Microsoft crowbars new ‘recommendations’ for PC Game Pass into Windows 11, so excuse me while I start beating my anti-advert drum (again)

Windows 11 is testing a new advertisement in the Settings app, targeting Game Pass Ultimate and PC Game Pass subscribers. The ad allows users to share a 14-day free trial with up to five friends. Microsoft continues its push for suggestions within the desktop OS. The update also includes improvements to the Recall feature and a notification for OneDrive users to resume working on files from their phone. The advertisement has sparked conversations about the need for a system-wide switch to disable such recommendations. Users can provide feedback on the new ad and advocate for the option to turn off all recommendations throughout the system.
