That's why you tell them that they haven't released a remote client that works with Windows 11 yet, easy peasy.

I would love to do that but they would be absolutely furious with me when they discovered my co-worker could remote in just fine. :-)

Just started getting the "your system will run better on Win11" sorts of messages. Anybody taken the leap? If so, was it worth it? Win10 has been SOLID on all my devices so I'm stuck between "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" and "it'll make things better"... Ugh!
[Reply]

You answered your own question.

"if it ain't broke, don't fix it"

We're a ways out before W10 is no longer supported.

I have a new Surface that came with Windows 11 and it seems..., fine.

Honestly haven't really noticed that much better or worse. Although my main desktop is certainly capable of running Windows 11, haven't seen a big reason to switch from 10 to 11 on it.
[Reply]

Right on. My Surface was the first Win10 device to ask if I wanted Win11.


I'll wait...

It's fine. Runs just the same as Win10. The original start menu was clunky, but with the latest updates I'm fine with it. Performance is the same. The windows grouping options are pretty nice. It's a very solid OS. All my games run fine.

I am getting--this device will not support win 11.

I am due for a new laptop anyway. My wife has not upgraded hers yet.

My work desktop gets the same message. I'm almost certain it's because you don't have a TPM chip. The requirements for Win11 are actually quiet miniscule all things considered.

They (the industry) wants us to buy new PCs.

You can buy a TPM card for many motherboards for $15-50 or so.

You can also install Windows 11 on machines without TPM with a simple registry edit. Even though it's probably not a good idea. Here's how: https://www.techradar.com/how-to/how...y-you-shouldnt

I think you wiill need a MS account for WIN 11. That sux.
[Reply]

You need at least a junk email with a junk MS account. But once you activate it, you can still create/use a 'local' account on your device that is not tied to an email.

But yea, annoying.

No, you can still create an offline account. When you get to the part during setup where it says "Let's add your Microsoft Account," just click on Sign-in Options and select Offline Account.



EDIT: So, apparently the above method does not work with the Win11 Home version. Apologies, I never use the Home version. Supposedly there is a method to still create an offline account with the Win11 Home version by doing a sneaky disconnect of the internet during setup. But if you want seamless install of an offline account, don't get the Home version.
