IF YOU'RE NOT IN THE EU, you can use O&O ShutUp to help you turn off the more intrusive aspects of Windows with ease.

Not to be pedantic, but this will work fine in Australia.

There's no reason to say "If you're in the US". I think you mean "for everyone else" or "for those not in the EU".

If you're in the US,

Is it US specific, or do you just mean if you're not in the EU?

Thank you, I'm not American but MS has so many 'features' that have been destroying my sanity, I will look into this tool when I'm back at my desktop 👍
