How reliable is this?
Call me cynical or whatever you like, I don’t trust anything that isn’t a physical switch.
Probably reliable until the next "feature and experience update" where they move or remove the setting and default it back to allow for all users again and all the soulless advertisers cum their pants because their malware delivered impression counts just went up again
I already had it set, and so far my LG monitor hasn't caused an LG software to be installed. But I'm on Windows 10 and I guess there's a chance this software is only for 11.
Microsoft tends to undo settings they don’t like during updates.
It's so fucking annoying too
It should be a crime.
