Installing Win11 now...

The official nag icon (Windows 11 is ready!) has appeared in my taskbar.

Now I can’t upgrade. Out of principle.


Maybe I should backup win 10 first….:bleh:

Nah. You need to go all in like KAC. :bleh:

The jokes are too easy for that one. :lol:
 
You have me worried MS is going to start upgrading Win 10 machines without consent. I think they did that with Win 8 on Win 7 machines back in the day.

I swear if I wake up one of these mornings with Windows 11 I'll be pissed.

I would be extremely angry if they pulled that on me. I certainly hope they don’t go down that road again.
 
You can turn off automatic updates.

Also the reason my Intel doesn’t get a backup is because it only has games on it and 9/10 games have cloud backups. Plus it only does mining 90% of the time.

But yes, I like to joke as well. :lol:

Don't remember them doing that. I do remember people crying because Windows Update would download the upgrade files and have them ready, so that if you did decide to upgrade, it could skip the GB download and make the process faster.

I think it was actually with Windows 7/8 machines automatically upgrading to Windows 10. I know because it happened on my mother-in-law's laptop.

Turned out if you had the "Give me recommended updates" setting enabled under Windows update it would eventually download AND install Windows 10 automatically.
 
I see you have a similar motherboard to what I have.

Is it worth it to upgrade to Windows 11 at this time?

Microsoft said I'm ready:bleh: .

Only reason I did it was to get auto HDR. Otherwise I'd say wait since KAC says there are issues.

Besides auto-HDR, which is very cool, and DirectStorage, which developers have yet to incorporate into any games that I'm aware of, there are no "must-have" benefits to Win 11. If Win 10 is working well for you, then I'd stick with it.
