DARK SECRETS: 14 features you should disable on windows 11 | Rare Historical Photos

Windows 11 disabled features.

Windows 11 comes with a plethora of features and functionalities, catering to a wide range of users. However, not all of these features are universally essential or desirable. 

For example, while notifications can be helpful, they can also break the workflow with the sounds and banners, making you less productive. The Taskbar comes with various features, such as Search and Weather, but you can always search from the Start menu and the weather through the Widgets dashboard, so you can safely remove these icons. You can also remove and disable Copilot if you're not interested in using AI.
