Windows 10: microsoft intrusion into my space

Hello. I would like to know how I keep the "My Microsoft Account" intrusion from entering settings. It now takes up over 50% of my vertical space when I enter settings and it has nothing to do with what I want. I am the customer and the user and should be in charge, not Microsoft!


I go to settings to change different local details on my computer. I don't want to see anything about "One Drive" or "Windows Update" or "Rewards" - over and over, every time I simply want to change or check a local setting on my computer. Now I'm having to waste more time writing all this about how to get rid of it!!!


I want to be able to go to settings, go straight to making a selection about my objective, and NOT BE HARRASSED by Microsoft.


Is this possible, with a simple, clear solution to resolve this intrusion?

Microsoft To Do -- how to change from double spaced printing

I switched over from Wunderlist. Was able to print lists from Wunderlist, single spaced. To Do prints double spaced only, and there seems to be no way to change that. Anyone figure out how to change to single spaced? My first contact with Office support
suggested making changes to the settings in Microsoft Word. I tried but that did not help with To Do. Second suggestion was to contact Windows support, suggesting it must then be something in Windows Settings. Wasn't able to get connected with Windows support,
so just checking here if anyone has an answer on how to get To Do to print single spaced lists?
