    If I upgrade from 21H1 to win 11, will the settings like gpedit will revert to default?

    I installed .NET Framework 3.5 and kb5004034, same issue.

    Also I tested Windows 10 21H1 in the same network, which doesn't have such problem.

    I wrote earlier that I installed the Soltex 1.7 Hz Celeron on my old motherboard through WinNTSetup/.

    Any suggestions on how to neuter winds 11 from telemetry and junk?

    The Taskbar in this build is missing a lot of the old options. It can't be resized or moved. The Clock is awful and can't be changed. I tried the small icon registry thing mentioned earlier in the thread but that just made the icons fuzzy.

    As for the Start Menu, it's like some weird hybrid between a KDE and Gnome launcher. I tried putting the old start menu back. It works but if you decide to stay with the icons in the middle of the taskbar the menu still opens on the left.

    Does the new taskbar still have this weird icon resize/resample issue where the running/pinned program's 32x32 px icon is resized to 24x24 px
    or a 24x24 px icon is upscaled to 32x32 and then back to 24x24 px resulting in a blurry taskbar icon no matter what?

    Shouldn't this discussion be in a new sub forum named Windows 11? I guess that will happen after the announcement on the 24th.

    Once official news and downloads directly from MS exist I am sure they will reorganize things and make official threads.

    Just installed the Windows 11 ISO using MSMG's workaround. I used Rufus to make a Windows 10 21H1 USB stick and then replaced the install.wim in the sources folder with that from the Windows 11 ISO.

    So far so good, Windows Updates picked up all of the drivers well except for the fingerprint scanner. Using the Windows 10 driver immediately fixed that.

    I quite like the acrylic/frosted glass look they're going with in the transparency. Other than that I find nothing fundamentally different with Windows 10. The centered taskbar is weird too, I mean if they'd stick with that look moving forward I hope they do something to make it work like a dock or a panel. This gives off a lot of ChromeOS vibes with how minimalist it approaches the taskbar. The start menu is also quite counterproductive in my opinion, I mean I don't want it to be riddled with tiles but just having half the start menu to be for pinned apps and the other half for ads is a tad bit too much. I wish they would change it to have the shortcuts to Windows Explorer and settings or to have it go straight to all apps.

    After one day of using Windows 11
    Everything is deleted, just like in the previous version with scripts.
    I realized that this is not Windows 11 but rather a beta version of Microsoft's Chinese Office and has nothing to do with the new Windows 11 !
    This is a hoax
