Is Windows 11 BETTER than Windows 10? | Features, Changes and Bugs
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 1 июл 2024
- Windows 10 vs Windows 11 has been an ongoing debate on which is better, but Windows 11 has finally ironed out a lot of the bugs that it initially had in 2021, though in 2022 it has improved all the problems, bar a few. And it is honestly to the stage where it is worth the switch, especially if you take advantage of HDR.

Will be adding both updated custom TYC Win 10 and Windows 11 ISOs (hopefully before Christmas) for you guys!
I think it would be a good idea if you can show us the steps to make the ISO ourselves, explaining the reasoning behind each choice. Teach us how to fish! And thanks for all your content.
a reminder to add emjoi's to your blocked words.. because those telescams are strong here. :(
Linux better
I am Still running Win10 LTSC 2019 & I Love it With No cortanna No spyware,Bloatware,malware I can still dl & play games from the ms store it seams to have all The Pros & none of the cons ..I just upgraded my cpu to the 5950x from a 3900x so im still enjoying that (I Love The Tinkering) I tried win 11 when it first came out (Unofficial) THen again after they released it & i just didnt care for it.But i do have in on a vm on one of my home servers & also on a old Xeon test Box (HP Z210) that i can play around n test on..but I will Probably go to 11 at some point im sure but not today ..but i am curious to what this 5950x & 3080ti will do on 11 after they fixed some of the bugs so who knows..Cool Video Thanks for the info ! Keep up the good work !
I've blocked ads in my Opera browser ..BUT now in YT ads are sneaking through, is this a W11 thing ?
I'd still be using W7 If I could. No stupid pop ups for frequent updates I don't want. And things worked as advertised.
I'd be using W7 aswell if I could. I dont think you can install it with AM4 cpus (5800x). I already dont like W10 not to mention W11. Bunch of telemetry and always pushing to move away from having local accounts.

You can install it on modern hardware but it's a long process.
-Integrate USB drivers into the ISO
-Enable CSM in BIOS
-Sacrifice a USB to be a dedicated Win7 installer and uses MBR (can't use things like Ventoy etc.)
Drivers are a hassle but all of them work outside of Killer LAN. You have to get around the .exe file not allowing you but that's easy, you extract the file and install via device manager.
Obviously some newer applications / games will not work so keep that in mind.
Still not convinced to update to Windows 11 yet. Although it's nice to see progress is being made.
I’ve used 11 for 6 months and hate it. Going to have to reinstall and go back to 10
yep on 12900k, and i can tell you for gaming, i've yet to have issues about p/e core situation, and windows 11 just have issues.
Windows 11 looks awesome, but it’s just not functional. It takes me 3 extra clicks to get to the same menus I could on windows 10 in 1 or 2 clicks.
@@taipeitaiwan10 Weird way of thinking and doing thing. You hate W11, but you waited 6months to go back to W10... lmao
@@taipeitaiwan10 why would you use it for six months if you hate it? makes no sense
Remember when windows said 10 was the last os 🤣🤣
Operating system system
@@zachperry1190 and windows instead of MS 🤦🏼♂️😆
Bill Gates needs more money to make fake meat and buy farmland.
It still is.
I remember but that's unrealisable to keep the same os because hardware is also evolving fast.
All the features of Windows 11 could be implemented in Windows 10, but then Miscosoft won't sell any more licences ...
I've been enjoying W10 because of the much less frequent updates and my main fear is if I take the update to W11 it will be back to those damned constant feature updates. The only times I had bad issues with my PC was with those feature updates often going wrong and often costing me hours even, days to get everything back to the way I like it. I just don't want to go back to that again.
Yeah, same
It's stupid to go with Windows 11 when your only going to get 3 years support on updates. Windows 10 iot Enterprise LTSC 2019 gets 10 year support. The same applies for the LTSC 2021 version as well. I don't understand why people don't think before they do. My point is the version of Windows 10 version I'm using will outlast Windows 11 when it comes to security updates. So I'm sticking with Windows 10 all the way. It makes no sense to switch to Windows 11 ever.
Your fears are well-founded and understood. 👌
@@NeverTrustGovrnmentOrGlobalist So why does Windows 10 Enterprise get 10 year support? I am actually using Windows 10 Education because I had an old Student ID that worked for signing up for a free W10 key, it seems like it's the same as Windows 10 Pro but I have no idea how many years of updates I will get if I stuck with W10, so upgrading to W11 has been more enticing as of late, especially with the improved gaming performance and fps increases.
You can turn off windows 11 updates and turn them back on when needed
i bought a key off of EBAY 2 years ago with 0 problems for $5 US. Works great to this day.
My main concern with any new version of Windows is that the old version is left in the dust. 11 is going to have a lot of new features in the upcoming years, but 10 is just going to slowly fade away, excepting the security updates. I also don’t have a “supported CPU”, given my i7 7700HQ, though 11 can run just fine even on the 6th generation (which is the bare minimum, otherwise the performance is quite affected). As for stability and RAM usage, 8.1 was the last one to manage everything in a stable manner. I also remember when they wanted to make this huge update on 10 (basically what 11 is today), but decided to “create a new Windows”.
CPU support has now been expanded to anything powerful enough to meet minimum spec
So with my new mini pc coming with Ryzen 9 5900HX CPU and will crank the RAM to 64GB should i neglect/ignore Win 11?
@@talibong9518 no it hasn’t, you will still need to have a supported cpu
No, it will not 😁It would have features that you would eventually disable or simple do not use. In real life, XP was stable enough to run without reinstalls, even Win 98 SE was not bad in this regard.
I mean, I still use Windows 7. Yes DX12 games don't work (some do with DVRK) but all my games work anyway so why not. I might skip Windows 10 entirely!
Thank you. Another great video. I love your informative videos, keep up the great work!
The insider programme has it's place, but I had to make the decision to re-build and stick with the standard release window build - best decision I've made thus far. Nowhere near the amount of bugs that existed prior and everything has been great since (even if I had to wait for tabs in file explorer, worth the wait). OS feels snappy, no weird bugs and crashes like I was experiencing before. That's not to say that it's been %100 fine, but still a far better experience - I'm in the boat of liking 11 vs 10, doubt I could go back.
Out of the 9 system in the house I decided to try the free upgrade on two Media PCs. Did an in place update to 11 on one and a clean from scratch iso install on the other. I turned off widgets and selected to move the taskbar icons to the left from stock center spot. This way the start menu is in the same spot. The right click menu is annoying as you now have icons for copy / cut / paste or select more settings to find them.
I mainly wanted it for possible improve direct storage support so maybe games would start to utilize NVMe drivers better. Current fast NVME drives don’t behave any better than a good SSD. I want to see those drives loading games past the max 500-600mb read speeds.
So far I don’t have any plans of going back on those two systems but do plan to get used to it before moving the other 7 PCs over off 10.
Thank you Brian for coming up with this video. I was literally wondering these days how is the situation now with it 1 year later after its release and shabam you uploaded the video lol.
For me, pictures the biggest disappointment was the absence of the "thumbnail folder preview", extremely useful when you are working with a lot of images. Fortunately, a few months ago Microsoft made a compromise, and even if you can have at least one full-picture preview if not multiple ones like before, you can see half of it. What is very mind-boggling is why the devs have considered this feature as a "security" risk!? Or maybe they were too lazy to implement it in Windows 11 too after it was since Win 2000 and Millennium.
Is gone far same as windows ME my laptop constantly bsod even though I fresh reinstall windows 11 and still gave me dsod no matter you have the latest driver honesty if windows 12 comes around the corner and actually fix windows 11 old issues rather just skip it
That too? One more reason for me to stay on W10. As far as I know they also removed the option to have window labels on the taskbar, which is completely ridiculous for desktop users.
@Thomas B You mean You're sticking with Windows 10 until they stop giving you updates. Unless you can still game on Windows 10 IOT, apparently that's getting 10 years of security updates all the way to 2029.
oh ok
I just switched today from Windows 10 to Windows 11. My motherboard ASUS ROG Maximus XII HERO (Wi-Fi) after upgrading BIOS to firmware 2701. I love the context -menu every time I do a right click, specially when Copying / Moving / Pasting / Renaming file. Very handy. I also love the dark themes for the whole Windows GUI. It is relaxing to my eyes.
I had a MAJOR glitch (commented on one of your videos awhile back about it) where I had major stuttering. I tried everything, determined it wasn't hardware related after fixing CPU paste and installing a water cooler, and I had to go back to Windows 10. But the performance on Win 11 is like so much better for most things, so I prefer it.
It's caused by wifi drivers, try different drivers manually until it's fixed
@@talibong9518 Or use ethernet. Wifi sucks
I think Google Chrome browser pop-up is faster on Win11 too.
Remember when “MICROSOFT” said “WINDOWS 10” was the last “WINDOWS”!!!!!!!!!!
I’ve noticed that W11 is excellent at installing all your required drivers, even for custom builds. But, for me the biggest pain in the ass is performance of File Explorer. It is still a slow buggy pos compared to W10.
File explorer (and the tracking garbage) are the only things worse in my experience. there are ways on a router end to stop the telemetry.
Windows 10 is not good at installing required drivers ? I never had isues.
@@greg8909 Win 10 is really good at this, probably too good because when you do not want the latest drivers, because they are buggy ,you have no say.
@@greg8909 He didn't say it wasn't on windows 10. Just pointing out what's good on windows 11. Wasn't a comparison regarding the drivers. Only comparison was on the File explorer.
for me file explorer was just as bad if not worse in windows 10
The thing I don't like about win11 is the fact that you need to be connected to a microsoft account to use most of the features...I stay with Win 10 for now
That's not true when installing W11 and you are at the account spot use "shift+F10" then in the cmd type "oobe\bypassnro" the pc will restart and then the option for a local account is there again.
There is definitely ways around it. Autounattend.xml file on the install usb is a good way. Which also gives you the option to answer all setup questions and not have to click anything at all during setup too.
You can use it just fine without a microsoft account. Just enter a made up email and password when it asks for one during installation, it will show an error then allow you to create a local account.
I am not logged in at all and haven't noticed being locked out of features
Maybe things have changed since, but when I did try it on a VM and installed it without a Microsoft account linked, most of features were not available, I will maybe try it again just to see with the methods shared by you guys but win 10 still going strong and since I'm still on Intel 10th gen, I have no real reasons to upgrade for the task scheduler for hybrid cpu either
At first I hated the new start menu in the middle but I now have an ultra wide screen and because of that I've changed my mind about that because it's pretty handy to have the start menu in the middle, I also love the snap screens that just works superb on the ultra wide.
I haven't seen any of the bugs that you pointed out in this video on my pc, however I do have one bug that I can't get fixed at the moment which is the installation of the chipset driver package and it doesn't matter if I download the driver directly from AMD or from ASUS both driver packages fail to install.
I've tried to use the AMD clean tool to remove everything and did a new install, I tried a different order and nothing I'm doing makes any change it just keeps failing to install, the weird thing is that everything seems to work fine and I don't have any devices listed that windows doesn't recognize nor do I see any device turned off.
And the parts that fail to install are the AMD PCI Device Driver, the GPIO2 Driver and the AMD PSP Driver, the SMBUS Driver I got manually installed, the PSP Driver is some power scheduling pack which contains the machine code to optimize the communication between windows and the CPU I think which is pretty important but it works without that part, I have no idea what the GPIO2 driver does, I presume it has something to do with the RGB syncing but that's working fine too and the AMD PCI Device Driver I'm not sure what to do about that because it lists multiple devices and I don't know which one I should try to get installed manually.
Same here, I’ve got a 38” Alienware and the middle start menu I didn’t like, now I love it
Loved the preview and update, thanks.
Will the windows recovery process with the usb boot actually work more reliably with win11 than win10 when the stuff hits the fan?
Been on Win11 since it came out. Had one growing pain issue where there was an audio buzz that got patched out and fixed within a month. Other than that it's been good for me.
I've been using windows 11 since it launched and for the most part, Windows 11 21H2 was really stable. I did notice those slow hangs you mentioned with mp3's though. And when opening folders that have tons of videos in them, those also take seemingly ages to form thumbnails and fully load. And i'm using a M.2 NVME SSD as the main OS drive. This is something that microsoft has never fixed to this day, which is really annoying. After updating to Windows 11 22H2, the slow folder loading issues still persist. But now there's an even worse bug that is causing several games to inadvertently turn on debug mode and run that alongside the game you're playing, causing it to stutter intermittently. Microsoft said they were aware of this stutter bug and are working on a fix but my god is it annoying when gaming. I went and installed Windows 10 22H2 on a spare M.2 NVME SSD and that OS does not suffer from either of those 2 major bugs. Windows 10 22H2 is buttery smooth. Microsloth needs to up their game.
Thanks for this information, I was planning on upgrading to 11. Will hold up until it matures properly.
You mean Microsucks! I worked for Microsoft and talk about an epic shit show!
I am still having this issue, the only fix I know is to disable e cores on your 12th and 13th gen CPU. Kinda dumb when the main thing about these CPUs is the e cores
@@sp-xx8ty I've ditched my Windows 11 install and i've done a fresh install of Windows 10 22H2. The problems are gone. I'll wait for Windows 11 23H2 before I try again. Hopefully they will have ironed out the bugs by then.
Copy pate comment of one i made earlier.
Thats why you don't download windows 11.
Give it another 3-4 years.
It breaks everything.
Old man worked in networking, big help as to not have a beautiful rig fucked all because of an update.
Thats what i've learnt, you dont download shit when it's experimental or have fun having your hand forced in regards to fixing shit.
And with limited knowledge even decent knowledge, good luck.
Yo Tech Yes, have you taken a look at Linux and QEMU/Virtualbox (Windows virtualization)? Reason stopping me from going full Windows 11 is the privacy settings.
Thanks for the tip on the Windows 11 Key - I purchased one. All the other info is great too - subbed! 😀
Well detailed video.... however i will ride the win 10 boat until the very last second when they retire it in 2025 because 11 still doesn't seem to have more functionality i need in comparison to 10... it actually has less and has more complications associated with it.. Windows 10 all the way for now
What convinced me to get windows 11 is this: It took tons of effort to get resizable bar to finally say "YES". Enough effort that all the checkboxes for win11 update eligibility were also checked, so I thought let's try it. Do I like it? No. Will I keep it? Yes.
Hi Bryan, regarding the bar at the base of the screen, recently in Windows 10, it has started expanding to about 3 inches in height. By moving it to the left side and clicking... I have no idea how, it reverts to its normal size. Very helpful video, thanks and regards, Joe
I purchased WD SN750 SE 1TB NVMe so should I do a fresh Win10 Pro Install or go with Win11? I'll be using that system specifically for gaming.
I'm planning to stay with the mature Win10 until 2024 (or end of support 2025) but the development on Win11 is nice to see...
I so can't identify with this video - _at all._ I've installed win11 on 2 of my 4 machines, and I REALLY regret it.
* It's still far more buggy - just lots and lots of lack of polish bugs, but they really get on my nerves after a while. For example, last week's discovery was that search will find various settings buttons, but not check for updates when you search for "updates." It finds all kinds of stuff, but not that. Instead, it finds "Uninstall updates" - a feature I've literally never used. WTF.
* It's not faster in my experience; if anything I think it's slower.
* File Explorer sometimes suddenly freezes for seconds when opening it on one of the machines - the fastest one, of course, with only a PCIe 4.0 NVMe drive and 0 excuse for any hitches.
* The TPM requirement is annoying, and I don't trust it won't be abused for user tracking. I hate being forced into a microsoft account like this.
* Every few updates Microsoft tries to scam you into defaulting to the Edge browser and their own suite of apps. They call this finishing setting up my machine or something, which is naturally something that needs to happen every few months on a fully set-up machine.
* They're even abusing the security notification area to upsell to OneDrive - argument being, "what about ransomware?" Doesn't matter that I both have backups and google drive, yet more spam it is.
* It comes with all kinds of bloatware I don't want. No, I don't want Office. Nor onedrive. Nor billions of weird apps and whatnot you've preinstalled.
* You cannot uninstall this bloatware via any normal route; the add/remove programs section merely removes the icon - but other user accounts still have all those apps.
* It starts Edge behind the scenes on login to make sure you waste resources and made edge look faster.
* Even if you disable widgets, it's still running the widgets, just hiding them, and this has a measurable impact on benchmarks at least on my machine.
* They've enabled various security features - that are real, granted - that have perf overhead, even when those features are really, really marginal at best, to the point I'm skeptical this is very relevant for a home user. Maybe they don't do this if they detect the system is too slow; who knows. At the very least, I'd like an open and clear description of realistic attacks that end-users are likely to care about that these features supposedly prevent *with* diligent technical citations for everything (I'm a programmer and have worked both for and with pentest firms and wouldn't mind some technical jargon where necessary - I've looked and docs on these are pretty terrible, both for novice and expert readers. Perhaps if you're willing to spend days reading the implementation details and try to distill the essence yourself? No thanks.).
* The notification area on the start bar can't be completely unfolded, even on a 4k screen. You need to drag each icon individually. If a program occasionally changes or auto-updates, it's back to being hidden by default.
* I can't use a vertical taskbar, even on a wide screen, so totally pointless taskbar width it is.
* They've basically abolished the start menu - I've seen dozens of people use what used to be called the start menu; but literally nobody bothers to actually use it as a menu any more. And that's almost impossible to do in win11, because all the useful features are hidden away, and it's essentially a big box for ad placement now, and a way to get you to accidentally search with bing using edge. Why even have a start menu like this?
* Search uses bing and edge, even if you told windows not to.
* The start menu has yet more bloatware, but these icons aren't all installed, they're merely product placement that installs if you're unwise enough to actually click on anything.
* The start menu won't scale to content, it's just ugly and huge all the time, even if it's empty.
* The context menu looks sorta nice, but they've placed all kinds of actually useful commands behind a second click, so everything just takes longer to do now.
* The context menu icons are less distinctive, so it takes more hunting for the right icon.
This battle is lost; at some point we'll need to upgrade, because MS just doesn't care and you are the product, even if you paid for windows. But no need to accelerate the transition here. You can hack around some of the deficiencies, (which I'm doing because I doubt we'll get the option to stay on win10 for long), but why oh why is that even necessary.

Hi Bryan, I have Windows 10 Pro. When Windows 11 Pro came in to being, I moved over to it, but didn't find it easy enough, so I moved back to Windows 10. My PC was OK at that time but now shows as not ready, though all is the same. It isn't recognising the TMP though it was showing as 2.0 before. I wonder if there is a way it could have been disabled, in my opinion I may have done this, not physically but perhaps followed some instruction or similar that I would look for; at that time if I recall correctly and in my opinion: there may have been messages to move back to Windows 11 Pro, and back then I was happy with version 10. Please advise if any of your videos might help me get back to version 11. Thanks and Regards Joe
I have a weird bug (might or not be related to Windows 11) where switching audio from Speaker to Headphones now requires to open the sound console and do the change automatically. It never happened before, Windows 10 and earlier did recognize the front headphone jack and did the switch back and forth automatically.
Well my laptop recognizes my earphones instantly so it's not a Win 11 issue.

I got a lot more stutters in my games when I upgraded to windows 11 about 6 months ago. It was a mess overall and had to fresh install w10 after a month. Now I'm scared of trying it out again. 😅 Maybe next year when I upgraded my setup for hdr
Better wait until W10 is no longer supported.
So true when my system came with Windows 11 loads of stutters in games and downgraded to Windows 10 it's all fine

On Win 11, can you add "Quick Launch" toolbar like in the old XP, 7 and 10?
And no, I'm not referring to pining programs to the task bar, those are bulkier and take a lot of space.
probably not. you can't even use the taskbar on the side of a monitor. you know, the side with MORE free real estate. you HAVE to decrease your already relatively narrow vertical space. makes extra sense in ultrawide monitors, since there's so little horizontal space, right?
@@GraveUypo Yeah these are the 2 main reasons I won't be upgrading, I love having my task bar on the left with one column for open applications and another quick launch column to open my frequently used stuff.
ah yeah the old quick launch >>
Hey Tech and chat, I have a laptop and a PC which were both licenced using School activation. Now I've finished school and would like to know do I need to buy 2 product keys, or 1 product key can work on both my devices?
Moved to 11 last week. In truth, other than the Start Menu and Taskbar, I have not noticed any differences. Early days.
The most annoying thing in Win11 is the hiding into sub-folders of the right-mouse click item of Refresh-button, imho. Recently after WU the screencapture feature window-button + Shift+ S or what it used to be is vanished from my key strokes
use (startallback) it brings back old menus in win 11 style i'm using it and i made a mix between win7 and 11 including win 7 explorer
For me dark mode should be on 24/7. I really like startisback on windows 11. I also like that Cortana is out of the picture. I have yet to use file explorer tabs. I always change the defaults to things like chrome, vlc and ifranview right away. I dislike the Your Phone feature so I got rid of mine
Should change the default to Firefox instead of Chrome :( Goddamn Google lol
Question: When I make win 11 usb boot media can I put personal folder with files on it afterwards or will it somehow interfere with the boot media?
I'm using a 49" ultra wide monitor, and running Windows 10. I like having thins on the center of the task bar personally. There is a trick that I used to center the quick launch icons, but the start menu is still at the bottom left, and the time is at the bottom right. I also have a 7" second monitor that I have setup with a sensory panel. On mentioned sensory panel, I have included the volume level, and the time.
Finally I got it from keyr (Make sure to include the dot (.) between "keyr" and "org")
I like some of the transitions, but sometimes they're a bit too much and are seemingly random. Since we use these persistent elements that transition across pages to indicate some kind of relationship between the previous and the next states, some of your transitions confuse me because I can't immediately see what the relationship is.
For example 2:23 of the selectable tiles (which weren't selected) transition into being two switches... does that mean anything? are they related in some way? I see this as random and a bad use of the design language. However, at 1:14 I like the transition from switches to the ticks on a paper, that makes sense to me. Epic presentation tho
Having done a complete new PC build, I just went with Windows 11 for the longevity. But mainly because of the HDR shortcut (Win+Alt+B) which I did not have on Win 10. lol
Yep, I love Windows 11 just for this shortcut too haha
thanx for a good and useful video. Just have some advice for voice recorded. next time please ride of some rumble under 98-100Hz by simple hi pass EQ. On my monitors its obviously can be heard and not so good.
Your content is perfect love this video I’m gonna check out your other videos
I like windows 11 now, but only with a custom taskbar. With native taskbar you can't move it to the side or top.
Been on Windows 11 fully most of this year. I first upgraded my desktop (use it less than my laptop) then once I determined it to be pretty usable, I updated my laptop. No issues I can think of. My favorite feature is the multiple desktops as I now how 4 depending on what I do. My work laptop is still on 10 and I sometimes miss that feature when working on multiple projects.
install fences on windows 10. it's way better than w11's implementation and it exists since like forever ago.
Multiple desktops are in win10 without any third party support needed?
@@GraveUypo nice tip. I had no clue.
I've had that facility on W10 for ages (years, really) with "Fences" which does a great job of it.
Will the windows update still work on older system running windows 11?
Used Win 11 for a year, hated it. Just downgraded back to Win 10 which I find far more superior in my opinion. Biggest problem for me was the look and feel of Win 11. I'm a 54 year old computer professional working with them daily. Micro$ofts bloatware and ridiculous amount of data collection is scary (most of it can be turned off ) Only reason I use Micro$oft is because of the software I use. Linux is heading in the right direction though and maybe one day will take their crown. Micro$ofts Win XP was king and still holds the crown for longevity I believe.
XP was amazing. 95 was crash happy, and on 98 my PC would crash every single day. I was so happy when I got a new PC with XP.
Everyone loved XP, even the military. I think the military still mostly uses Windows XP to this day, unless Microsoft has finally screwed the pooch
The only nice thing I got from going from win 7 to win 10, was windows 10 remembering the file explorer windows I had open.
Windows 11 is pretty much just worse on all fronts for day to day userbility.
I swapped to win 11 recently, so far so good, i remember when win10 had a problems, when win7 was actual and look how that turned up at end.
Great video, made me courageous enough to go with Win11 on my 13700k 4080 build.
The task bar thing really annoyed me on my Win11 PC at work.
Isn't there peer to peer download in Windows 10 as well?
I have the options for download optimization as well and still on Win10
When I used Windows 11 on my laptop for a couple of months, it gave me massive input lag.
I had no idea what was doing it, but it was in multiple games and made things completely unplayable at times.
Switched back to Windows 10, never had that issue again.
I don’t know if it would happen again with my new PC, but I don’t think it would be a great idea to try.
Huh. I think the reason for your problem might be the requirements In there were all most minimal. Also I had that problem when my thermal paste was fading away. I still think its about your computer being too low end.
@@mursudetti7599 Yeah was definitely the requirements, but even then they said my laptop would be fine if I upgraded and meet the requirements.
Not sure who’s at fault- Me for listening, or Microsoft for telling me it was all good 🤷🏽♂️
I've tried three time to run 11 and everytime the bugs have made me go back to 10, especially with office 365 it was really janky, also MW5 wouldn't run on 11 at all, don't know what the hell was up with that.
I'm not so sure about "All the requirements have been removed" part, as I still can't upgrade and its seemingly due to the insistence of MS that my table be in GPT format. I have tried 2 techniques that I found online to convert without losing my data. Both failed to work. Any tips are welcome.
The most recent update of Windows 11, at random times I can't left click. Swapped mice, full driver reinstall and enabled mousekeys in the accessibility options so you can use the numpad to click and it still won't let you left click until you do a reboot.
Funniest thing in Windows 11 is right click "updated" menu on a desktop, when you press show more options in the bottom - it will show old Win 10 menu with mostly the same options you just saw, lol
It's useless but you can fix it with a registry tweak. I banished the new context menu so I just get the 'more options' menu as soon as I right click.
@@talibong9518 Do you know anything about Start menu apps recent files with right click? In Windows 11, I can put apps on taskbar and see recent opened files or pinned by me, but not in start menu, what's up with that?
It is very useful feature, Windows 10 has it, why they turned it off in W11?
The biggest change that is holding me back is the inability to "ungroup" task bar items.
Exactly, everyone who does anything productive on their PC is angry about this.
No taskbar labels as well, what were they thinking
Thanks for the excellent content, however I couldn't really follow it because of the horrrible thumping bass. Was this really necessary? Did you mix it in deliberately? Would be much more accessible without.
Did Windows 10 get Auto-HDR support recently? I don't see that term specifically but HDR is now an option under the Xbox Game Bar (don't remember it being there from earlier this year). It never used to look good for SDR content (games) but it looks way better now (LG OLED C9). I'm just not sure if it's supposed to look even better in Windows 11 or if the feature was simply "ported" over to Windows 10. I know there's an HDR calibration tool for Windows but it's only compatible for 11.
I may be an exception, wanting to have one machine, that runs all the games I've ever bought. This is why to me backwards compatibility is the most important aspect of any new Windows release.
What is always missing in these reports is any mention of if getting old titles running is harder than on previous versions of Windows. Overall at first I very much disliked Windows 10 as getting Windows 95 and 98 titles running is a huge amount of work compared to what needed to be done on Windows 7. After two years of tinkering with said programs from time to time, I finally managed to get 1006 titles of 1016 running. Granted for some I had to use virtual machines but they are useable.
So while I still kinda like Windows 7 more, I can atleast say that with a ton workarounds and a big time investment, Windows 10 is allright.
Can that be said about Windows 11 as well?
Give me an example of an old game you're trying to play and I will try it and let you know. I have tried Fallout 3 (2008), Flatout 2 (2006) and The Witcher (2007) and they work with no issues.

@@Revan-kq7ih Update 1: 30/11/2022 So I downloaded Battlefield 1942 on my W11 Laptop (not retail, just torrent). I have only played 2 Multiplayer matches in Omaha Beach. Nothing else.
Specs:
CPU: i3-1115G4
GPU: Intel UHD 630
RAM: 16 GB DDR4-3200
My observation
- The Menu is not Full Screen, it's centered. This is not the case in Gameplay.
- Performance is excellent. I am getting 180-200 FPS at 1080p highest settings.
Let me know what issue you faced when playing it on W10. I can test that part specifically.
This video opened my eyes and actually makes me want to try it. I also didn't know that Microsoft went a full 180 on the 8th gen plus limit, but i kinda expected that. Makes me want to dedicate a machine for W11 for testing.
My old laptop - a dual Pentium based system was not upgradable to 11, but was excruciatingly slow, despite the memory upgraded to 8GB. So I bought a Surface Pro 9, which was on a deal at Costco, and it comes pre-loaded w/ 11. So far, haven't had too many complaints about it
mmmm, e-cookie, my favorite.
How does playing games on linux compare to windows? Regardless of 10 or 11. Is there a performance penalty? I have an all AMD (AM4 + Radeon) system.
Yes, it is better. But I dont like the UI and some of the default settings, so I change it to my preference. And some settings now require that you edit the registry, which is a really bad decision in my opinion. But it is much more stable, and it has some really nice features. Most of the complaints I hear from colleagues etc. boils down to that they dont like change. I have never tried the home version though. If you dont like that MS tries to force you into signing up for an MS account, you can try to sign in with an account that is blocked (for too many login attempts). When it fails, the installer will create a local admin account for you.
I love the HDR improvements in Windows 11 if you have a decent HDR monitor.
@An Equal Better tone mapping, also auto HDR for apps and games that dont natively support it (this can be turned off if it doesnt look good for your specific use case though). Automatic Brightness Limiting isnt as severe as W10, but this is also very monitor dependent. Overall, I love the switch from 10 to 11, because Im using the Alienware QD OLED monitor. If you're only using a mid range to lower end monitor though (basically any monitor without full array backlights or OLED display) I dont think its worth it for the HDR experience. There are quite a few other reasons Im enjoying W11 after the switch, but that'll vary from person to person and your general workflow.
In Windows 11, I can put apps on taskbar and see recent opened files or pinned by me, but not in start menu, what's up with that?
It is very useful feature, Windows 10 has it, why they turned it off in W11?
You can use the Rufus work around to upgrade as well as do a fresh install. It will give you that option. I've just upgraded one pc from 10 to 11 and I'm working on the second one as I type this post.
I still think that Windows 10 + Power Toys is superior to Windows 11. What I also dislike about Windows 11 and didn't see mentioned is the limitation to the taskbar positioning on screen and resizing. That's incredibly annoying and a limitation for the sake of if.
also fences. can't forget fences. and open shell! that too, definitely.
I used to just look on my second monitor's Taskbar for the time. Now with 11, I cannot. I had to get a clock to hang on the wall. Thanks Microsoft
Over the last week I have been using W11 on a new laptop, initially thinking of going back to W10, but I have now changed my mind. W11 has an easy learning curve because it's not that different from W10. However, I would be happy to use windows 10 again If I had too.
I have been using windows 11 on one pc and windows 10 on other, past year the experience with windows 11 has been worse than using Windows vista back then. its absolutely joke of a OS developement.
and the way how they release updates that fix one thing and breaks another has me doubting if microsoft can ever release anything good anymore, its clearly outsourcing everything tho india or some other third world country.
I wont go into detail about any GUI changes etc. those are subjective. i am upset about core mechanics of fucking windows, for example one update messed up ability to create new folders, and none of the future updates ever fixed it for me, for past 6 months to create new folder i have to open cmd and make it trough it. this is how pathetic is windows 11.
and no ITS NOT acceptable to demand you reinstall clean OS every update.
I'd still be fine with Win 3.11, it just does not have any support any more. Windows since XP has built in bloatware.
@@magnusnilsson9792 I remember when people were talking about how great is Win 7 was, i had it in my astro laptop until i am no longer going to use that laptop and hate Win 7 completely now, same with Win 10 or 8 or 11 or 15.11 maybe.
just started using windows 11 to try HDR calibration so far everything is working fine for the most part. though CPU performance is worse in windows 11 given that most software isn't updated to work with the new thread director. as a result in CPU benchmarks like cinebench R23(18,000+multicore) and intel XTU2 (7000+) I can manage decent scores on my 12700k. but in 3Dmark's CPU benchmark the scores are garbage at 13000.
Yea my mate helped me to upgrade to windows 11 last week, I was having trouble finding the settings in my bios. So far I've had a couple of blue screens, but that could be anything and not necessarily to do with windows 11. But it seems pretty good, it's for the most part working well. I did notice the HDR thing although it letting you know every time, feels a bit much. So far in terms of bugs I've not come across any, it seems more stable than windows 10 did throughout much of it's early cycle....But it's microsoft so I'm not holding my breath, but so far I will say it's not bad.
with only 13% adoption rate for windows 11 i'm not holding my breath for it to succeed
Many will be "forced" to go win 11 in the coming years because new pc releases and laptops will only have win 11 for free/discount
Win 11 is utter garbage. I work in IT and all there is issues.
An OS over which you have no control or say what you can and cannot do is utter BS. I am owning the computer, and bought the OS, so why can't I manage and admin my own stuff?
you work in IT and yet you dont understand how windows OS licenses work? According to MS: "A software license gives a person (or an institution) the right to use a software product in a particular way. The terms of the license agreement describe the permitted uses of the software. Copyright law also limits how a person may use the software...." just because you paid for the OS, doesn't mean you can have direct control over everything.
I have a feeling a bios update would resolve a lot of the issues, mainly the stuttering. No mention ?
the required microsoft account is a thing even in windows 10 if you connect to an internet when asked or have an ethernet plugged in your only option is to sign in.and dark mode works on windows 10 also unless it applies in some extra places that it didn't for 10? seeing the improved gaming performance I may give it a try but I have mainly been sitting back as bugs and ftpm stutter etc get figured out
nope, don't wanna ruin the optimizations of my games. I'll stick with 10 until we literally can't anymore
As old saying goes, Why fix it if ain't broken. Windows 10 is a stable OS why would you gumble to windows 11 if you don't know if your softwares will work fine with the new update
Great video. Anyway I always wait 1 year before considering an OS upgrade ... but for Windows 11 , I will skip: secure boot does not play nice with dual booting Linux and being forced to link to a MSFT account is a big No for me. But for the rest, Win 11 is quite cool overall.
I just skip every other version of windows, Vista, 8 and 10 were all awful at launch but 7, 8.1 and 11 I started using at beta releases because they were usable at day one
The bigger iffi i have with Win11 is the context menu. Should make permanent text labels an option
What would be your opinion regarding Intelligent Standby List Cleaner for Windows 11? Those Pro keys are for OEM, not retail, which I would prefer. Can't have everything.
I've been using windows 11 for a while now and i've been happy with it. No major problems/bugs, just a few compatibility issues with very old stuff.
It's lags compared to 10 , i tried 11 tons of times
Those who know:💀
Those who dont: 🤨
you have to double right click in order to get the full context menu, just why? why?!!!
Still cannot position the task bar on the left, right and top, right?
My laptop just recently upgraded to Windows 11 and my desktop is running on Windows 10. I could say I prefer to use my desktop more for work than on my laptop because a lot of the taskbar menu placements and a bunch of other stuff on the W11 that was changed disrupted my workflow. The latest build in W10 also felt snappier especially in file manager compared to W11's. Those new features and improvements in W11 could've been just another W10 update instead sheesh.
And worst part is that they didnt even upgrade all of the interface there are still lots of GUI elements from many of hte previous interfaces that have to be opened for few specific options.
Its basically windows vista 2.0
A couple of notes about Windows 11 from my observations... Windows 11 primarily served as a marketing refresh for Microsoft. It is much easier for them to appeal by marketing some new and refreshed product (even though it is not too much different from 10) than it is for them to market a minor update to Win10. Secondly, Windows 10 has a significantly more consistent and smooth UI than Windows 10, which I have enjoyed. I do think that the Start menu could use a little work in Windows 11 to catch up to Windows 10, though they have been consistently updating these and past features to fit with the refreshed design. Long story short, you think of Windows 11 as a combination of a Windows 10 re-skin, refreshed marketing model for MS, as well as updated UI to match capabilities of newer hardware, it is a rather nice upgrade. I understand why people make fun of Windows 11 due to its similarities to 10 and MS's comments on it being their "last OS." Forthe former, however, why fix what isn't broken with Windows 10. And for the latter, it was unrealistic promise to stick with Win10 given changes in hardware and marketing. This in mind, there are of course bugs and things that need to be smoothed over with 11, but I think there has been considerable progress.
What do u mean with bugs? Are there problems with some games or does it generally have bugs?
Is the taskbar still locked to the bottom of the screen?
I can't make the move to 11 knowing I'll be stuck with it down there.
All the other options like : Pin to Quick access, copy, paste, file, home, share, view, minimize, maximize, close... ... why make me move the cursor all the way to the bottom of the screen when everything else that needs clicking at the top of the screen ?
It doesn't make any sense when you think of economy of motion.
I have a 7700k on a z170, 16gb ddr4, 128GB SSD for the os and a 980Ti. Windows tells me I don't meet the requirements, what should I do?
I used every windows version since 3.1. Win 11 is fine. Win 10 updates bricked my rig twice. The only bug win 11 gave me so far was the start menu refusing to launch for 1 update.
3 Things that I will only upgrade to windows 11 if and only if.
1. I have a new PC to Build
2. If My Drive gets corrupted and needed a new install.
3. If Microsoft will stop supporting windows 10.
simply because why would I fix something if ain't broken. windows 10 is a stable Os why need to upgrade it and it carries alot of of programs and softwares that my have issue with 11.
Do you still get the annoying white flash in dark mode when you open explorer etc, its pretty bad in win 10.
Literally was looking for a video like this yesterday, I needed an update 🤣 perfect timing sir
You've just convinced me not to "upgrade" to Win11. There doesn't seem to be any important advantage. So why would I go through the hassle? I'll just ignore it, just like I did for Win8 and Vista. ;)
as a windows 10 and 11 user, win 11 been on my personal rig and 10 on my work laptop in my opinion win 11 is the way to go, when going back to win 11 i notice how much nicer the UI and animations are, it feels smoother to use and more polished compared to 10, but 11 is always getting updates which can be annoying but if you just need an old version windows that does the job and your just a casual user 10 will be better for you as there is a learning curve with 11 that you might struggle with.
@@TC-tn9tb you didn't list a single reason to update. in fact you listed reasons not to, because i hate the windows 11 UI
Pretty cool video. Upgrading tomorrow
Will you be making a Tech Yes lite edition Win 11 .iso for us to try? I'm still on the old 10 lite and still feels fast af...would much prefer to go a similar route with 11 from the get go :)
Been using win11 since it came out. Has been great!
🧢🧢🧢
do not upgrade.
it's windows 10 with a skin on top.
when you right click it gives you a new menu.
you suddenly find your shell integration missing.
select more options it gives you the old win10 menu.
you are doing more unnecessary clicking.
the rounded corner is stupid.
if you play a game in windowed mode it will be cropped. and you can't fit it nicely in a corner without that pixel in the corner sticking out.
