HI @Judge
Is it still your opinion to skip Windows 11?
I have a new computer that is running Windows 10 and it now wants to update to W11, but I am not sure.
It is, though a user like myself has better options. Such as Linux Mint distributions, which I have concluded over the last two years remain superior operating systems to anything that Microsoft can dish out. However one has to have a certain degree of skills in installing them, depending on the individual PC one has.
In my case it took some real work to get everything to operate properly and optimally, as the system I built is more than twelve years old. Far past Microsoft's unreasonable eligibility requirements for Windows 11.
Frankly keeping track of all of the Windows 11 ups and downs along with so many security concerns, it makes me cringe for much of anyone forced to use it. But then personally even in the days when I used only Microsoft operating systems, I'd always hold out until the latest version was relatively free of bugs. And Windows 10 will remain supported until October 2025, so you still have time to hold out. Not to mention if you are presently satisfied with Windows 10. These days the only time I even use Windows 10 is just to update it and little else.
In essence I wouldn't upgrade until you have to, and hold out for Windows 12. Or consider another system, like Linux or Mac, or even Google. As for Windows 12, Microsoft has already announced it won't happen this year. Looks like they are bolstering Windows 11 in the meantime. Nothing like "putting lipstick on a pig".
