I haven’t appreciated or enjoyed a single thing about windows 11.
Not a single thing.
I’ve hated at least a dozen changes profusely, though.
I found 3: my Bluetooth headphones started working correctly (toggling between call and high quality mode automatically), the centered start menu is nicer and I even set it up on KDE plasma, and winget, though I have no idea if it exists on 10.
Not only that, they used it as a way to have offices upgrade to Windows 11 for the never specified reason of “cyber security” which is where most of their sales come from. The company I work for just had to replace 15 computers at the start of the year and now half of the older software we use doesn’t work anymore. Not only that but we were using Office 2019 with a perpetual license that they invalidated so now we have to get Microsoft 365
Same here, now we have to replace countless testing PCs because they don’t have TPM 2. In our case migrating the software wasn’t that difficult, but still a shame to throw out perfectly good hardware. And due to paranoid internal regulations, the PCs are to be fully shredded as well…
Yeah I asked my boss if I could take one home and turn it into a Linux machine for testing and he said the same thing. He even wanted photo evidence that they were destroyed.
Why not just destroy the drives? The mobo, cpu, ram, and PSU should be ok to reuse.
you overestimate the technical understanding of the person that made the “shred all decommissioned computers” rule
Also they are still releasing Windows 10 updates.
