As per https://meta.superuser.com/questions/8402/manufacturer-company-tags-are-back-again, [tag:microsoft] as a tag is not wanted: we have more specific tags to use for microsoft products ([tag:microsoft-excel], [tag:windows-10], etc).

It has been [cleaned up][1], [recreated][2], [cleaned up again][3], and [recreated again][4], with a current question count of 184. We also [discussed blocking it in 2016][5] with an *overwhelmingly* positive response; a [request to blocklist it was put to the CMs][6] but never actioned.

We've also since blocked [tag:google]: https://meta.superuser.com/q/12759/107240 for the same problem - can we also consider adding the [tag:microsoft] tag to the blocklist please?
