Installing Win11 now...

[Riptide]

I'm having a problem with Windows 11 where it constantly tries to downgrade the AMD graphics driver every time I run Windows Update.

There seems to be no stopping it. I've gone into advanced system settings->system properties->hardware tab->device installation settings->no

Still continues with the same obnoxious behavior. I've basically paused updates now because of this and will have to manually deal with it every time the system eventually updates itself outside of the 5 weeks I have it delayed.

WTF

Run DDU and disable the automatic driver update

I'll give DDU a try though that seems ridiculous to be doing that on what amounts to a fresh OS install done barely a month ago now.

As far as turning off the automatic driver update isn't that the setting I already disabled?

At least for Win 10 yes that is the setting to block Win update from installing device drivers.

Maybe something is messed up with it on Win 11?

Good ol' AMD.

I'd blame MS for this before AMD.

Don’t know how wide spread this is but it is starting to surface.

Using the hide updates troubleshooting tool resolved the issue for me. No DDU necessary.

Windows 11 somehow messed up my HDR on my laptop, which I use mainly for Netflix. Going back to Windows 10 for now and wait a bit longer.

From my experience a clean install of win 11 is the way to go.

Does “reset this PC” count as a clean install these days?

Not really in my experience unless you reset with asking it to do a wipe down/format.

Nah, a fresh install on clean drive. Reset just resets everything to default afaik (and fixes conflicts in the process).

Ok thanks

WTF!
After being an early "insider", today get a unsupported hardware watermark.

Interesting. Are you still running the Insider build?

Also, does Win11 still suck ass like it did in November?

I'm running the Insider Beta build on my main system. Runs great.

I'm still a "limited insider", just the tip and only for a minute.
It is not clear to me what happened. I wonder why was my hardware okay but now it is not.

I've always liked Win11. Changed behavior of right click in Explorer was my biggest issue.

[edit] looks like TPM2 in the bios got disabled. Not sure how that happened. Full insider now enabled.

Any news on it officially supporting my processor ?

Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-6700K CPU @ 4.00GHz

(Just noticed sigs all gone)

No support yet, officially anyway. You can bypass the checks and install anyway if you want.

FYI though, I wish I had stayed with 10. 11 has it’s perks, but for a variety of reasons I just find it extremely annoying to use. No problems, it just isn’t as cohesive and user friendly as 10, in my humble opinion anyway.
