Are you a user of Windows 10 at home or at work and tired of that little weather icon and the panel of fake news that opens when you accidentally run the cursor over it? Are you sick of the extra time Microsoft Edge takes to open because its busy loading MSN toxicity which interrupts your workflow and depresses your mood? In this video we're going to cover the process of turning these anti-features off. It will take less time than this introduction already took.

1. Gaze upon this fresh and clean Windows 10 desktop

2. Right-click the task bar

3. In the menu that appears, select "News and Interests"

4. Select "Turn off"

5. Open Microsoft Edge

6. Click the gear in the upper right hand corner

7. Select "Custom"

8. Click the arrow near Quick Links and click "Off"

9. Under Background, click "Off"

10. Click the arrow near "Content" and click "Content off"
