          It could be okay, depends what they are stripping out. Windows is very bloated by default, so the idea is sound.

            They are removing things like the desktop wallpaper, Registry Editor and MMC management console and more.

                  PC has dramas? Reinstall! None of this troubleshooting nonsense.

                  That being said, there isn’t a published target audience. Perhaps they really want the kiosk business...

                    I actually just reset my gaming laptop, both the wireless interface and the Ethernet were getting piss poor performance.

                    Next step perform a clean install.

                    It's gonna suck having to reinstall everything tonight though. . .

                      eh?
                      To me it appears they are trying to make a new OS - one they've had since Windows 8, but has gained no traction at all.

                        Nothing new or different, same OS just with fewer packages installed.

                              Yeah, @coliver told us about it and I was dealing with something similar on some AWS servers yesterday.

                                    In other news, Windows blows and essentially cripples great hardware.
