The final straw for me and Windows was when I took the time to remove some annoying feature, cortana or edge, can't remember.
Then an update replaced my work.
It wasnt some 'uninstall program', but a multi-step process that involved registry editing.
I don't feel like I have control over Windows.
I think these two things help make Windows more usable.
