Microsoft Launches Windows 11 Operating System

Not exactly, because 10 is the biggest garbage. Vista beautiful, 7 and XP was the best.

just a matter of opinon. I would never go back to any of those old operating systems. 10 has been flawless for me.

And i'm surprised you are on win 7 which was EOL years ago an no longer supported.

But then again if your workflow is only playing games on that machine then it works.
 
Remember Microsoft's motto:

"If it ain't broke, fix it 'til it is."
 
Windows 10 LTSC I run at current. No store no cortana no Edge. I have full control over the OS with the UAC turned completely off. Administrator account is disabled but there is a password on it just in case some hacker gets happy he got in. Windows 10 will be my last Windows OS I use. Microsoft is starting to piss alot of people off. Quite Frankly I think they should go back to there roots. When Windows was fully customizable. Like Windows 2000 or XP ish. When you could hand pick what you wanted installed Period. Windows 7 started the preinstalled crap but at least in features you could Uninstall them. Windows 8 started the full preinstalled crap and store BS. Apps from store were not simple programs. Had to use powershell and some scripting to get rid of them. You can do the same in Windows 10 in power shell using the "Get-AppxPackage | out-Gridview -Passthru | Remove-AppxPackage" with that command you can uninstall any apps on your user profile. Also with the command "Get-AppxProvisionedPackage -online | out-Gridview -Passthru | Remove-AppxProvisionedPackage -online" you can uninstall all the preloaded crap when a new profile on your computer is made. But in 21h1 update using that command they removed the option to uninstall Desktop App Installer. Which means the store can install anything it wants without asking you.

I would love to sell a car to Sat at Microsoft and say to him heres your car. You have no options for seats, color, engine, tires, radio, nothing at all. Also we control your service on your car you cannot take it to anywhere else to get fixed. You must always come to the dealer. All oil changes and maintance have to be done with US no choices. Maybe he would get the picture why PPL hate Windows 11 I wonder.
 
all I got was blah blah blah, win 10 v2.0 optimized with intel blah blah blah ;)
 
Hi,
I'll wait for a real website to say it not Tom's spamathon network lol
 
Microsoft Store like Office, Cortana, One Drive, Skype, Spotify.... never used it. Just bloatware to me. But it's sad that I get stuck with Windows O/S for the majority of PC gaming titles. Of course, there is the entire electronic component / GPU market that's in complete chaos. Oh, and the never ending hackers exploiting for crypto blood money. But that's an issue with companies that got rid of their IT departments.
 
I find it Funny that with the program WiNtoUSB I can with my USB transfer the OS via Active@ [I pirate yes sue Me] and looking for to the next update :slap: ;)

I'm on the old 775 with a Modded Xeon E5450 Windows just works and I'm glad the program WiNtoUSB exist

Here's the official list of supported CPUs... it is quite short...

Intel (8th gen or newer)

AMD (Ryzen 2000 or newer)

WTF

While the list is short it does give people about 4 years to upgrade if they want to use win 11 if not they can just stay on win 10

I think it's okay? By 2025 those will be very old (Intel has the mitigations issue and Ryzen wasn't exactly stellar in its first gen)
 
Sadly none of this was surprising, from what I recall the OS was a revised version of Windows 10 without legacy components made for tablets.

Hi,
Yeah that's a good example lol
But won't run on linux at all
 
Well at some point If you really hate windows or not willing to pay for the license, gaming on Linux have never been that good with proton. And Lutris make everything super simple.

Yeah, I don't like the idea of just shoving Linux in anyone's face every time they complain about Windows, but some things have changed. LibreOffice is a decent office suite, cloud services are platform-agnostic, Steam and Proton are making good progress, graphics drivers are rather fine... If they're not tied down to Windows-exclusive software (is Wine still the pain in the ass that it was a couple years ago?), it can be worth considering switching OS.
 
Extremely disturbing the only feature they cared to talk about is the need for a Microsoft account.
