That Lock Screen is not vestigial, it still loads and displays bing ads. You are the product, not the customer.

I have never seen an ad on my lock screen. Possibly because of all the stuff I have disabled and the fact that I use windows 10. I have some questions.

To answer your question this is a Windows 11 thing. Windows 10 will be my Windows 7 which was my Windows XP, which was my Windows 98.

Tldr skip every other one.
