Hey everyone! The audio quality may be off this video. If you didn't see my most recent community post, during the production of this video, my headphones and microphone decided to die out on me (yay), so editing audio was a bit of a hassle this time. I'll get this fixed ASAP and hopefully this is only a one video thing. Anyways, thanks for sticking around!
Honestly I love Windows 11 because it's the newest version of Windows and the logo makes my eyes stare at it for hours (I kinda a creep) but yeah I agree to your opinions! Rock on!
@Relaxing Storm I still consider 7 peak Windows. No bloatware, and you basically have an OS that is tailor-made for desktop usage, with no compromises for touch or anything. Visual uniformity. Fast, stable. Also the infamous Aero theme.
Guys, don't take the video seriously. He wasn't trying to force you to upgrade to windows 11, he was just trying to explain the advantages of windows 11. If you don't feel upgrading to windows 11, that's fine, windows 10 is still available until late 2025 or you can switch to linux at your own risk.
@ThinkIndigo There's a chance that installing linux will brick your pc even if it's less likely to happen than windows and if not properly utilised. Linus tech tips had his pc bricked after installing pop os.
I love windows 10 for a lot of reasons, since my computer has tpm 2.0 chip and secure boot and it's a oem ready windows 11 device, there is a huge gap in terms in performance between 10 and 11, from my experience, multi-tasking and games are much snappy in windows 10.
@@Cheddy Wow! Thx for telling me this information.. I forgot that using LTSC gives you a extended support.. I really wants to thanks you for letting me know thanks a lot again!
Watching this makes me want to stay on Windows 10 even more, there are changes I don't like and very few I might like in 11, but I can change things in 10 to look and work like 11, so till I see something that will wow me, i'll remain on 10.
I recently did a clean install of Windows 11 and went into it with an open mind after being pretty against the idea of getting it up until that point, and frankly had no interest in it. It was nothing but frustrations, and compromises for me. In my opinion, an OS upgrade should be an improvement of experience overall, and there was pretty much no improvements for how I use my computer aside from minor things like the new Snipping tool and the dark mode implementation on apps like Notepad (I actually prefer the classic Notepad, though). I'll also say that there are elements of the UI that I think look nice, such as the icons and the rounded windows, so I'll give it that, but I genuinely feel that Windows 11 ran less smoothly than Windows 10 always has for me. I don't really have any way to prove this, but I notice very minor things when there's little bits of lag or performance dips or whatever. Maybe it's just my PC, I don't know, but it's only 2 years old. If it weren't for third-party software to "fix" the taskbar, the Windows 11 vanilla taskbar is objectively a downgrade in every way. I don't see how anyone could like it personally. Microsoft took away such basic options that have always been part of Windows since Windows 95 (i.e. showing labels which is something I just don't want to give up), and I find that very hard to just accept as an "upgrade". When I came back to 10 it felt such a huge relief because things just looked good, and worked well again. If Windows 10 were to disappear tomorrow, forcing me back to 11, I can say that I'd definitely be okay with it and adapt because third-party software exists to improve the experience, but after giving it a fair chance, it's just not for me right now. Going back to 10 felt like such a substantial upgrade, and I found it funny that Windows 11 lets you install Windows 10 without saying a message like "You already have a newer version of Windows" like it used to do.
The performance issues with Windows 11 aren't just you. And you don't need to prove it. This has been heavily documented. Machines using Windows 11 generally have slightly worse performance in games and applications. There's plenty of benchmark videos on RUclips comparing Windows 10 to 11. And 10 always comes out above Windows 11.
@@DeadPixel1105 that's bs, I just upgraded to w11 and it's way smoother in every way, more stable, and uses less resources except for ram and disk space. Don't put the blame on w11 for your bad computer specs.
Honestly, I upgraded to windows 11 on my Laptop, and it’s great for me. My only issues were issues with the taskbar being annoying and the new frustrating and redundant context menu design. I fixed those issues with a couple of programs, those being retrobar and startisback11. These programs instantly make windows 11 a lot more familiar and easy to use due to the explorer enhancements, and I prefer Windows 11s visual design over windows 10s, so it’s a perfect setup for me.
Windows 11 is the equvalent of putting a new layer of paint over a rusted surface. Yes, it may look good from a far but if you scratch the surface you start to see the many old ui elements and inconsistancies.
@Mohammed Mesum Hussain sure "good" its especially "good" if i have to run my favorite games under an emulator or 3rd party tool because they are windows apps
1: it's an operating system, not a theme park. 2: it's more consistent, but less practical. One example: connecting to a VPN is 2 clicks in W10 and 5 in 11 3: once again I beg to differ. The new taskbar is harder to use, when you have several windows open it involves more clicks to get to the window you want to. The start menu is just a disaster, at this point it's easier to just use a CLI to launch an application One counterpoint why I had briefly considered upgrading: gWSL, the ability to run graphical Linux applications. However this was introduced back in Win 10 in the betas, so not a technological difference, just MS trying to make people change.
I tried out Windows 11 twice. Once before it officially released using the Windows Insider Program and then about 6 months after it officially released after getting some patches and improvements. I reverted back to Windows 10 both times. I have zero plans on ever upgrading to 11. It's a step backwards from 10, in my opinion.
Same bro...when I upgraded to windows 11 I was facing so many bugs and difficulties with the Ui and all that whenever I'd boot up my computer I'd perform a light prayer hoping my PC wouldn't just randomly freeze for no reason. Had to revert back to windows 10 and only god knows when I'll go back to windows 11
@tvrhd2022 Actually, I'm using WIndows 11 RIGHT NOW and I'm facing no issues. At least for me, Windows 11 is already good, while 22H2 will make it EVEN BETTER!😃 BTW, 22H2 will be released in around 2.5 months
@@fbomb.0163 Why did you say *DOWNGRADE* to Windows 11. Anyway, if you're talking about the drag 'n' drop issue, that's indeed getting fixed in 22H2 😀 Also, I'll tell you what: The fact that you're "praying" that your PC won't freeze while booting is a freaking exaggeration 😐.
I upgraded my pc to windows 11 today and honestly it was worth it, my desktop basically forced me so I was a little pissed about that. Personally the performance hasn’t changed necessarily for me so I’d say it’s more of a personal thing and what you prefer. The layout is different and they added some new features but no major updates.
Windows 11 is just Windows 10 with a new skin for the most part. And some people even go out of their way to revert as much of Windows 11 back to Windows 10 so the system becomes “usable”. Me just have no love for rushing new features for no reason unless I have no other choice, hence I am still using Windows 10. But man, after watching this video I am ALMOST got convinced to upgrade to Windows 11, until I realise how unfun Windows 11 is with the missing of usable right click menu, imo worse start menu (it is a freaking APP!) , less customisation, less feature in Control Panel and Settings, among other reasons.
If you're hellbent on sticking to windows 10 for as long as possible (I've moved on to Linux Mint Cinnamon July 28 2020 and couldn't be happier)..you have the option to put whatever you want dead center ish using a "toolbar folder"> Right click taskbar...unlock it. Create a folder anywhere you want. Then paste or left click drag into that folder any thing you want including separate folders such pictures, documents, etc). Go back to taskbar right click it..move mouse to the arrow over on " New " and you'll see selection show up talking about "create toolbar.folder". When you select that, you can navigate to where that folder is you created that you put whatever you wanted into it.. when you select it and hit ok. ... Then left click on the tiny three vertical dots on the far right hand area of the taskbar.sns hold drag it left..until you have them where you want...you'll see the text and icons of the stuff you added in the folder show up. You can also right click any empty area near those items and untick the " text" and title " to only show the icons although when you mouse over each item....you can still get the pop of what that item was named as. I've done this since the xp days and always have put all the stuff I want one click access to as a centered deal and love it
@@jajtic ok. please explain how that registry hack works....because I have yet to see that online or youtube, but I haven't looked hardcore either to be honest Mention this because a friend is in windows 11, but he was curious to try the Toolbar folders idea, but can't figure it out...me neither.
ok but you dont be like BOOM when you only find a very old app you also go BOOM when you see something square themed on windows 11 because everything is goddamn round and it doesnt fit to the theme
Before anyone switches over to windows 11 for its features, I feel it's very important to point out that windows 11 takes the "Microsoft wants to know everything about you" problem much farther than windows 10. An Ordinary Gamer made an amazing video on this issue from what I remember. If you enjoy the limited privacy you still have on windows 10, do not switch to 11. Best choice would be to completely move over to linux but linux isn't as user friendly and I can understand why most won't ever use linux.
Para ser justo, há muitas distros muito mais intuitivas que os windows 10 e 11, bem como muito mais leves, estáveis, limpos, velozes e que respeitam a sua privacidade. O problema é que as pessoas se acostumaram a usar a vida inteira o mesmo sistema com o mesmo design, os mesmos programas e tudo mais, fazendo com que uma mínima curva de aprendizado se torne um grande desafio, além de que falta compatibilidade com muitos jogos (mesmo com o wine). Portanto, dizer que o linux é menos amigável que o windows é uma desculpa para quem não quer reaprender a usar o computador.
People keep talking about privacy when they had a Facebook account since 2010. There's no such a thing as privacy so you might as well enjoy a good os experience without having to change operating systems every now and then.
You forgot to add that Windows Updates are now smaller and the update process itself is now quicker too. Also Task Manager is next in line to get Dark Mode with 22H2 release that is currently in the Beta channel.
@@GuidoDePalma Second half of 2022 like the name says. It should be pretty stable considering it's in Beta channel currently and has reportedly reached RTM status. Meaning no feature changes - only bugfixes until release.
I prefer the windows aero theme, which is why I am prob not gonna update until I absolutely have to, but for more casual users who don't mind the newer ui systems, I can see why people would like 11. Nice vid :)
@@silverballstudios3578 I just run Windows 10, and have modified it's registries to point the theme towards my custom theme which is a copy of win7's aero theme, but to go to win11, I would have to rework the system from scratch, which I'm not sure I'm willing to do, especially because I've pretty much forgotten how I did it in the first place. Also Walmart doesn't exist in Australia and drives of any kind here are dear as a block of gold
I'd be willing to go all in for 11 if there was a way to bring back the old Start Menu, but with the new visuals. I'm not sure if OpenShell is compatible with 11 nowadays..
I am not a computer Geek. My Windows 10 HP laptop is showing a icon Windows 11 is ready for your PC. I've gotten use to Windows 10 on both my desktop and laptop computers. I am afraid to upgrade to Windows 11 because I may lose some of my streaming apps and my Wordperfect, Skype, Zoom, etc. After reading some of the comments below saying Windows 11 is trash, I am going to stick with Windows 10 on my HP 17inch laptop I purchased off QVC 2 years ago. This laptop comes with a disk that I can play videos or listen to music.
I still kinda hate 11, i just dont like that they are making everything simplified. And i dont like the new file explorer because of the rounded corners and everything. This may be only my opinion, but i won’t upgrade to 11 until 10 gets unsopported (or maybe even after that i won’t upgrade).
I think the flat design is targetting the newer generation. I was born in 2008 so you can call me a gen Z and i always found the flat design to be way more modern and natural than the old windows design which always felt old and outdated

man, this new "Virtual Desktop Wallpapers" feature got me upgrading by then. It caught my attention on upgrading my pc. Also, the criticisms of Windows 11 on what it removed (Taskbar Drag and Drop, showing files on folders), returned on the 22H2 feature update (and 23H2)
You don't need to upgrade to Windows 11 to use those fancy new Windows 11 desktop wallpapers. You can download them off the internet and set them as your desktop background with Windows 10.

@@defnotatroll Windows 7 is tailor-made for desktop usage, unlike anything past Windows 8. And the Aero theme still holds up pretty well, It's skeumorphism at its best.
The lack of options to change back what Microsoft changed sucks. I bloody hate how the true right-click menu is hidden under one item and I have to dig for it every time, how the Taskbar always combines everything under one icon even though there's so much room, and how the Start Menu no longer has categories for my pinned apps.
Win 11 is good, but one thing i miss from Win 10 is Start Menu tiling system.. Windows 11 just comes with a Pinned and Recommended option instead of Tiles as Windows 10!
@@K008gr There's definitely going to be more people who likes that, so don't worry! I would like an option where we can set our preferences for the start menu, like Pinned and Tiled mode, so each person can set according to them, and i think we may get an update like this because Windows 11 is still developing i think
tbh if microsoft will make windows 12 in like 2O23 i feel like they should completely rebuild the ui because if you look really deep in the system you can literally find stuff from literally WINDOWS 3.1!
Windows is all about backwards compatibility. There are some elements that are used by almost no one so they aren't worth redesigning but Microsoft still keeps them since there are still some companies and stuff that use those elements for whatever reason. It's not like you come across those Windows 3.1 elements unless you dig in to find them anyway
It will get a bunch of improvements with the upcoming 22H2 update like an option to shrink the recommendations area to have more pinned icons (or the other way around) and app folders which work like the folders in Android and iOS's launchers
I know I am late to comment but all of these combined do not make any significant change or improvement as a pc user. The code source might be diffrent but from outside it just looks like windows 10 with a bit of polish and glither over it, something that may have been done with a simple app
Is Windows 11 lighter and faster than Windows 10? I mean whenever I switched from any version of windows 7 or mostly 8 to Windows 10, it just feels dead, lags too much and comes with a lots of bugs... So can you recommend to upgrade from 10 to 11 for stability and performance improvement?
There are some Windows 11 specific performance improvements for modern devices, but other than that it’s fairly similar in bloat to Windows 10 if not a tad heavier. If you want stability then definitely stay on Windows 10 as 11 still has some annoying bugs
It all seemed like very surface-level aesthetic improvements. I'm still waiting for the day I can rearrange and organize the Start Menu again. Windows seems to get worse and worse, whether or not the corners are round.
Honestly, it’s not that good, it’s using a lot of ram compared to windows 8.1 for exemple, windows 10 also used a lot of ram I have windows 11 on both my computers, it’s not that bad but honestly I’m a bit disgusted of windows Bloatwares, the fact microsoft FORCES you to use their things…
Thanks for the video. I watched all the way through and now I'm upgrading from Windows 10 to 11 on my Avita 2 in 1 Windows Tablet. I will probably let you know how it goes after a while after the upgrade and let you know if it was really worth the upgrade. Also, I enjoy your videos
now the only thing im worried about is will i have the ability to move my task bar to any other side of the screen like windows 10 allows you to. i like keeping it on the side for some reason
My problems with Windows 11 is it sacrifices potential and freedom for simplicity and looks. Outside of security and future support, I currently don’t see a reason to upgrade to 11, which is not too much better and actually may be worse in some aspects. For people who take gaming seriously, I heard that 11 reduces performance and while that may not (always) be the case, I don’t see 11 itself making gaming better than 10. I also don’t like how MS is forcing us to make MS accounts just to operate our own computer with 11. At this current time, there is no legitimate way to make a local/offline account and MS is even going as far as to try to patch the bypasses to workarounds with people who don’t want to make a MS account. So you have to let MS take your data and if you’re not connected to the internet, there’s going to come a time where you won’t be able to use your computer period. Overall, I don’t recommend 11. The extra security is nice, but it’s not worth sacrificing my freedom, data, and lack of reason to upgrade to 11 when 10 is just as good if not better as far as usability is concerned. I genuinely hope a future update or even Windows 12 will make this comment of mine redundant in the future, but for now that’s my view.
There's no extra security whatsoever, just Microsoft doing Microsoft things at scaring you to use their latest services. And yes, performance is worse, I saw visible difference not only in that, but also higher temps, bigger RAM usage by useless processes and services in the background, etc. I gave up and went back to 10, LTSC version. After its support runs out, I'll just move to Linux.
@@zurkke man hearing from you that there is no extra security to even make up for the overall current inferiority of 11 takes away one of the few redeeming factors of 11 for me. May I ask what kind of rig are you running?
@@WololoWololo2 I’ll take the 3 years if it means I can have more control over my damn computer with 10 that does what I need it to do just as good as 11 if not better.
@@animearsenalgaming I have a mid gaming rig which I bought 3 years ago. It just feels like anything but an upgrade for me. It makes things that were simple for DECADES more complicated, design choices were made just for the sake of it, and the only "security updates" they claim to do are mostly related to added telemetry and Microsoft's control over your OWN PC. It's annoying.
I personally probably won't be upgrading because I prefer the look of 10. I tried it but 10 feels more snappy and quick. The file explorer doesn't really bother me, I have the ribbon hidden and just use keyboard shortcuts like F2 to rename, Del to delete, ctrl+c/ctrl+v for copy paste. The animations also feel slow compared to 10, while it adds fluidity to the OS I prefer the animations on 10 because they're quick yet fluid enough like maximizing windows and the start menu opening. Task View in my opinion isn't that great of an upgrade, as I just disabled the activity history/timeline and now it's just a clean simple window overview mode with the multiple desktops at the top. I also don't like the new control center thing, i prefer the dedicated icons for volume, network, etc. Honestly I might switch to Linux after Windows 10 support ends unless if I like Windows 12, but that would have to come out before I switch to Linux. Maybe I might go the KVM virtual machine route if I really need Windows on Linux.
File explorer ribbon to me is primarily for changing the view. e.g. arrange by file type then sort by date. I'm curious to know if their are shortcuts for this.

It was very helpful for IT support work. Now it takes a little longer to get to it. C) The awful center design for the Taskbar. Felt like a cheap copy of MacOS.
There are no folder thumbnails in windows 11. Minimizing and Maximizing windows still gives you that epileptic white flash. This white flash was fixed in windows 10 in one of the later updates. I like the snappy performance, but that's insignificant. Why can't MS just make an independent OS for PCs, why do they have to add that touch stuff in all version. What a shame! Windows 10 is still for me, although, I try Windows 11 every 5 to 6 months, and up till now, it has been a big disappointment.
Windows 11, even with its numerous problems, is not bad enough to where I'd actively avoid any computer that has it. It doesn't have any deal-breaking flaws, such as Vista's instability and 8's tablet-centric design, and they've even improved on some aspects.

I upgraded to Windows 11 on launch day (Oct. 5th, 2021) for whatever reason and there were tons of bugs, as probably the most common one, was the audio not working. I had to use a tutorial just to fix it. Lots of bugs. One thing I hated the most was the stripped features. Like not being able to drag a file into a certain program and stuff like that. I used this feature the most in Windows 10 and was disappointed when I found out it was gone in Windows 11. If you didn't know, there was this feature in File Explorer that allowed you to move files with the click of a button, labeled "Move to". It was really convenient and quick and I used it a lot. This isn't a completely negative comment however as I've grown to like Windows 11 as the months went by (Since the bugs were fixed over time) I still don't like the fact that some features were removed that were really convenient but still, It's a decent OS and I have it installed on my main computer and laptop.
Don't mind people saying like "Windows 11 is trash, I'm sticking with 10 for now" or something like that. When it looses support and they didn't upgrade, they will instantly regret it. Gg for upgrading to win11. 👍
i upgraded to windows 11 on my laptop when it first came out, i was getting horrible battery performance after installing windows 11 on it (battery life literally got halved). Had waited a couple of months to see if they fixed the issue as a lot of people had the same problem as me but they didn't. Also, the overall OS feels significantly slower and i don't know why but scrolling through the file manager feels really laggy on windows 11. Again, though that it would be fixed in a couple of months but it wasn't so i ultimately had to switch back to windows 10. Microsoft purely focussed on making windows 11 "aesthetically pleasing" and overlooked the fact that the os itself is pure garbage.
Dude, You should Move to Windows 8.1 from your Windows 10 since it’s way lighter and better than 10. Windows 8.1 gets updates until 2023 so you can upgrade to Windows 10 by then. Windows 11 is only a 1 year old OS, like Windows 10 were almost no different than Windows 8.1 but more fancier and some more stuff to do. Microsoft removed Tiles for desktop too. And Windows 8.1 were the same as Windows 7 itself which Windows 7 looked and still looks like Windows Vista.
@@thebestgamer5248 just as i said earlier, a ryzen 7 3700U is definitely not a low end processor, i feel my laptop is still comparitively more snappier running windows 10 instead of 11 and i stand by my statement

I liked them so much ... Its looking like I'll still gonna stay with 8.1 and 10 at my computers ... Its uncomfortable for touch users to click on small icons instead of clicking on big tiles ...
Really the convenience part of right click on a .7z or .zip file then go to 7-zip to see a list of extraction options is missing from windows 11 even after installing 7-zip. I have to open the file then select the file to extract then tell it where to extract them too. Thankfully it still allows me to make a folder in that window but the convenience part is gone. Another part that is missing is just the way to cut and paste or copy and paste files moved. Thankfully you still can do Ctrl+X and Ctrl+C to cut and copy then Ctrl+V to paste. Unsure of Ctrl+P for print still works as i only have windows 11 in a VM and not connected to a printer. Windows 11 seems to have simplified everything down and the redundancy of windows 10 was good. Having 2 or 3 ways to do 1 thing was good. Thankfully command prompt in user and admin modes are still there with all the commands since Windows 7 too. Taking away IE was a bad thing. It was there for legacy software that is no longer updated. So it broke software and it will be a program that people will add back in. For me really i don't use it but software i use does use it as it is the most compatible between OSes until now. All the devlopment software i use seemed to install correctly and the git clone seemed to download and update correctly. The program compiled correctly so the OS doesn't interfere with software it seems. Still getting to it all was a pain and i ended up just pinning everything to the taskbar instead of trying to use the start thing at all. For an avg consumer use i still would say to pin everything they use to the taskbar as start is almost useless now. Setting got a rearrange again. It was difficult to find the stuff i had to to set up a desktop UI i was used to seeing and interacting with. Still even with it being difficult it was still able to do what i needed it to do. I am thinking if i make Windows 11 the host system i would just make a script to change everything as almost everything needs a change from default in my mind. Thankfully they left alone regedit.exe. It works like it has since windows 95. I replace notepad with notepad++ so no comment on notepad.exe being the same or not. I think I could get used to it if I had to but as I don't have to most likely I will wait for Windows 12 to come and hope it is better than Windows 11.
Windows 11 is really just windows 10 but skinned to be pretty and more glitchy. Windows 11 is also very inconsistent, unless you use Rectify11. Also just use Linux. I recommend EndeavourOS and Garuda Linux.
Yeah, just ignoring the fact that it has poor compatibility, less out of the box features, heavily focused on command line, arguably worser looking ui, and is slower than Windows on modern hardware.
@@thebestgamer5248 the UI issues can be fixed by switching to a different de aka Desktop Environment. Linux is not slower on modern hardware or on old hardware unless you bloat it with say, GNOME DE. Most of the time it's the opposite. Linux is lightweight. Also the command line is inevitable. Just learn how to use it in the same way you learned how to use the start menu when it changes all the time. Also Android phones use the Linux kernel. The web basically runs on Linux. The "compatibility issues" are with windwoes apps. Get WINE, Bottles, Lutris, PlayOnLinux, Proton, some dxvk support, and done! So stfu, you clearly don't know what you are talking about. The command line is NOT scary, in fact you can try to avoid it most of the time and only use it as a back up. Learn how to use your damn computer. It's much easier to tell someone to plug a command into their command line rather than Open this... Click that... Exit this app... Then you find out they opened the wrong app. Less out of box features? No way not! I can change almost anything to my liking. You want a windows feature? Well I'm pretty sure it's possible!
This is mostly fluff with the exception of the multitasking. The productivity in Win 11 has taken a downward spiral with many important features (never combine icons, task left and right placement for wide monitors etc.) being lost. There is now an extra click to change power modes and connect to WiFi. It's generally just a pain in the ass to do anything. But hey it looks nice...
Exactly! Also removing task master from the right click menu was a horrible idea. Now I have to through a settings rabbit hole just to find it. Time wasting design.

Watching this makes me want to stay on Windows 10 even more, there are changes I don't like and very few I might like in 11, but I can change things in 10 to look and work like 11, so till I see something that will wow me, i'll remain on 10.
I recently did a clean install of Windows 11 and went into it with an open mind after being pretty against the idea of getting it up until that point, and frankly had no interest in it. It was nothing but frustrations, and compromises for me. In my opinion, an OS upgrade should be an improvement of experience overall, and there was pretty much no improvements for how I use my computer aside from minor things like the new Snipping tool and the dark mode implementation on apps like Notepad (I actually prefer the classic Notepad, though). I'll also say that there are elements of the UI that I think look nice, such as the icons and the rounded windows, so I'll give it that, but I genuinely feel that Windows 11 ran less smoothly than Windows 10 always has for me. I don't really have any way to prove this, but I notice very minor things when there's little bits of lag or performance dips or whatever. Maybe it's just my PC, I don't know, but it's only 2 years old. If it weren't for third-party software to "fix" the taskbar, the Windows 11 vanilla taskbar is objectively a downgrade in every way. I don't see how anyone could like it personally. Microsoft took away such basic options that have always been part of Windows since Windows 95 (i.e. showing labels which is something I just don't want to give up), and I find that very hard to just accept as an "upgrade". When I came back to 10 it felt such a huge relief because things just looked good, and worked well again. If Windows 10 were to disappear tomorrow, forcing me back to 11, I can say that I'd definitely be okay with it and adapt because third-party software exists to improve the experience, but after giving it a fair chance, it's just not for me right now. Going back to 10 felt like such a substantial upgrade, and I found it funny that Windows 11 lets you install Windows 10 without saying a message like "You already have a newer version of Windows" like it used to do.
The performance issues with Windows 11 aren't just you. And you don't need to prove it. This has been heavily documented. Machines using Windows 11 generally have slightly worse performance in games and applications. There's plenty of benchmark videos on RUclips comparing Windows 10 to 11. And 10 always comes out above Windows 11.

Honestly, I upgraded to windows 11 on my Laptop, and it’s great for me. My only issues were issues with the taskbar being annoying and the new frustrating and redundant context menu design. I fixed those issues with a couple of programs, those being retrobar and startisback11. These programs instantly make windows 11 a lot more familiar and easy to use due to the explorer enhancements, and I prefer Windows 11s visual design over windows 10s, so it’s a perfect setup for me.
I did the exact same thing, and I'd say I'm satisfied with it!

We have the same problem. I thought my problem is no functioning due to virus

They made the corners round, it uses way more ram and put every feature I use to a different location. Thanks Microsoft.
Windows 11 is the equvalent of putting a new layer of paint over a rusted surface. Yes, it may look good from a far but if you scratch the surface you start to see the many old ui elements and inconsistancies.

@Mohammed Mesum Hussain sure "good" its especially "good" if i have to run my favorite games under an emulator or 3rd party tool because they are windows apps
ive used windows 11 ever since it came out, ive never ran into any inconsistencies
1: it's an operating system, not a theme park.
2: it's more consistent, but less practical. One example: connecting to a VPN is 2 clicks in W10 and 5 in 11
3: once again I beg to differ. The new taskbar is harder to use, when you have several windows open it involves more clicks to get to the window you want to. The start menu is just a disaster, at this point it's easier to just use a CLI to launch an application
One counterpoint why I had briefly considered upgrading: gWSL, the ability to run graphical Linux applications. However this was introduced back in Win 10 in the betas, so not a technological difference, just MS trying to make people change.

The layout is different and they added some new features but no major updates.
Well happy new year to you. After months!
I'm glad you're back.
Windows 11 is just Windows 10 with a new skin for the most part. And some people even go out of their way to revert as much of Windows 11 back to Windows 10 so the system becomes “usable”. Me just have no love for rushing new features for no reason unless I have no other choice, hence I am still using Windows 10.
But man, after watching this video I am ALMOST got convinced to upgrade to Windows 11, until I realise how unfun Windows 11 is with the missing of usable right click menu, imo worse start menu (it is a freaking APP!) , less customisation, less feature in Control Panel and Settings, among other reasons.
If you're hellbent on sticking to windows 10 for as long as possible (I've moved on to Linux Mint Cinnamon July 28 2020 and couldn't be happier)..you have the option to put whatever you want dead center ish using a "toolbar folder">
Right click taskbar...unlock it.
Create a folder anywhere you want. Then paste or left click drag into that folder any thing you want including separate folders such pictures, documents, etc).
Go back to taskbar right click it..move mouse to the arrow over on " New " and you'll see selection show up talking about "create toolbar.folder". When you select that, you can navigate to where that folder is you created that you put whatever you wanted into it.. when you select it and hit ok. ... Then left click on the tiny three vertical dots on the far right hand area of the taskbar.sns hold drag it left..until you have them where you want...you'll see the text and icons of the stuff you added in the folder show up.
You can also right click any empty area near those items and untick the " text" and title " to only show the icons although when you mouse over each item....you can still get the pop of what that item was named as.
I've done this since the xp days and always have put all the stuff I want one click access to as a centered deal and love it

Before anyone switches over to windows 11 for its features, I feel it's very important to point out that windows 11 takes the "Microsoft wants to know everything about you" problem much farther than windows 10. An Ordinary Gamer made an amazing video on this issue from what I remember. If you enjoy the limited privacy you still have on windows 10, do not switch to 11. Best choice would be to completely move over to linux but linux isn't as user friendly and I can understand why most won't ever use linux.
Para ser justo, há muitas distros muito mais intuitivas que os windows 10 e 11, bem como muito mais leves, estáveis, limpos, velozes e que respeitam a sua privacidade. O problema é que as pessoas se acostumaram a usar a vida inteira o mesmo sistema com o mesmo design, os mesmos programas e tudo mais, fazendo com que uma mínima curva de aprendizado se torne um grande desafio, além de que falta compatibilidade com muitos jogos (mesmo com o wine). Portanto, dizer que o linux é menos amigável que o windows é uma desculpa para quem não quer reaprender a usar o computador.
And remember If it aint broke, dont fix it.

The lack of options to change back what Microsoft changed sucks.
I bloody hate how the true right-click menu is hidden under one item and I have to dig for it every time, how the Taskbar always combines everything under one icon even though there's so much room, and how the Start Menu no longer has categories for my pinned apps.
Win 11 is good, but one thing i miss from Win 10 is Start Menu tiling system.. Windows 11 just comes with a Pinned and Recommended option instead of Tiles as Windows 10!
Am I the only one who ACTUALLY LIKES the removal of tiles?
@@K008gr There's definitely going to be more people who likes that, so don't worry!

tbh if microsoft will make windows 12 in like 2O23 i feel like they should completely rebuild the ui because if you look really deep in the system you can literally find stuff from literally WINDOWS 3.1!
Windows is all about backwards compatibility. There are some elements that are used by almost no one so they aren't worth redesigning but Microsoft still keeps them since there are still some companies and stuff that use those elements for whatever reason.

Windows 11 is slower than Windows 10 with VBS installed. Without it they are nearly the same in speed.
I know I am late to comment but all of these combined do not make any significant change or improvement as a pc user. The code source might be diffrent but from outside it just looks like windows 10 with a bit of polish and glither over it, something that may have been done with a simple app
Is Windows 11 lighter and faster than Windows 10? I mean whenever I switched from any version of windows 7 or mostly 8 to Windows 10, it just feels dead, lags too much and comes with a lots of bugs... So can you recommend to upgrade from 10 to 11 for stability and performance improvement?

My problems with Windows 11 is it sacrifices potential and freedom for simplicity and looks. Outside of security and future support, I currently don’t see a reason to upgrade to 11, which is not too much better and actually may be worse in some aspects. For people who take gaming seriously, I heard that 11 reduces performance and while that may not (always) be the case, I don’t see 11 itself making gaming better than 10. I also don’t like how MS is forcing us to make MS accounts just to operate our own computer with 11. At this current time, there is no legitimate way to make a local/offline account and MS is even going as far as to try to patch the bypasses to workarounds with people who don’t want to make a MS account. So you have to let MS take your data and if you’re not connected to the internet, there’s going to come a time where you won’t be able to use your computer period. Overall, I don’t recommend 11. The extra security is nice, but it’s not worth sacrificing my freedom, data, and lack of reason to upgrade to 11 when 10 is just as good if not better as far as usability is concerned. I genuinely hope a future update or even Windows 12 will make this comment of mine redundant in the future, but for now that’s my view.
There's no extra security whatsoever, just Microsoft doing Microsoft things at scaring you to use their latest services. And yes, performance is worse, I saw visible difference not only in that, but also higher temps, bigger RAM usage by useless processes and services in the background, etc. I gave up and went back to 10, LTSC version. After its support runs out, I'll just move to Linux.

Speaking of Android, 22H2 will introduce folders in the start menu, and Opening them shows and android-like animation 🤔
But not available in my country.
oh nice! our yearly content is here!
I personally probably won't be upgrading because I prefer the look of 10. I tried it but 10 feels more snappy and quick. The file explorer doesn't really bother me, I have the ribbon hidden and just use keyboard shortcuts like F2 to rename, Del to delete, ctrl+c/ctrl+v for copy paste. The animations also feel slow compared to 10, while it adds fluidity to the OS I prefer the animations on 10 because they're quick yet fluid enough like maximizing windows and the start menu opening. Task View in my opinion isn't that great of an upgrade, as I just disabled the activity history/timeline and now it's just a clean simple window overview mode with the multiple desktops at the top. I also don't like the new control center thing, i prefer the dedicated icons for volume, network, etc. Honestly I might switch to Linux after Windows 10 support ends unless if I like Windows 12, but that would have to come out before I switch to Linux. Maybe I might go the KVM virtual machine route if I really need Windows on Linux.
File explorer ribbon to me is primarily for changing the view. e.g. arrange by file type then sort by date. I'm curious to know if their are shortcuts for this.
try Win11 now after the 2H22 update. its much better and more stable. way better than Win10.
Installed windows 11 on accident on my old laptop (It made the laptop slow)
Now that I have a new laptop, I'm able to use it without any problems

@@Ivedotwav My experience with Windows 11(work laptop) is that it is slower than Windows 10 (personal laptop). Found out it was due to VBS (Virtualization Based Security).
Other things that annoyed me about Windows 11:
A) News section moved to the far left bottom corner and made overly sensitive.
B) Removal of task master from the right click menu. It was very helpful for IT support work. Now it takes a little longer to get to it.
C) The awful center design for the Taskbar. Felt like a cheap copy of MacOS.

People should reconsider Windows 11 after the 22h2 update, they really fixed alot of things and brought back many features.
Is it still good?
There are no folder thumbnails in windows 11. Minimizing and Maximizing windows still gives you that epileptic white flash. This white flash was fixed in windows 10 in one of the later updates. I like the snappy performance, but that's insignificant. Why can't MS just make an independent OS for PCs, why do they have to add that touch stuff in all version. What a shame! Windows 10 is still for me, although, I try Windows 11 every 5 to 6 months, and up till now, it has been a big disappointment.
It was worth the wait :)

The Legend is back with a even interesting video to share with us! ✨⭐️🌟
Yay ur back My Tech Legend!
Windows 11, even with its numerous problems, is not bad enough to where I'd actively avoid any computer that has it. It doesn't have any deal-breaking flaws, such as Vista's instability and 8's tablet-centric design, and they've even improved on some aspects.
I'm a windows 7 user, I decided to use windows 11 for first time to see why people hated it.
And when I started it and using for a day. I actually kinda liked this windows 1 but the requirements were not good cause you need to have tpm 2.0 chip but my desktop which Ran windows 11 on a VMware. Had Tpm 2.0 because my desktop was from 2017 and I downgraded from windows 10 to 7 because I like 7 more because of the ui and yes wi windows 11 does have that but the thing is it's transparent white glass non- realistic. I prefer the realistic one
Bro windows ended the support for win 7. Upgrade it orelse you will be in risky position
@@techdshindi5173 no forever cause I'm not worry about security and I don't want to install latest version of windows cause my hardware can't support windows 11
One of the main things I noticed is that background processes now take a lot less cpu usage, in windows 10 my cpu would be at 15-20% usage at idle, windows 11 dropped this down to 5%
same!
Hahah because is a new os installed wait some time and you will see will be worse than 10 specially if you have a older pc
@@wildrouseacer nope, running Windows 11 on a 12600K for 9 months now and on idle the CPU usage is 2-5% after filling up 1.5 TB of space. Windows 11 is just Windows 10 with a different UI.

Now: worth it
I upgraded to Windows 11 on launch day (Oct. 5th, 2021) for whatever reason and there were tons of bugs, as probably the most common one, was the audio not working. I had to use a tutorial just to fix it. Lots of bugs. One thing I hated the most was the stripped features. Like not being able to drag a file into a certain program and stuff like that. I used this feature the most in Windows 10 and was disappointed when I found out it was gone in Windows 11. If you didn't know, there was this feature in File Explorer that allowed you to move files with the click of a button, labeled "Move to". It was really convenient and quick and I used it a lot. This isn't a completely negative comment however as I've grown to like Windows 11 as the months went by (Since the bugs were fixed over time) I still don't like the fact that some features were removed that were really convenient but still, It's a decent OS and I have it installed on my main computer and laptop.
Good news: dragging a file into the taskbar will come back in september 20th

I'm really happy I'm running windows 11 currently...I've never regretted it
Don't mind people saying like "Windows 11 is trash, I'm sticking with 10 for now" or something like that. When it looses support and they didn't upgrade, they will instantly regret it. Gg for upgrading to win11. 👍
@@zxqdcv win 11 isnt going to be supported for much longer than win10 lols
YOU FINALY UPLOAD
i upgraded to windows 11 on my laptop when it first came out, i was getting horrible battery performance after installing windows 11 on it (battery life literally got halved). Had waited a couple of months to see if they fixed the issue as a lot of people had the same problem as me but they didn't. Also, the overall OS feels significantly slower and i don't know why but scrolling through the file manager feels really laggy on windows 11. Again, though that it would be fixed in a couple of months but it wasn't so i ultimately had to switch back to windows 10.
Microsoft purely focussed on making windows 11 "aesthetically pleasing" and overlooked the fact that the os itself is pure garbage.
@@ZuriPlus9572 i bought my laptop 9 months ago dude, defo not. its a msi modern 15 with a ryzen 7
Dude, You should Move to Windows 8.1 from your Windows 10 since it’s way lighter and better than 10. Windows 8.1 gets updates until 2023 so you can upgrade to Windows 10 by then.
Windows 11 is only a 1 year old OS, like Windows 10 were almost no different than Windows 8.1 but more fancier and some more stuff to do. Microsoft removed Tiles for desktop too. And Windows 8.1 were the same as Windows 7 itself which Windows 7 looked and still looks like Windows Vista.
@@SubhrajitChaudhuri yes move to Win XP

It does
It doesn't if you keep VBS installed. Remove VBS and it performs on par with Windows 10.
4-finger gestures, really ? I'm not fu**ing octopus ! 😂😂😂😂 And I really dont like the new start menu in Win 11. Its really big mess compared to 8.1 and even 10 ... Why they got rid of live tiles 😭. I liked them so much ... Its looking like I'll still gonna stay with 8.1 and 10 at my computers ... Its uncomfortable for touch users to click on small icons instead of clicking on big tiles ...
W8.1 is the best with support until jan 2023.
Wishing w8.1 had a rebirth...
@@Shubhamabrahamajj76 yes, I wish it too
... are your fingers giant?
Really the convenience part of right click on a .7z or .zip file then go to 7-zip to see a list of extraction options is missing from windows 11 even after installing 7-zip. I have to open the file then select the file to extract then tell it where to extract them too. Thankfully it still allows me to make a folder in that window but the convenience part is gone.
Another part that is missing is just the way to cut and paste or copy and paste files moved. Thankfully you still can do Ctrl+X and Ctrl+C to cut and copy then Ctrl+V to paste.
Unsure of Ctrl+P for print still works as i only have windows 11 in a VM and not connected to a printer.
Windows 11 seems to have simplified everything down and the redundancy of windows 10 was good. Having 2 or 3 ways to do 1 thing was good. Thankfully command prompt in user and admin modes are still there with all the commands since Windows 7 too. Taking away IE was a bad thing. It was there for legacy software that is no longer updated. So it broke software and it will be a program that people will add back in. For me really i don't use it but software i use does use it as it is the most compatible between OSes until now.
All the devlopment software i use seemed to install correctly and the git clone seemed to download and update correctly. The program compiled correctly so the OS doesn't interfere with software it seems. Still getting to it all was a pain and i ended up just pinning everything to the taskbar instead of trying to use the start thing at all.
For an avg consumer use i still would say to pin everything they use to the taskbar as start is almost useless now.
Setting got a rearrange again. It was difficult to find the stuff i had to to set up a desktop UI i was used to seeing and interacting with. Still even with it being difficult it was still able to do what i needed it to do. I am thinking if i make Windows 11 the host system i would just make a script to change everything as almost everything needs a change from default in my mind.
Thankfully they left alone regedit.exe. It works like it has since windows 95. I replace notepad with notepad++ so no comment on notepad.exe being the same or not.
I think I could get used to it if I had to but as I don't have to most likely I will wait for Windows 12 to come and hope it is better than Windows 11.
Windows 11 is really just windows 10 but skinned to be pretty and more glitchy.
Windows 11 is also very inconsistent, unless you use Rectify11.
Also just use Linux. I recommend EndeavourOS and Garuda Linux.
yes use linux, but dont use arch as your first distro, check out linux mint or zorin os instead
Yeah, just ignoring the fact that it has poor compatibility, less out of the box features, heavily focused on command line, arguably worser looking ui, and is slower than Windows on modern hardware.
@@thebestgamer5248 only one of those things you said was true
@@thebestgamer5248 the UI issues can be fixed by switching to a different de aka Desktop Environment.
Linux is not slower on modern hardware or on old hardware unless you bloat it with say, GNOME DE. Most of the time it's the opposite. Linux is lightweight.
Also the command line is inevitable. Just learn how to use it in the same way you learned how to use the start menu when it changes all the time.
Also Android phones use the Linux kernel.
The web basically runs on Linux.
The "compatibility issues" are with windwoes apps.
Get WINE, Bottles, Lutris, PlayOnLinux, Proton, some dxvk support, and done!
So stfu, you clearly don't know what you are talking about.
The command line is NOT scary, in fact you can try to avoid it most of the time and only use it as a back up.
Learn how to use your damn computer.
It's much easier to tell someone to plug a command into their command line rather than
Open this...
Click that...
Exit this app...
Then you find out they opened the wrong app.
Less out of box features? No way not!
I can change almost anything to my liking.
You want a windows feature? Well I'm pretty sure it's possible!
@@thebestgamer5248 none of what you said is true
This is mostly fluff with the exception of the multitasking. The productivity in Win 11 has taken a downward spiral with many important features (never combine icons, task left and right placement for wide monitors etc.) being lost. There is now an extra click to change power modes and connect to WiFi. It's generally just a pain in the ass to do anything. But hey it looks nice...
Indeed.
You can make Linux Mint look like windows 11 but without the bs
Exactly! Also removing task master from the right click menu was a horrible idea. Now I have to through a settings rabbit hole just to find it. Time wasting design.
