Live4Him Posted January 7, 2023 Share Posted January 7, 2023 I know this is an old post but I work in IT and you have to be careful with windows 11. I have stayed on windows 10 and all the guys I work with that were so eager for 11 rolled back to windows 10 within a couple of days. Windows 11 even now still has a lot of compatibility problems not only on the networking side of it but also problems with some software not working with it. One of our staff that works in accounting decided to upgrade his laptop on his own and could no longer use some of his software until he got back on windows 10. Microsoft has always put out junk every other "new" version of windows. Windows 10 was good. Windows 11 is junk. The next version they will hopefully realize they made a mistake trying to reinvent the wheel like they did with windows 8 and go back to what actually works. I say we all ditch windows and use Linux. the world would be a much happier place. Joke phkrause 1 Quote Thy word is a lamp to my feet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windows 11 is junk Ain't that the way it always goes? When I was in the Graphic Arts business, actually Printing, I worked with both PCs and Macs. Didn't really care that much with PCs, but didn't have a problem with them. I worked more with Macs, pretty much never had a problem upgrading them, each new OS always better than the previous one! Nothing like the PCs where you never knew if the upgrade would be good or not. Anyway I agree with you.
