    I can't disconnect an external USB drive, printers or speakers because I'm disabled and this is a Dell 7020 tower. I have no non-microsoft antivirus software and I will NOT delete Microsoft 365. There's PLENTY of free disk space (I have a 1TB SSD) and there's NO option to > Check for Windows updates. I've already tried an in-place reinstall of Windows 11, 25H2 but it won't complete. I've run DISM and SFC are there are NO errors.
