Regardless, I’d even just opt for a, “don’t fucking bother me about literally anything,” button. But then Microsoft can’t push whatever bullshit product they’re trying to give you exposure to or sell.

microsoft's version of 'hard mode' is removing gui for settings--hiding them them in registry entries or (unavailable in 'home' edition) group policy.. or removing them completely and needing actual hacks of binaries to do.

Their hard mode is PowerShell nowadays.

I’ll admit, POSH is quite powerful, especially DSC. I can’t imagine being a Windows sysadmin back in the 90s/2000s before it appeared and fully matured.

Yeah, imagine having to use Batch (or maybe Visual Basic 🤷♂️) for scripts.
