[โ] PabloSexcrowbar@piefed.social 31 points 14 hours ago (1 child) Not even next update. I ran a debloater script that removed OneDrive and within two hours it had been reinstalled with no intervention from me. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] wheezy@lemmy.ml 5 points 11 hours ago (2 children) Is there no solution to this? My first thought is an IP ban list outside of the computer itself. Put it on your home router maybe. I guess it could be getting installed from a binary that exists on the OS already. I haven't used windows in a long time. But it's wild how much work people have to do to decide which programs are or are not installed on their PC. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 4 child comments replies: [โ] 8oow3291d@feddit.dk 6 points 10 hours ago (1 child) Is there no solution to this? Linux... permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] wheezy@lemmy.ml 5 points 8 hours ago That's been my solution. The nerd in me just wants to know. I feel like windows and "windows debloat scripts" or the like have gotten worse together. It's like all the people that use to write cool programs or apps for Windows left for Linux and never looked back. (Except the game cracks I guess? Maybe that's even dead now though idk) I mean, it's a good thing. But, it surprises me how awful the nerd support is for Windows now. I guess it's so annoying to work with that no one even bothers anymore. It just feels like something that should have a universal solution by now. permalink fedilink source parent [โ] halcyoncmdr@piefed.social 2 points 10 hours ago (1 child) The solution for a lot of these random issues with reinstalling stuff is to not use weird scripts to do things you can just handle normally. Just uninstall it like a regular app and it doesn't come back on its own from my experience. I've literally never had it come back on any of my systems, my family's, or customers, by doing it that way. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [โ] Axolotl_cpp@feddit.it 1 point 10 hours ago I don't have that issue with script either, my guess is that's a regional thing, do you live in the EU too? permalink fedilink source parent
