Windows 11
Re: Windows 11
I like it. I haven't had a thing not work or anything more awkward to do than before. On the whole I'm a fan of the look of it too.

If anyone else is having this issue where it says you need to refresh the PC to fix screen snip, I looked up this fix online and can confirm it works.
Turn off auto date and time, change the date to Oct 31st, open screen snip and press new (won't crash now), then turn auto date and time back on.

Has there been a workaround for ineligible PC’s yet? My other laptop should be well able to run it (as good or better specs as the one it’s installed on) but probably hasn’t that tpm thing.
Re: Windows 11
For anyone wondering about trying out their own, I came across this artcle on The Verge that mentioned the same i7-7700HQ processor in my laptop and can confirm it works.
Re: Windows 11
The cheap laptop at home was upgraded to Win11 while the photo processing rig is "stuck" with Win10. Having messed with Win11, I decided that I'm happy that the photo processing rig can't be upgraded.
I passed the Win11 laptop over to a family member and they are happy with it.

Re: Windows 11
Well, what's the verdict so far ? I have the option to download it now on my home computer. Any problems with program compatibility ? Any hits on performance after it ?
Re: Windows 11
Just to update, done a clean install on my computer with Windows 11. No problems during install and all my old programs are working without a bother.
Nice desktop. And has an option for multiple desktop sessions if you've only got one screen. Bit better performance wise than Windows 10. But that could be due to it being fresh install.
Re: Windows 11
Whether you get a performance boost (or hit!) depends on which CPU you have. Techspot tested a load of them and got various results.
I noticed last night my young lad has updated his PC to Win11 so may have a play round tonight.

... For the most part there is little to no difference between Windows 11 and Windows 10 using Intel 10th and 11th-gen Core series processors across gaming, application, and storage performance. If you’ve experienced a notable drop in performance since upgrading, it’s well worth checking to see if VBS is enabled and do something about that as we explained in the intro.
In a nutshell, Windows 11 offers no real performance advantage over Windows 10 with perhaps the only exception being random read/write storage performance, but we won’t know if this was limited to our test configuration or not until we conduct further testing. On that note, we're keen to see what Windows 11 does for Intel’s upcoming Alder Lake CPUs, as well as a look at Ryzen which recently received a patch that addresses L3 cache performance issues.

^^^^^ so ask for windoze 10 on that cool gaming PC you intend playing that cool 3D FPS on!
