I highly doubt that Microsoft did that and more likely her little brother or somebody else who used the laptop and didn't told her did it.

Not this time, she lives alone, there's no one else who could have done it and she's not tech savvy, not at all, I bought and configured that laptop my self for her.

"... she's not tech savvy..." - well, I guess we found the culprit. You did let her use it with full admin rights, didn't you?

I recommend go to local policy and enable full audit for everything. When this happens in the future you'll have a clear picture of who/when/what.

She barely knows how to open outlook, let alone go to ms store and install a sw. Please don't try to defend MS, not this time. I found plenty of casual games installed in my work win10 PC. It's MS.

According to duck duck go, multiple people complained about Spotify auto installing on their windows box two days ago.

I completely stopped using windows in the 8.1 days (forced telemetry was the last straw). I can't imagine dealing with the sorts of gaslighting you are experiencing.

Happily, a combination of steam proton and dosbox run dos / windows games on my Linux desktop more smoothly than native ever did, and that was my last missing use case.
