Have to use Windows for work (I've asked), the ads have been getting worse and worse on my work laptop. Today got a game ad notification... That's clearly too far, right? Like I have to clear notifications, so I have to see it

One can directly install ubuntu on hyper-v, without any additional 3rd party tools. They just need hyper-v enabled (it's installed by default). It's not user friendly, it's the usual gui mess as one could expect from a ms product. But at least it's preinstalled, which is convenient for a work laptop.

Whether IT security department would allow this... It's another story

Edit. Fixed typo
