This popped up on my work laptop yesterday. Very annoying.

    I wouldn’t know how that feels. Did it once and haven’t had an issue since.

    I think some people here like to shit on windows just to shit on windows and haven’t actually used win11

      Maybe I’ll get a better response to my question here, since you seem to view windows 11 positively and have a positive vote score, so others who are seeing these comments might feel the same.

      Are there any reasons other than the sunsetting of win 10 or the relative newness of 11 to want to use Windows 11?

      The only thing that stood out in the other thread where I asked this was support for multiple virtual desktops.

        Unfortunately, I don’t have a good answer for you.

        I built a new Pc last year and decided to put win11 on it to judge the OS for myself. In all reality, it doesn’t feel much different than win10. Boot up is fast, startup is fast, everything just works.

        Sorry I can’t provide more info.

        I mean might as well use the latest version. HDR improvements and the nicer UI are things I like about 11 over 10.

      I’ve used Windows 11 a lot

      I’ve made all the changes

      Ultimately, switching to Linux is what it took to get rid of the garbage, and didn’t have to disable anything on the new system.

      Can we not defend this bullshit, please? Or dismiss it as not that bad? It’s bad. Really bad. Stop pretending it’s okay because you can go through a dozen settings, half a dozen registry hacks, and a handful of third party programs to make the system work almost as well as it did a decade ago.

          PEBKAC

          Sticking your head in that sand, I’m sure it’ll work out for you, eventually.

            Not sure what point you are trying to make here.

            I’m not having any computer problems.

              Not sure what point you are trying to make here.

              You’re not acknowledging the issue of close source OS’s that nag you with unwanted notifications.

                Why would I acknowledge an issue that doesn’t exist for me?

                You are barking up the wrong tree here bud. I use the right tool for the job, for me that means windows for my personal machine, Linux for work or special purpose machines. And Mac to write code.
