Unwanted features smuggled into my computer without asking me to agree!!!!! Breach of Privacy

Open Letter to Microsoft - all Microsoft not just to the Edge Developers.

 

Dear M/Edge, OneDrive and Quick Access Developers!

 

I DO NOR APPRECIATE YOUR INVENTION! IT IS SLOWING MY HP COMPUTER TO THE SPEED OF A SNAIL. I did everything I could as per your instructions in Edge settings. YOU SIMPLY SMUGGELED THIS APP INTO MY COMPUTER WITHOUT ME AGREEING - NOW I CANNOT EVEN STOP IT VIA THE TASK MANAGER. IT JUST KEEPS "GOING AND GOING AND GOING" 🙂 I make it funny but believe me I am not entertained at all.

I VERY MUCH DISLIKE MICROSOFT ever since Windows 10! My Windows 8 is now under the unwanted spell of Edge, OneDrive etc. etc. etc. I just use the computer for what it was meant for: make it easier to bank etc. I DO NOT PLAY GAMES I AM NOT ADDICTED TO GAMES EVEN IS YOUR PROFIT REQUIRES ME TO BE ADDICTED LIKE THE KIDS NOWADAYS. I am computer literate but nowadays I am scratching my head: it takes half an hour to go through to do banking due to all the so-called "Updates" that smuggle things like OneDrive into my computer - I am bombarded every day with these things whilst I just want to complete a simple task.

SO, THE OTHER DAY I WENT TO THE BANK in person INSTEAD OF ONLINE USE OF THEIR SERVICES.

For the sake of "enhanced experience" Microsoft is sending humanity - human beings - to depend on the imagined "cyber" space AKA nightmare. I prefer cooking, enjoying gardening and the great beautiful Ocean here in Australia and not sitting in front of the computer trying to figure out the next "update" etc. I could spend hours as to why I think humanity's demise is going to be Microsoft.

I have spoken.

I want Quick Access, OneDrive and Edge out of my computer!!!!! I was quite happy with the Recently Used Files option in Vista - just one example! OK. Please advise how do I get rid of these features smuggled into my private laptop without my even knowing about it. I VANT THEM OUT!

Regards
