Congratulations to both the Windows 10 team on building such a beloved OS and the Windows 11 team for being able to flex enough upgradability pressure to overcome that lol

I’d be using win11, except an update killed my boot drive and when I tried to reinstall it my PC was magically not compatible with win11 despite running it for like 4 years.

yeah that usually happens when every current pre-built PCs and laptops are shipped with a windows 11 installed in them. I remember when win10 overtook win7 back in like 2017? or 2018 I think

Meh, I’ll stick with 10 iot ltsc until it’s support runs out in 2032.

now that most games do run on Linux just fine, is there a way to get Microsoft office to run on Linux?
that’s really the one thing holding me back to switch to Linux.
and no, i am not going to use any of those free subpar alternatives. ms word is simply better.

Every 2nd windows version is the one for me.
Had windows xp till 7. Hated 8 so I ignored it. Loved 10. Hate 11…

I was forced to switch at work; my old laptop was incompatible despite being a faster processor, 64GB RAM, and 1TB HDD, and larger screen by several inches. I’m not happy with the hardware compatibility issues.

Not that I want to go to 11. But why does it say my pc is not compatible with windows 11? Is an I5 9600k and a 2070 not enough??
LOST-MY_HEAD
So how does it work if I dont update to windows 11? Win 10 still works just not as secure?

Forced overtake tbh

I’ll be on 10 until the last day somewhere in October. Just like I was on 7 until the last day.

Oh my god, really? Windows 10 gets discontinued forcing to update and Windows 11 becomes the most used OS?
I feel like someone is sucking their own cock.
You-Asked-Me
Am I the only person, who just tunned off all of the targeted adds and news feeds, and just continued on just as happy as I was with Windows 10? Get all that shit turned off in the start menu, and its basically the same thing.

Because we are forced to? I would have stayed win10 if I haven’t seen the October news of ending support (not sure if im remembering the month right but its this year)

I literally can’t even switch over because Windows isn’t detecting my brand new Mobo is UEFI. I spent like three days trying to fix it and gave up.

same place lads? in 10-15 years when windows 12 surpasses w11 and we complain about W12 and talk about how much we loved w11

I wonder why so many people are reluctant to switch. Win11 is very much like Win10, and has a few extra features that some people can find useful. What’s the issue here?
Don’t tell me about requirements, I switched to Win11 when I still had a Ryzen 2600, an “unsupported” CPU. It was a 5-minute process to make it supported.

I just rolled back yesterday from 11 to 10 because of instability and blue screens. It works fine now. Gonna ride 10 out as long as possible.

I’ve moved to Linux for 95% of my desktop stuff now. For most things, it really does “just work” now.
I keep a W11 install for some games that need windows, but aside from that I never boot it except to play them. And every time I do it reminds me why I don’t.

I apologize, my PC and laptop kept hounding me so I updated day before yesterday

I moved two devices of mine on Linux Mint. Never again on Windows

the windows 11 hate is so wildly overblown. i upgraded when trying to troubleshoot an annoying tech problem, and it’s pretty much exactly the same as windows 10. all of the stuff people hate and rail against can either be turned off/changed in settings or fixed with some free software
beer_in_my_face
Here I am reinstalling 10 to get rid of 11 lol

Now if only they would add back the option to have the taskbar on ONLY the secondary monitor without having to use a third party program…
WHY would you remove functionality Microsoft? WHY?!
Hmasteryz
Because they forced it, that 24h2 auto upgrade on windows 10 is disgusting practice, ffs.
