    I love that Microsoft has Microsoft developed applications on its update/upgrade block list.

    It's a good reminder that companies arent as cohesive as most people think especially when they are as large as Microsoft.

    Yes, for example searching other sites with the same article, using the reader mode in the search results of Andisearch.

    Is any of those free, small and not invasive so I can install it just to prevent an update to Winshit 11?

    The iCloud thing is free. I think it adds a system tray application but I don’t think it does anything if you don’t log in with an Apple account.

    The Realtek Wireless driver should also do nothing if you don’t have the device.

    ExplorerPatcher wouldn't be necessary if they actually stopped removing basic features from Explorer that have existed for over a decade

    I'm still on Win 10. What does ExplorerPatcher do?

    For me personally, I like having my taskbar at the top of the screen. MS removed the ability to change the position of the taskbar in W11. It does a lot more than that, potentially giving you an almost XP like experience if that's what you want.
