Of course, but that is only a problem...

...for files like these. The vast majority of files will never have that problem. And for those situations there's ExFAT or NTFS.

Why would this be disturbing?

Maybe as disturbing as these =

I was trying to post pics of my vista and xp boxes but it seems that I don't know how to upload pics to this website. Looks like I figured it out now. Lol

I fixed it. Didn't know how you post pics to this website. Works now. One post above yours.

attach files, post an image link, or use windows snipping tool (win + shift +s) and then ctrl-V into the post

the modern snipping tool is glorious, since you dont need to save it as a local file first

I'm on the phone so maybe that was the reason why I failed but thx. I do know about the snipping tool in Windows.

Without reading through this thread, will windows 11 be worth upgrading to on release? I have not tested it but I figure many of you have an opinion on it.

Hi,
If you read a little you might find out not many machines meet new security requirements
The one that do will install or upgrade to 11
Some not supported will use workarounds to install 11

If you do critical work or anything you consider sufficiently important on that computer, you'll be better off waiting a little. I expect most bugs will be ironed out, but better safe than sorry.

Also, as ThrashZone just said, you'll have to take the new requirements into account, so even if your machine fully supports them, you might not be able to do do an in-place upgrade, but rather you'll have to do a clean install

theFOoL · Sep 21, 2021

I'd say WiN11 is just a skin with just a spare piece of little features that if not only a few would care for really. Stick with 10. I have WiN11 Beta and Dev on my 775 Build which I made my reg file hack. Easy to do as you just look up and copy and paste the code to a text file

That depends. Does your PC meet the system requirements? If so, do you want to run the configuration microsoft "requires"? If not, are you ok with employing work-around measures to force an install?

This is the first time in history that installing a new version of Windows is not a straight-forward task thanks to the dumbass requirements being imposed. The improvements are worth the effort(IMHO), but the effort will have a few hoops to jump through. Many of us here have employed the aforementioned work-arounds successfully and would be happy to help you do so if you wish. Just stick around and ask after the release.

We don't disagree very often, on this point we do. After excluding the moronic hardware requirements, I like 11 very much and think it is wonderful improvement over the pile of poo that is Windows 10(comparatively).

According to Microsoft, I do meet all system requirements.

That's a good thing. Many companies did not even bother with drivers for 64-bit at the time until WiN7

For then maybe but it gives me a bad vibe today.

Do they even have a 32-bit Win11 image?

freeagent · Sep 22, 2021

I feel like I am the only one who liked vista lol. Those CDs were nice to see, I didn’t know they made a 10 disk. Do people still use those? The only disk I have had was a 98se disk that came with my HP haha..

I believe you meant Windows Vista SP1 64 Bit.

I had zero issues running Vista 64 well before the Windows 7 release.

Yep, and I'm still trying to find my stack (Can't remember how many floppies) of Window 3.1 disks.

Time sure does fly - I started back in 1985 with DOS (Think it was v6.0) and read the A5 hard cover manual, which was about 2" thick, from cover to cover about 6 times.

And the pc = IBM 8086 compatible at AU$7,000.00, with a 10Mb HDD + Green screen mono CRT monitor !!!!
