Ads on windows? Where?
Windows 11 introduced start menu ads recently in update KB5036980, thankfully they can disabled, but I'm not 100% sure it will stay that way

Right, ever since the release of Windows 11 I'm using Explorer Patcher to hide that annoying recommended section, and to restore the windows 10 explorer.
That's a smart solution, I'll have to look into trying it on my work PC (where they force me to use windows 11), thank you for the recommend!
More like where are they not
I literally don't have any. I disabled the recommended section in the start menu and as far as I know they don't appear anywhere else.
One drive, edge, one drive some more, copilot and then office365 for good measure
I use OneDrive every day, there's no ads. And nobody uses Edge anyways...
