Is Windows 11 coming? Microsoft gives us a hint

[Darthagnon]

My 2 cents on Windows 11:

Kinda funny to see M$ ripping off FalconX/TaskbarX and MacOS with the centred taskbar thing. They never did it before. Why now?

Mac OS wallpapers in Windows 11. I don't like it; they smell like that "corporate art style" that's everywhere (Edgium settings, Google account settings, etc.)

Most funny is the Start Menu. I haven't used it, but it looks a lot like it's reverted to Win7-type navigation, despite appearance differences - e.g. limited number of pinned programs, a button to switch to All Programs list, big Shutdown button. I love Win7 (best OS), but Win10 did improve the Start Menu (infinite pinned programs, All Programs list always visible, only downgrade was the shutdown button not accessible via keyboard).

The round corners look like a cursed version of Win7.

I won't be updating to it. Might even "downgrade" to Win7, if too much support is dropped from my current Win10 v1709.

Trustable reviewers says that there is absolutely no difference between win 10 and 11. Infact in many cases 10 is better than 11 they say with benchmark reviews. So M$ is trying to create money in the name of windows 11. Hardly they moved start menu to middle and increased the clarity of explorer folders view. Default theme changed colors and sounds. Should we call it a major upgrade ?

TechPowerUp has an article about a benchmark shows that Windows 11 is ready for Intel and AMD's next gen Big.Little architecture, and the Windows 11 requires a newer PC to run, TPM 2.0 and whatnot, I doubt that MS will add such support for Windows 10, for these years new OS has dropped support for old PCs really quickly. Since 11 is still a free upgrade, MS will play the old tricks again on people who buy new PCs, they don't even have a choice but to install 11 because they can't get drivers to work on 10 (or 7)

Right now drivers are working on leaked windows 11. But not sure about future. Yes they drop support for old OS very quickly once they release new OS. Since win 10 got support up to 2025, i think they won't release final version of windows 11 till 2024 around. M$ is not having handful of work for their programmers so they keep pushing some useless upgrades like this.

Do you have any other sources that are not just YouTube videos?

I was replying to the claims about Windows 10 supposedly being faster than 11 and forgot to actually reply with a quote. Sorry if any confusion was raised.

When we can expect official ISO file of "windows 11" from official Microsoft site?

I was actually kind of excited to try 11 since it's a breath of fresh air after using 10 for so many years, but my old PC doesn't have TPM 2.0 so I'm locked out like millions of others will be. It's unfortunate because I'd love to run Android apps on my PC without having to emulate them. You can use Microsoft's PC Health Check app to see if your system has secure boot and is supported or not.

It's gonna be Windows 10.1 from the looks of it so far..

Try to read the new features of windows 11 in that page. M$ has nothing big to say about whats new with windows 11.
The features they are boasting for windows 11 already there in windows 10.
There is absolutely no need to buy or crave for 11 at all.


The minimum requirement for TPM 2.0 is a gimmick by M$ to benefit new PC / Laptop manufacturers.

Its like they added a new theme to windows 10 and trying to sell it for a price.

Update:

I tested win-11 on vmware. It allowed me to install classic shell and the app is running fine.
It also allowed h-w-idgen to run and register as 11 pro.
