Things I learned about performing a Windows 11 install to avoid bloatware if anyone is interested in trying this:
You can set it to English (World) on the time and currency format dropdown in Setup (I believe this has to be when you boot straight off the media and it doesn't appear to work if you run setup.exe from within Windows and this appears to be exclusive to Windows 11).
Once you've connected to the Internet, you will not see any of the pinned tiles for apps that you do not have installed, for example, no Netflix, WhatsApp, Spottify, LinkedIn, etc.
After setup completes, however, you need to switch the region back to US and it has to be done through Settings, not the region dialog (careful observation shows that the world entry will disappear from the country or region dropdown once you switch it back so I believe it's not even supposed to exist in the first place which is where the bug is).
You will have lots of nasty consequences if you don't switch the region back such as not being able to reach the activation servers.
You will, however, still see English (world) reflected on your sign in screen but as long as everything is set to US or another (supported) region for you everything should work fine. I figured out other stuff pertaining to setup today but I need to test those more before I publicly post them. #Windows#WindowsSetup#Windows11
