Go back and the remove option is locked.

Surprising, but then I haven't used Windows since Win 7. Maybe things have changed.

So is Mac the solution? Can I have some control for a change? I'm after the ultimate simplicity, the equivalent of a senior flip phone.

No real computer is going to be that simple these days. I switched from MS to Apple a few years back, and love it, but there is a learning curve and plenty of stuff is different in a way that you may find annoying. I think, IMO, MacOS is better than modern Windows, and I was a diehard Windows guy for a long time and have tried lots of flavors of Linux over the years.

All I do is watch YT, do emails and come here. Oh, I use Google and Wiki a lot. That's it.

Watch Youtube, email, and surf the web...

Sounds to me like you need an iPad. But there are/will be limitations on a 'pad' compared to a real computer.
