It's a free upgrade. Bitching about the version is insane. It was a marketing change they turned around on. It still meant you get a free upgrade which used to cost money.
Not if your PC doesn't support some arbitrary requirements. I can't upgrade because of the TPM requirement. There are ways to get around it. But at the same time Windows 11 isn't really something I want to upgrade to. It's got a bunch of crap I don't need or want. Not that Windows 10 didn't. Windows 11 is just worse and I've drawn a line.
I have to use Windows 11 for work so I know what I'm missing. Nothing. Well, the screenshot button being mapped to the snipping tool is nice. But there is already a shortcut for the snipping tool.
TPM isn't arbitrary, it's the path to a new from of CPU embedded, digital rights management that will marry your software to your cpu and make it non-transferable. The end goal being some successor of pluton where all code you download is encrypted and you can't ever see it.
You won't be able to jailbreak your PC in the future, just like 99% of smartphones.
Absolute nonsense 🤣
Hail the corporate god! Repent, for the end of Windows 10 is near!
Judging from your username, you also like those built-in AI features.
No, just an understanding how a court room works.
His response had nothing to do with a courtroom you negative IQ weirdo
Let me quote the literal first line in this thread.
He'd probably have an easier time with the lawsuit if instead of appealing to upgrade logic, he just went with, I don't know...
Boy you look foolish 🤣
Cool now try reading his response, which was about upgrading and not the courtroom. I am clearly dealing with a lesser evolved being without reading comprehension skills
Win 11 is a downgrade with forced ms accounts, more ads, more distractions (tabloid "news", weather, more ads, Microsoft own product ads) added to task bar, edge and notifications. On an OS I already paid money for!
And? What does that have to do with a lawsuit? You're going to go into court and argue that? It's amazing how hard it is for some to stay on topic.
Ah got it, you are some AI bot trying to troll.
