Re: Deinstall parts of W10?

@Waseem Alkurdi admittedly, my router stops anything incoming "at the gates", and I have a habit of not clicking of fishy stuff. I can't guarantee this to work for everybody, but it honestly did work for me all these years - and trust me, I visit a _shitload_ of websites of, uh, questionable integrity. Naturally, I cannot _guarantee_ I'm not infected, but considering the level of paranoia I'm comfortable admitting to, I find it seriously unlikely. That said, I really mean it - no Windows machine I ever installed ever saw any updates, and they're still fine - if nothing else, Clam AV / Malwarebytes / Avast / Bitdefender / Spybot S&D would have spotted _something_ by now; but none of them ever did.
