    Many of us will be upgrading to Windows 11 in the near future, when Windows 10 goes out of support. It's not necessarily a good experience, because of its relentless advertising, data collection, and use of AI.


    This talk will focus on practical steps to "tame" Windows 11 - quash the ads, stop the data collection, turn off the AI, and make the user interface more friendly. There are a lot of steps required, but it's basically just following a checklist. We may be stuck with Windows 11, but we can make it a better experience.


     Register by Monday, Dec. 2.
