    Please just force me to upgrade to Windows 11 already. I’d love to, but my hardware doesn’t satisfy some arbitrary requirements they set for Windows 11.

      I thought that too, with the TPM thing

      Turns out it’s just turned off by default on a lot of mobos. You just go into bios and enable it

      Then use a program called Rufus to make a bootable flash drive but without all the shite and spyware, and just upgrade W10 to 11 in minutes

      Honestly I put it off for ages because of everyone saying how bad it was, turns out they just don’t know how to customise it to their liking

      Probably spending too much time trying to get their printer to work on Linux lol

        My pc auto-upgraded because I donwloaded what I thought was just a regular update. I’ve been using 11 for like a year already, and it’s fine. Install powertoys, run christitus utility… The one thing that really bothered me for a while was not having as granular of a control of my taskbar, but that only lasted for like two weeks.

      Mine doesn’t satisfy them, either. I switched off TPM in BIOS.
