Kudos to you for fixing it, but also people are totally correct to criticize the default experience. It shouldn’t take “obscure” software to make it usable.
Fair, but I see using “obscure” software as no different than installing different modules in Linux to customize it how you see fit. Just like how nobody’s forcing you to use a more “traditional” distro like Fedora or Debian, nobody’s forcing you to put up with a default Windows setup, either.
Mate you can safely use Mint out of the box, there’s no need to gut it like a fish unlike windows. Also, I’m betting your current setup will break within the next 3 security patches unless you installed LTSC.

I’ve been using O&O Shutup for years on my Win10 without anything breaking. (Not LTSC, just regular Enterprise.)
