Are there different versions of Windows 11? Mine doesn't show ads at all.

I'm curious about this. Do either of you run a custom dns for blocking ads, like adguard or pihole?

Did you turn off a bunch of stuff when you first got the PC?

Do you have corporate policies being applied in your registry?

I have Win 11 Pro. I had Starfield ads on my lock screen for a while. I also had those search recommendations, but that's it. Now I have nothing. Maybe it's related to EU?

Yeah, you all get all the nice things we don't in the US.
