Open computer settings

Click on Accessibility on the left-hand menu

Scroll down the Accessibility menu and click on the Keyboard Option

Under the "related settings" tab, click "Typing" which should have a description of "spellcheck, autocorrect, text suggestions."

Turn off the AI "correct misspelled words"

and most importantly: turn off Typing Insights.

[ID: a screenshot of the above mentioned Windows 11 settings, showing that Typing Insights is now turned off, with the following description from Microsoft: "Windows is using artificial intelligence to help you type To help you save time and type efficiently, Windows can learn to suggest words, autocorrect spelling mistakes, and interpret swiped typing. Take a look at the insights below to see up-to-the-minute stats on how Windows has learned to improve typing for you. These stats are stored only on this device and Microsoft does not collect the typing insights data." End ID]

"But Mx. November, it says right there Microsoft doesn't collect the typing insights data!"

I mean, yeah, it says that..... for *now.*

It also only specifies that Microsoft themselves don't collect it, and they wouldn't have made this something that I was automatically, secretly opted in for without my knowledge if they didn't have something to be gained by me not knowing it exists!

I only found this because a cat walked on the keyboard and turned on Filter Keys and while trying to figure out why my keyboard was just making chirping noises instead of typing, I happened to click on "typing insights" by accident.

(I just made it up now)

If you still have it (or were planning on downloading it through other means) make sure you get everything you were planning to transfer moved before then, and move any pokemon out of bank you don't wish to transfer.

If you have any Ribbon Masters that you need to transfer to newer games, now is the time to do that.

If you need an alternative to Pokemon Bank and your 3Ds/2Ds is hacked, you can install PKSM (a pokemon save editor for the 3Ds/2Ds) to use as pokemon storage. You can also back up your saves through Checkpoint and use PKHex to create files for individual pokemon to keep on your computer.

Below is a screenshot of the news from the pokemon website.
