For home computers, there's now "Windows S".[1] This is totally locked down.
"To increase security and performance, Windows 11 in S mode runs only apps from Microsoft Store."
It's possible, for now, to turn off Windows S mode. For now. Usually. The Windows Store server has to approve turning it off. In an enterprise configuration, some in-house server has to approve.

As much as I enjoy seeing someone trash Microsoft, this is just a dumb take. Like I said to the other user, how do you think software development happens? Microsoft wants people to develop using Windows [1][2][3]. You can only do that by installing additional software. This is not, and never will go away. Yes, some corporate setting will have locked down computers, but thats how its already been for several decades.
