Basically, if you select an EEA country during first install you get different options in Windows. I’d recommend anyone who needs to do a fresh windows install, or who is able to regedit their existing install, choose an EEA country.
I’d recommend Linux over Windows for most folks, however.
They used to have a version called N (for instance Windows 10 Professional N) that was the version that could be sold in Europe and had the browser selection menu among other things, but I am not sure if they still do that with 11.
That Windows can still be sold in EU with the forced online account?
