What are your thoughts on Windows 11?

My wife accidentally did an update on my PC and I did do the dumb thing of enabling my TPM 2.0 in UEFI at the stage of PC Health Check ready for the day I'd update over.

From there I recently had an annoying error with exclamation security in core isolation warning 'Local Security Authority protection is off'.

The fix was literally to go in to my registry editor and add a new DWORD (32bit value) for RunAsPPLBoot and set the value to (2) and reboot.

It did fix the issue, but it left me thinking most casual PC people do not want to have to go to these lengths to fix a bug from a mandatory Windows Defender security update.

I know a lot of users on this forum probably tinker a bit with PCs but what are your thoughts for the average user to use Windows 11? I feel like it's a great system but it has its problems right now. Clan Defy -

I haven't updated to Windows 11 on my PC or laptop.


I think one of the changes is the layout when you click on the start button in Windows 10 where you have all those stupid live windows. I believe that has changed in Windows 11.

I upgraded to Windows 11 on an "unsupported" i7-4790K and it works absolutely fine. I do have a removable TPM module installed but it's version 1.2. Overall thoughts towards the operating system are positive, but the same cannot be said about Microsoft's arbitrary system requirements. Low on bank space? Click here .

I updated a while ago, it had a lot of nuisances to begin with. But after a long awaited update I finally got my clock on all my monitors instead of just the main one xD
They also added back the ability to right click your process bar to open your task monitor. Had to right click the start button before lol.

The start menu is alright if you move it back out where it belongs, you just have to get used to it not automatically opening list of all programs. Personally I always use search feature to find a program I haven't pinned though.

Some settings have been burried deeper and become harder to find, annoying. Do yourself a favour and go through the control panel which hasn't been fundamentally changed since decades ago.

That's all I can think of for now.

The System I have now won't support it. Unless I tweek a few things then I can fool it into installing.

After reading a lot and I mean a lot of reviews and watching a shed load of videos I can't see me installing it. The reason why is right now I've very little spying on me. Upgrading to Windows 11 just has way too many things that spy on you and watch everything you do. Not that I've anything to hide but come on there are times when you want no one peeking at you even from afar..... Privacy matters to me and Microsoft just know or want to know way too much.

No idea how they got away with all the Spy Shit but they need to stop.

When I upgrade my System in the next year or so then I'll install it and turn all the shitty spy stuff off lol.

For now Windows 10 does me. Comprehensive Account Security

My enterprise Pc's are still on 10 but played around with 11 a while back. Honestly I don't see an incentive in upgrade at this time. As many people have also pointed out, there's so much background processes being done in tracking your every move, causing systems to be more unstable.

I moved to Windows 11 very early, and have had no major problems with it. It seems more stable than earlier iterations of the OS, which is a key issue for me.
