Do you believe Microsoft is going to rebrand Windows 10 to something else?

  2. No chance, they are going to cling to the "Windows 10" brand for as long as they can.

    Me, everything is working perfectly. It's better than any stable Windows 10 ISO and snappier.

    Just the GUI and the minimum requirements changed, in the core it still is 10.

    The same options to avoid the need for an online account for home (sl) are still accurate.

    TPM 2.0 requirement really sucks for my system :(

    My system is more than capable of running the operating system (i7 4790k, 32GB RAM, 1080 TI, NVME SSD) but a DRM / Encryption requirement is going to be the blocker... :\

    If it ends up being tricky to bypass by the time RTM comes around, for anyone who also lacks TPM, keep in mind LTSC 2019 is supported until 2029 which will keep your system maintained and protected. The upcoming LTSC only has a 5 year life cycle. By 2029 I'll definitely have a new system... so at least I won't be left unsupported.

    So if you have TPM 2.0 then you'll be recommended not to upgrade?

    Maybe the doc is wrong and it should be Soft floor = TPM 1.2 and Hard floor = TPM 2

    But in my opinion "upgrade is not advised" still means you can upgrade it

    It looks like Microsoft wants to create confusion.
    First it says TPM 2.0 is needed.
    Then it says TPM 1.2 is needed and that PC's with TPM 2.0 should not upgrade.
    :confused:

    The >= symbols means "major or equal to" so, if your mobo has TPM v1.2 or more recent (e.g 2.0) you are good to go update.

    • Security: TPM Version >= 1.2 and SecureBootCapable = True

    So the Taskbar is changed now, does it still use Shell32 or is it UWP system which wraps around Win32 applications and their notification systems, The depreciated page link takes to the Taskbar docs only but it's not updated for Win11. They modified that a lot we do not see the old Taskbar options at all like Label combine and resizing, it goes to Settings. This has to be the biggest change that Win11 has and their new explorer.exe information density change. Both of these are anti productive for Desktop / Notebook PCs. But since they do not want to provide anything to Desktop experience, everything is made for touch only. Horrible. Makes a TON of sense, when you look at their new junk videos on how they designed it, all those have no clue how Windows works.

    Soft Floor:

    • Security: TPMVersion >= 2.0
    • CPU Generation
    and devices that meet the soft floor will receive a notification that upgrade is not advised.
