The heroes using the early Windows 11 builds have come across many features and bugs, which we have discussed in detail. Today, we are going to look at a new issue that is making life difficult for early adopters. Let’s talk about whether Windows 11 has ads and if so, how to remove them.

Windows 11 has too many ads

Windows 7 was one of the last major operating systems without ads. With Windows 10, Microsoft adopted an ad-first policy, pushing ads for first-party products without warning. It even secretly showed “Upgrade to Windows 10” ads to Windows 7 and 8.1 users, coercing them to install the latest version of the Windows OS. The system isn’t going to change with Windows 11.

So yeah, if you do encounter occasional ads while doing chores in Windows 11, don’t worry. They’re inserted by Microsoft themselves and are meant to push you towards their services.

That said, you wouldn't see any ads like you see all over the web. After all, it's a paid product, not freeware or freemium.
