Hi, my pc running on Win11 is consuming a lot of data. I have windows automatic updates turned off but still the data is being consumed at a high rate. Is there any way to see what software/apps are consuming the internet data?

    Go to Settings–> Network & Internet --> Data Usage. This is how you can access the data to see which apps are using the most data. The steps might be different on Win 11.

    Did you purge the bloatware that comes with Windows?

        Keep care because trying to erase it sometimes will break the system.
