Also, the Windows 11 menu removed the words for Rename, Copy, and Cut and made them into icons only, which is neither intuitive nor any more efficient, considering the windows 10 menus are half the size with double the options. Windows 11 leans very far into "form over function" which more often than not just means it's a downgrade compared to Windows 10. Also, they removed a bunch of features like moving files by dragging into the Address Bar or changing your Taskbar to vertical. Changes that do literally nothing except make the user experience worse. It's baffling.

    All the advantages of Windows 11:
    - New CPU scheduler allows to use E-cores correctly
    - Microsoft Edge is faster than ever, because almost the entire UI runs on Webview2 at this point and reuses resources for multiple processes on login.
    That's pretty much it. Don't care about E-cores or Edge? No reason to update then.

    Microsoft has evolved into an annoying and aggravating company. They act like they own the computer their OS is installed on. We actually pay for the "privilege" to use it--until MS decides you can't. Windows 11 is annoying. I have built my own computers for 20 years so I can have exactly what I want. A year ago my wife asked for a new build for her self. I ordered everything, built it and used a Windows 10 license to activate Windows 11. I was able to bypass the Microsoft account requirement. I find Widows 11 to be a time waster with its menus. More than one click is required to get through the simple right click menu. The TPM requirement to install Win 11 is absurd. As long as a TPM socket is detected on the board the OS will install. TPM itself is not included on most boards. So how many people will actually go to the annoyance to search for a TPM for their board? Yes, a stupid requirement.
    I built myself a new desktop a few years ago. I included components to do video and audio recording and editing. I received a free copy of Windows 8 Pro, which didn't impress me and came directly from Microsoft. Then I was able to do the free upgrade to Win 10 Pro and encountered no problems. I am quite satisfied with my build and Win 10. I have NO reason to scrap my rig for a new one just for the "thrill" of using Win 11. When MS discontinues support for Win 10 I won't care one bit. Microsoft's decision to force upgrades to "new" hardware is not eco friendly. Why fill landfills with perfectly usable computers and other electronic devices? I will still be able to use my computer and Win 10. Win 11 will not have any advantages over what I am able to do with Win 10.

      @@prakashm1468 You probably think you are funny or something, but the truth is, Win XP was the first truly stable OS that could support a wide variety of tasks pretty smoothly. You can have work of any flavor that required a computer and be able to do it without trouble on that OS.
      Win 7 was the powerhouse, though. It had innovative design from Vista combined with the robust programming of XP, making that OS truly capable, with support of apps from the oldest 8-bit to the new 64-bit and all the related libraries and frameworks in place. It could literally do anything you wanted with it.
      Win 10 decided it was to be "light", though, probably following the "mobile" focus Win 8 had, so Microsoft cut off the majority of what made Win 7 so diverse and friendly. It would only run things released in the recent years and would have to get backports for anything older. Ironically, those backports would utilize the unwieldy Windows Update system that exists to this day, which did not solve the problem with Win 10, only made it worse. The core system files would be replaced with placeholders and spread chaotically around the hard drive, spreading security thin and making that system particularly vulnerable to attacks against isolated files.
      And now we have Win 10 rebranded as Win 11, and locked out of most hardware, too, in the name of "security" - which as mentioned above is a self-made problem with the entire structure of Win 10. Not that TPM is even remotely capable of solving that self-made problem anyway.
      I find it incredibly ironic that if Microsoft decided to continue WIn 7, they would have never lost users who fled to Mac or Linux, increasing their profits. In their pursuit of short-term sales of a new "lean" OS, they tanked their long-term gain from faithful customers.

Don't get me wrong, I'd love to run a system with Plasma DE, I don't think ANYTHING looks better than that. However, while you can work most stuff on Linux these days, there are some specifics I use, like audio, as I said, and negative scanning that just don't run well. And games are getting there, but it's gonna be a while 'til Proton can handle it all. I do wish to say one day I'm joining the Linux community... So I do hope you guys start making drivers for these specific stuff. Sure, it's open source, I could learn to make the drivers myself... But I most definitely won't. Some things are worth the fiddling around... And some others I just wanna plug, play (the guitar or whatever I'm playing, and yes) and hit record.

    My laptop has Windows 11. It works. I have no trouble using it overall since I mostly use 3rd-party applications. I like the UI standardization work done so far. I hate Show More Options on the Desktop. If I want to use 7-Zip, the Nvidia control panel, or the Radeon Control Panel, I have to hit Show More Options. I hate the forced bottom taskbar; I like left-hand taskbar.
    The laptop has a Ryzen 5 5000 series CPU and an RTX 3060 GPU, so it'll have more GPU power than many Intel CPUs without a discreet GPU especially. The laptop has both a Radeon Integrated and a GeForce Discreet, and it's been a pretty good combo surprisingly. It's fun to see the two control panels side-by-side, especially how old Nvidia's looks. Okay. I was able to hide the search bar and Copilot icon. The task bar feels like it has a ton of room now. Task View is actually kind-of nice, so it stays, but it was in Windows 10 as well. The snap is a cool idea, but man do I fight it. If there was a way I could disable it, it would be nicer. There's also smart features that I had to tweak.
    One huge reason my desktop still has Windows 10, the TPM requirement actually requires my main storage drive to be done in a certain way. I do not feel like messing with the partition type on the main SSD. The CPU on the desktop is a Ryzen 5000 and has all other requirements.

    My boss is a contract engineer for NASA. He bought a brand new Alienware laptop to be able to get work done. He opened it up, saw Windows 11 on it, and squinted in disgust.
    I went to grab a coffee in the breakroom. When I returned to his office, he was already installing Windows 10 on it.

I'll be on Windows 10 until it dies and I need a new PC, which will then have the current OS. I feel like that's how most people go about it since there is very little incentive for non-techies to upgrade ever.

    I have my problems with win10, but win11 is a joke. In addition to your points, to properly set up the OS you basically have get rufus to install it with edited registries. I don't want to use a microsoft account, I don't want to set dumbass security questions, or stare at a screen for ten minutes while a condecending text box tells me its almost ready.
    I don't want ads in my desktop or basic applications, I don'f want copilot to exist at all, and that recall bullshit they were talking about a while ago is absolutely fucking unacceptable. Not only does it take screenshots of whatever you're doing, it can't even bother to properly secure the data its collecting.
    And what does it offer that win10 doesn't anyway? A slightly uglier UI? Notepad now has tabs and darkmode? They moved all the system tools and menus again? Still locking baisc features like RDP behind the pro edition? What incredible innovation. Fantastic. Truly amazing for the flagship product of one of the most powerful companies in the world.

      With some third party software, you can make windows 11 into Windows 10, including getting bak the old notepad if you want. The old Windows 10 context menus and taskbar are still in the operating system code, all that's missing are the system icons which are easily downloaded by the program I use ot make windows 11 useable.

Shouldn't need to use third-party applications to achieve this level of customizability in this operating system, however.

    "Why No One Is Using Windows 11"? A better question would be "Why would anyone WANT to use Windows 11?"
    Why would people want a bigger and slower OS that doesn't bring anything to the table to justify burning the extra watts and time? If Microsoft wants people to want to switch, they need to release something light weight that actually has benefits. Perhaps re-release a security patched Windows XP. No news. No Ads. No new tracking. Stop screwing with the start menu and control panel. Just give us an operating system that allows us to run the software we want. Wait.... what's the point of an operating system again? How did we stray so far from the path?

      @user-lx5do4zc6n actually, no. when jerry nixon (a *microsoft developer*) said that windows 10 would be the last version of windows, microsoft ended up standing by what he said, or atleast did not say that he was wrong. in a statement to network world, official microsoft spokesperson said this,
      "Recent comments at Ignite about Windows 10 are reflective of the way Windows will be delivered as a service bringing new innovations and updates in an ongoing manner, with continuous value for our consumer and business customers. We aren’t speaking to future branding at this time, but customers can be confident Windows 10 will remain up-to-date and power a variety of devices from PCs to phones to Surface Hub to HoloLens and Xbox. We look forward to a long future of Windows innovations.”
      they did not specify that it was one developer, or even disagree. they even said that theyd keep it up to date! you'd think they'd correct it or tag that as a misunderstanding, but nope!
      you can even go on forums and see the question of windows 10 being the last software and being answered by actual people who work at microsoft saying that its the last version.
      when the rumors came out about windows 11, people genuinely believed that it was a hoax. you can even go onto the forums and see that everyone thought windows 10 was the last version. id link stuff but my comment would get removed, so youre gonna have to dig for yourself unfortunately.
