    Cant Stop Skype Windows 10


    Just got a new laptop, and its got the stickiest program Ive ever seen. Skype started up and signed in on its own. I havent installed it or ever signed in with it myself.


    I go to uninstall programs, and it's nowhere in the list. I right click it in the toolbar, and there is no Quit option. I go to task manager and end task on it. After a minute it pops back up. I found the folder it's in and tried to delete it, but as sole owning admin of this laptop I dont have permission to delete it.

    :)

    And not only that but also:

    Windows 10 Anniversary Update will double the number of Start menu ads/promoted apps

    Sure, all that stuff can be uninstalled but then again who needs more crapware

    edit: without that W10 clean installation could've been much faster just like on ltsb version

    clean out-of-box start menu on W10 ltsb

    Windows 10 and Skype

    What's Skype? What's instant messaging? Is that like texting or something? God I hate texting...*Shadedshun :shadedshu:

    So I probably hate Skype too.
