Give a man a record and you feed him for a day.
Teach a man to research, and you feed him for a lifetime.

Part of the integration of all devices - and an assumption that if you're running a Windows PC then you must have an Xbox  ::)

PS Its always handy to check these settings after any major Windows upgrades as microsoft often disagree with users choices and switch a lot of them back on by default.

I knew Xbox was on the computer but why is it in the background apps?

My goodness Hallmark -- what have you found!

I managed to locate the Background Apps, thank you -- no idea what most of them are. 'Get Office' was NOT listed -- but 'My Office' was there.

As I have my own version of Microsoft Office -- would it be safe to turn off 'My Office' do you think?

Maybe because that is 'on' - I keep getting the notifications welcoming me to 'New Office' and inviting a download.
