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

    Yes and Windows 12 will be more stable. We must maintain the following pattern :)

    Windows 95=Unstable
    Windows 98=Stable
    Windows Millenium=Unstable
    Windows XP=Stable
    Windows Vista=Unstable
    Windows 7=Stable
    Windows 8.X=Unstable
    Windows 10=Stable
    Windows 11=Unstable
    Windows 12=Stable

    ...just kidding, of course.

    You're doing it wrong somehow.
    Use this script. Save as net3.cmd and run it.
    Code:
    @echo off

    :-------------------------------------
    REM  --> Check for permissions
    >nul 2>&1 "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\cacls.exe" "%SYSTEMROOT%\system32\config\system"
    
    REM --> If error flag set, we do not have admin.
    if '%errorlevel%' NEQ '0' (
    echo:
    echo   Requesting Administrative Privileges...
    echo   Press YES in UAC Prompt to Continue
    echo:
    
        goto UACPrompt
    ) else ( goto gotAdmin )
    
    :UACPrompt
        echo Set UAC = CreateObject^("Shell.Application"^) > "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"
        echo UAC.ShellExecute "%~s0", "", "", "runas", 1 >> "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"
    
        "%temp%\getadmin.vbs"
        exit /B

    Yes and you can still join the Dev channel which is required to get the latest Windows 11 builds.

    Seriously we went from 8 to 80..

    Win10 => Almost any CPU was fine

    Win11 = You need a 3 year old CPU

    Most WSL2/hyper-v users with TPM enabled are OK for upgrade to Windows 11. If you have TPM enabled and it stills complains make sure you have Virtualization (VT-x, AMD-v) ENABLED in your UEFI

    It makes sense that Microsoft Telemetry got all the information bank they needed from that brute forcing of Windows 10 onto consumers. Now they do not need that anymore, bonus pack is OEMs will ship the machines with Win11 and the cost will be transferred to consumer this is about those Thin and Light BGA machines. They want everyone on Secure Boot and Full UEFI. But my question is one more thing, can we run Windows 11 without Secure Boot ? Because for instance I have a Windows 7 which uses CSM Option and no Secure Booot, M$ is mandating all CSM installations out of commission to let Windows 11 install on the machine itself.

    Holy damn M$ is really shameless on pulling a plug giving people middle finger who own Intel Skylake and Ryzen 2000 even. It works but how many tech savvy people can run them ? Most of them are dumb except mdl and other few forums userbase.
