Having worked with preinstalling Windows with a major pc manufacturer, I will say that it is already such a freaking effort that nobody would want to do even more effort to install malware on top.
Notwithstanding so called partner apps… If there’s anything in those, I can’t say.

One funny thing about it is that I bought a pc with linux preinstalled, but reinstalled it anyway, because I don’t trust an installation from the oem.
It made me wonder how, in the windows world, we simply trust the manufacturer with that.
