I freaked out yesterday when I got this pop up too. Like, okay, I heard about ads in Windows 11, but stay the fuck out of my 10.

Perhaps use redirect scripts or plugins or apps. Windows often about registry so do try that.

You could try clicking Yes once, and then immediately switching it back, either to DuckDuckGo or Google.

I don't know what people are doing in Windows to get all these ads. I've never seen a single one.
