So their isn’t even a “no” option? I’m assuming theirs an X at the top of the window but that’s still scummy either way.

The 'no' option is rebooting into a live USB drive, mounting the windows drive, and laughing manically as you remove this shit by force. Then reboot and be happy with your murder.

'motherfucker I own you!'

Many if the games I play are only marginally compatable, so here I stay

Have you checked out Proton? It's made huge leaps in Linux gaming.

Ye, had a discussion about this like 5 days ago. Progress is good but not there yet for me.

If you own it why do you need to boot around it to fix it?

You don't own shit but yourself installing Windows.

well if there is no free tier it doesn't make sense to add a button like that, that is I assume this is merely an optional thing,if you want one drive storage,pay for it,free trial or exit.

There is an X, but it's effective enough for me to almost click, make this post, then immediately, while knowing the button was there, actually click.

Microsoft treats the X button as yes anyway. see windows 10 upgrade mess
