@@JamieKitchens6 only if you go out of your way to create a custom iso using a script… I have given up on windows. I left it years ago, but I have a windows vm in case I need word. The bloody user experience is horrible.
1:52 - Dreaming the day when they are going to finally make these pop up windows/confirmation dialogs/progress bars,etc match the new UI design and also make all context menus using the modern design like the right click on desktop...
@@vishthemarketer6691 so basically you have to get more software so you can fix microsoft's incompetence... Those features were standard not too long ago you know.
Here we are, closing in on 2 years since the initial announcement of windows 11 and it's still missing basic features like repositioning the taskbar (the whole taskbar to the top or side of the monitor), changing its size, disabling widgets (so the service and process doesn’t run, removing the icon does diddly squats), a consistent dark theme that doesn't blind you every other minute, older core applications still look like they're straight out of 2005, the ability to drag tabs to open a separate window, a task manager that doesn't run like rubbish and doesn't use 10% cpu when clicking on literally anything what so ever, search still can't be easily set to only search local files and here we are applauding them for adding icon ungrouping to the taskbar which was once the default behaviour. Windows Backup seems like another way for M$ to nag you to use an M$ account or onedrive, since you can't choose which cloud provider you'd like to use, there soon will be ads in your os without a way to remove them and soon you'll have the mother of all key-loggers and screen recorders pre-installed on your PC. Windows co-pilot. The biggest security and privacy problem Windows will ever face. Sounds delightful.
@Laxman Dhotre disabling widgets: some bullshit with Poweshell that’s made purposefully difficult, the drag to open should’ve been added day one, it’s a pathetic that it wasn’t. Everything else I stated still remains true and has been a problem since day 1
by repositioning do you mean putting it in different corners bc you can move it to the left or just keep it in the middle and when it comes to widgets you can just turn them off in the taskbar so you dont see it
@Laxman Dhotre removing the icon is not disabling anything. It’s like clicking delete on a desktop shortcut, it doesn’t uninstall the software. Check the services and processes the widgets are still running. There is an incredibly convoluted way to disable them, but normal users don’t to use the terminal right? That’s what windows users always say when people recommend Linux, so same goes for windows.
@@Moochi4 I mean move the whole task bar to the top or sides of the monitor. I am aware that you can move the icons to the left again. And once more, removing the icon on the taskbar doesn’t mean the service and process doesn’t run anymore. There is literally not easy way to do so.
@@vitorgabrielgomesrodrigues well heaving unneeded stress onto less capable systems for exaggerated flashy animations purely for show isn't really a great idea.
@@Casual_Luke I am unsure of exactly how much animations would effect performance, but Mac OS feels like an absolute butter smooth experience as opposed to Windows which feels a lot less so, and again, this is an iMac vs a i9 13900k, 4070ti we're talking about
lol Zac, the dev drive setup had a label stating it must be minimum 50GB. Nice to see never combine taskbar icons return. Now, only if Microsoft could also restore the option to change taskbar size/height.
Finally some noticeable improvements but HOLY HELL that web based widgets/tabloid panel is still a performance hog. Makes me miss the native UWP live tiles. Also how is the new backup app different from being signed in to a MS account?
Well it looks like they’re creating a reimagined backup tool in Windows I HONESTLY THINK THEY NEED TO SUPPORT LOCAL BACKUPS where you just plug in a hard drive FOR ON SITE RESTORES of your PC IF you WANT TO USE THE ☁️ good for you IF you WANT a backup where you plug in a hard drive backup your data and when you get a new PC OR UPGRADE your hard drive OR incur other hardware failures or malware or ransomware attacks you plug in your backup drive during the out of box experience and restore your PC or transfer your files to your new PC from the out of box experience screen
The reason why you can’t open the photo (that also applies to the standalone Gallery app) is that by default, when you press on a photo, it marks it for selection (if you want to move, delete or copy photos) and in order to open one, you need to right click on the photo and press Open. Such an unintuitive feature.
Good video and glad to see File Explorer getting TLC and app names coming back to the taskbar. However, watching the Dev Drive segment at 11:00 minutes was painful as I was screaming at the screen whilst staring at the minimum 50GB size message at the top of the pane...
This is why MS is getting more bloated and annoying. Everyone are had it with MS. Shame on you MS for forcing everyone to use it. Everyone should move Linux. Linux is becoming more popular thanks to Windows 11 failure.
That new gallery that pulls from your phone is gonna be very useful to me! I've stopped using phone link as it's always fighting me when I try to use it...
File Explorer is looking more like how it did with Windows 7. I like that. I didn't care for the ribbon UI and putting both the navigation buttons and address bar below it. I much preferred how Windows Vista and 7 did it.
Unfortunately no. The dev drive uses ReFS and you cannot change that. Microsoft says in their documentation that you can access dev drive files via `/mnt/d` in WSL, but it'll suffer from the same performance issues as any other mounted Windows drive.

@@goodwinhull2751 that's too bad :( thanks for the answer though! :)
I hate it when in dark mode..whenever u open anything it flashesh white first and then it turns into dark mode. Why can't they just implement native dark mode
I am currently using the Windows Insider Beta Preview because I am afraid the instabilities of earlier versions (such as Dev), can potentially harm my PC and drivers, since it did happen on my old laptop before. Therefore, I have two questions: Is the Dev Insider Channel too unstable or can it potentially damage my PC and drivers and in which Preview channel are these changes released?
Microsoft for the love of all that's pure and holy, stop creating adverts for OneDrive. I'm not going to call them features; I will call them as they are: adverts for "Please buy more storage / Office 365 so that you pay us more $$$$" - The explorer button for "Add Phone Photos" I expect to be a feature the OS does at the OS level. Not a "Yet Another Please Use OneDrive" redirect. - The backup solution SHOULD BE AGNOSTIC TO BACKUP STORAGE. I don't even see a solution for network based storage. Maybe I have a Storage Pool running on Windows Server. That's still your own technology. There is no reason to jail this to only OneDrive.
Any change to the right click behavior in explorer. For me the condensed menu is unhelpful way more often than not. I find myself pressing "show more options" nearly every time.
well other than one thing what i really like is that ai-creates little image on the right of full search bar and the translucent taskbar.... it was previously available on the stable version of win11. but now its showing a bing logo..... cant even get into insider program only have one system ....

@@joshuahernandez-th6ov I prefer Windows because i am much more used to that and have learned a lot about Windows. And i am a gamer too so another reason i prefer Windows.
The only (weird) issue I've had with win 11, it's when I click in "Open file location" on a shortcut, randomly the file explorer have no translucency, and no buttons to maximize, minimize, close... I have to do a left click on the taskbar to fix it.
cant sync custom folders in OneDrive, cant make classic control panel consistent with new UI design (it's a mess, some settings are still only accessible through classic control panel, some are in the new configuration menu, other somewhere in between lol), setting up file association is a pain in the neck, there are like 4 ways to create backups, none of them is actually useful... at the end I always end up using third-party software
Is it safe to upgrade from Win10 pro yet? I've been holding off for the dust to settle lol. From the looks of it, things have progressed nicely since I last looked.

What's the name of the visualization of the gallery mode where you get a mixed portrait landscape visualization mode for each row, but optimizing space?
@@techwithtyler20 they're not disabled, just hidden. Libraries are a key part of windows media player and other applications. It's surprising msoft is making use of them after no one really knew what to do with them in windows 7.
I still want the option to change the taskbar's location. Like in windows 10 where you could change the location from bottom to right or left or up. On windows 10 it was so useful but we still dont have it in windows 11
At this rate it’ll probably take another 2-3 years since they’re currently busy adding spyware to the os instead of fixing the functionality that should’ve been there day 1.
@@roccociccone597 That's one of the reasons I'm staying on Windows 10, this "widgets panel" is very useless addition and it feels like they want to copy iOS or Android interface here, which sucks for professional users that want no distractions from the OS.
No. I think that had to be removed due to the tablet features. Windows 12, if that mockup is to be believed, will put the system tray on top so even if moving the taskbar comes back, it would just be to the bottom and sides like on macOS.
4:40 that horizontal scroll bar there .. con: after 20+ years they still arent able to dynamically resize or hide columns so that it doesnt appear ... pro: dark mode now doesnt look like shit now conclusion: now that I stopped using Windows they finally adress the very ugly centuries old file explorer.
