The software maker will use the Recommended section of the Start menu, which usually shows file recommendations, to suggest apps from the Microsoft Store.

My windows 10 doesn't have ads. Can it be disabled in 11 as well I wonder?

they disabled the apps that did recently afaik.

i got tired of turning ads off on win10 and updates turning them on again.

That's why I disabled updates in the registry after they updated me to windows 11. They can take my windows 10 when the sun dies and I will switch back to Linux, again.
