if youre dead set to keep windows, just disconnect it from the internet.

People argue that Internet should be treated as a utility because it's required so I'm not sure removing the Internet would really work.

ive had it disconnected from my win10 machine for 4 years now. broadband is not a utility and isnt likely to ever be so the expense to bring it out here in a consistently usable form is still prohibitive. those of us in the wilds of the world have to use sattelite or nothing outside of basic cell service
