Windows 11 is built on Windows 10 with a new skin. Microsoft said the optimized Windows 11 to play games better, but if you compare Windows 10 and 11, there isn't a major difference in speed
Microsoft just wanted to make Windows look prettier to compete with the stylish look of MacOS. Personally I don't like it at all. I find a variety of things annoying about it. I will continue using Windows 10 until 2025 when Microsoft discontinues security updates.
@@rtlau-mk4di In WIndows 8, Microsoft removed the aero glass and transparent taskbar going to a flat look as other OS's were doing. WIndows 10 and Microsoft Office became uglier with flat ugly icons
Finally someone is agreeing with me oh and I use Windows 10 frequently and loving it because of the fact that its successor was built on a unreleased derivative of Windows 10 which is the 10X
i bought a hp spectre last year, and upgraded to windows 11 within a week of owning it. It was a cool ui fresh and theme changes, but the animations make the operating system lag more. Also, windows 10 runs more stably and has less bugs and windows 11 is basically windows 10, just with a theme applied to it
Thank you for the facts. In my case, I made a "quantum" leap from Windows XP Professional to Windows 10 Pro, because I needed a new computer urgently. I enjoyed watching your show and now it has been saved.
@@EasyPcRepairs You are welcome! You are the smartest man in your legend. I made the quantum leap from Microsoft Windows XP Professional to finally Microsoft Windows 10 Pro is because, my first microcomputer that was Cybernet, a Windows-based computer that was made in California, as a discontinued model, it ended up with a dead motherboard. I call my computer my "keyboard," because it is my powerful typewriter. The modern-day typewriting which is called "keyboarding" is my best skill. I learned typewriting when I was 12 years old. In 2017, I needed a keyboard so bad that I could hardly wait for one. Therefore, I purchased a Dell Inspiron keyboard, which is an all-in-one style microcomputer like the Cybernet model. The difference is that the Cybernet ZPC-9000pc had the computer inside the console that had all the keys. The monitor was separate from the rest of the computer itself. The Dell Inspiron has the computer inside the monitor. Gentlemen like you brings hope to computer users, including keyboard specialists like me. Thank you so much for tapping or typing to me. I bid you "Happy Keyboarding!"
My big annoyance with Windows 11 is being FORCED to log on with a Microsoft account, unless you want to start hacking and tweaking. Fortunately my older PC (originally shipped with Windows 7) has no TPM 2.0, so MS aren't going to force it to upgrade in the background without my say-so.
Sir, this video really helped me! I just got a refurbished HP Desktop from 2016 that has Windows 10 already installed. I just started learning about it cause I came from Windows 7. BTW, you gotta new Subscriber!!
Windows 10 should be supported until 12 is released. I think I'll skip 11 unless 12 is awful, if 11 is still supported and 12 is a mess, I'll give 11 a go. That's the annoying thing with Windows, just as the OS matures the replace it with garbage. I only use my pc for gaming now, so I don't have much Windows interaction other than an initial sanitation.
I will go for Linux mint the day i am forced to "upgrade". I refuse to bow down to a company that supposedly are in kahoots with board and cpu manufacturers.
I prefer to stay with Windows 10 for now. I did the PC Health Check, and it said the computer can accept the upgrade to Windows 11. It also said the following: "Start with a fresh system. PCs running previous versions of Windows must do a full reset of the Windows 11 operating system for the feature to work." How do I create a fresh system, or do I buy a new computer with Windows 11 installed before the deadline of Oct. 14, 2025?
The only reason I would switch to Windows 11 is if I had an INTEL 12th gen and up CPU with performance & efficiency cores. Windows 11 has a more efficient scheduler for those cores. There is a good chance your printer and other peripherals will not have a Win11 driver and you will need to buy new hardware.
Everything you said is already in Windows 11, or improved, for majority of people unless your good at IT no one aren't going to say Windows 10 is "stable".
They continue to improve Windows 11 for stability and add new features that are helpful from time-to-time. Personally I think that it's worth upgrading to Windows 11.
My problem with switching is due to the fact that each passing year, Microsoft get more and more shady. I stuck with Windows 98 till XP. Then I stuck with XP till Windows 7. To be honest, I was happy with Win 7. I never use any of Windows built in features except maybe the calculator from time to time. I was forced to accept Windows 10 but over time I have to say that it's the best Windows OS they ever made (except that their compatibility mode for older software SUCKS!!!!!). I still never use it's features. I have my own software I use. I've tried Windows 11 at a friend's house and I really don't care for it. I can see where compatibility with much older software is out of the question and that's a big deal for me.
I can see why some people skip certain versions of Windows. 98 to XP to 7 to 10 sounds good to me. I have moved on to Windows 11, but I can understand why some are happy with Windows 10.
I was content with Microsoft Windows XP Professional in my first computer. Also, Microsoft Office XP Professional saw me through into a new life. Using Microsoft Windows XP Professional was so easy to use and manage, that even an infant can try it with mere success. Microsoft changes Windows more than Apple changes operating systems in a whole lifetime.
Windows 10 has search features - so does Windows 11, it has a dark mode , - so does Windows 11 (Personalization> Colors) and much more ?? Why can't you elaborate what much more is?
11 is like a skin for 10. Its based on the exact same kernel as Windows 10..........Which BTW is the only time Microsoft has ever released a predecessor to the previous version, with the same kernel. There are many good reasons to stick with Windows 10, but one reason to go with 11 is that it is (most likely) only going to get better and more effort will likely go into the development of 11 than will be put into 10, since we are told 10 will no longer be supported in 4 years. Personally I prefer 11, but I DO totally get why people prefer 10. One small thing I miss from 10 is the ability to click on the clock in the taskbar, to view a larger/easier to see clock with seconds ticking by.
Great comment! I'm sure you're correct - more features will be put into Windows 11 over time and less effort will be put into Windows 10 over the coming years.
um what about windows ME? that was based on the 9x kernel from memory I remember seeing all the debug tokens that were still in the code on the 1st release, and windows 7 was built on the Vista kernel.
@@DevilbyMoonlight We don't talk about Windows ME. it was such a dumpster fire most people skipped it in favor of Win2k. It never did make it to a useable state. it's the OS everyone really wants to forget... I guess the same is kind of true of Vista, but for very different reasons.
I'm still on Win8 and hearing a lot of people saying don't switch over, even though I won't get updates (but they haven't updated in over a year now so...)
Beyond these very relevant points I just don't like Windows 11. It is not appealing. But what is most alarming is that Microsoft don't understand why its not appealing..
Just got a new laptop with windows 11. So far no problems or gripes. Yea, I had to relearn a few things but that's to be expected going to a new version. Windows 11 seems to have better design and help on a lot of it's screens, I'm finding navigation is easy with most screens having very useful links. I'm a novice but I give windows 11 a thumbs up.
Windows and Google have a wonderful time rearranging things and altering the internet to their liking, but they really don't consider people in their later years. These people that alter the computer are in their twenties, not their seventies. Wait till you get to our age and see what it's like.
Thanks for the video. I use Windows 7 for development, Ubuntu for my server and a Chromebook for internet access. I didn't want to waste my time and my money dealing with the nightmare of a new PC and a new OS since I have experienced that since Windows 3.1, XP, NT, etc... According to all those MS minions - who probably know far less than me about "OSes" - Windows 7 stopped being "safe" after the new version appeared. So, I'm assuming Windows 11 will also be declared "unsafe" when the next version shows up. My PC will eventually die and I'll be switching to Linux for development and saying goodbye to greedy and annoying MS.
Very good speech to text?? Windows 11 has this as well . Why would you say it's not a reason to upgrade to Windows 11 ? It's not a reason not to upgrade because it comes with Windows 11.
I won't update, I don't want my computer to look like a smart phone, I like windows 10. Millions of people still use Windows 7, so not like anyone needs to even think about changing the OS just yet. But for me, the looks of the windows and start menu is a deal breaker, no need to worry about 11 for many years.
i am facing problem in windows 11 when i creat bootable pendrive with media creation tool it will restart with bliue scree even when i connect new harddrive creating to format it will restar with blue sreen . i did all update , i am using gigabyte 10th gen 16 gm ram wd ssd . even i spoke to microsoft call center but reset my pc but my problem did not slove . sir if you have any solotion please inform me thanks
It's a wonderful decision to make; if you try to look up a fault or problem online now re Windows 10, you get only happy people talking about their phones or Windows 11. We've been dropped. So our thousand dollar computers that don't matter anymore, just get tossed in the bin.
Personally I don’t get the hate for windows 11, both operating systems are nearly identical functionality wise and perform the same. The only real difference is the look and that’s just preference based
windows 11 has the smell of Microsoft BOB, WindowsME, Windows vista and windows 8 about it... so I reckon this has a good chance this will be a miss release as windows versions 95 98 2000 XP 7 & 10 were hits...
#9 You MUST have a Microsoft account to use Windows 11 Home. There is no longer a work around. 😡 #10 Windows 10 supports older hardware. Both 32-bit and 64-bit. Windows 11 only has 64-bit. R.I.P. 32-bit.
I like how we all ignore how terrible Windows 10 its, now that even worse windows its present, i have about 20 games to complete, then im permanently on linux
Watched this and then the reasons TO upgrade to Windows 11; very informative, to the point, and (as a bonus) relaxing to listen to, so all positives. With the two videos weighing the pros and cons in mind as well, I'm planning on getting Windows 11 for my new computer, with my reasoning/motivation being based on the fact that I once attempted to upgrade my OS from Windows 8 to Windows 10 in the distant past, and that wound up corrupting my hard drive. Especially with the end of Windows 10's support being somewhat near (three years from now might not seem like much time to some, but Windows 10 came out in 2015), I see no point in having to first buy a license key for Windows 10, THEN buy a license key for Windows 11, and then hope Windows 11 doesn't destroy my C drive like Windows 10 did back in ~2015/2016. Personal rambling over. Thanks for the great videos, Dave. Keep on making 'em. :)
To be honest, it would be probably much better for you, to buy Windows 10 license key, because if you're going to buy pc, that supports Windows 11 anyways, with having Windows 10 bought, you can upgrade anytime you want, but if you will buy Windows 11 license key, you won't be able to install Windows 10 for free.
@@rysiekku As I said, I don't want to do that because of something that happened to me before - it's a risk I don't feel is worth taking, no matter what anyone tells me. If I'm going to buy a Windows operating system, I see no point in buying an older version that's going to be discontinued in the near future, and _then_ upgrading to the most recent one. Why not just buy the one that I'm going to wind up using anyway, whether that's upgrading or just buying it?
Why the f*ck 'Recent' section in start menu is called "Recommended". What are you recommending me on my own freakin computer? This is very frustrating and hillarious at the same time.
You do not need a tpm 2.0 chip it works fine on PC from 2012 with a tpm 1.2 chip and you do not have a supported CPU no problem it still works fine. Watch Linus tech tips video on RU-vid. This is misinformation
There are workarounds for the requirement a TPM 2.0 chip and a supported CPU for Windows 11, but it is NOT recommended to do this. Not only that, not everyone can use the workarounds. It is unfair for you to say that this is misinformation. My information is correct.
@@EasyPcRepairs i am running windows 11 on 3 Gen Intel core i5 7 Gen Intel core i3 and 1 Gen Ryzen 3 with no problem Non of them is supposed CPUs for windows 11 And i have security updates Everyone do not have money to buy a new computer if they want run windows 11 ! I am It technical in Sweden Secure boot and UEFI is also required you said nothing about that
The requirement for secure boot and UEFI was shown in the video at 4 min 25 sec. And as I previously mentioned, workarounds can be done but it is not recommended. I will not tell anyone to do something that works now but could potentially cause them problems later on.
Went the same path bro, downgraded from W11 to W10. Everyhing was fine with the previous update, the 22h2 screwed things up for me, imma gonna stick with windows 10 until the fire is down.
