Does shutup10 allow you to decide which updates (if any) you want to install, uninstall the Microsoft Store (and keep it uninstalled), uninstall Edge (and keep it uninstalled), remove other unwanted bloatware (and keep it removed), control all group policy settings (without having them reverted every time MS feels like it), and receive security update support for several years longer than the retail version?
No?
