    I’m so glad my win 10 rig stopped working and my son fixed it with a Linux os. Hopefully I’ll never have to update windows again, only wine 🍷. Never going back if i can help it! Never even got to experience the pleasure of win 11 lol

    never install optional preview updates for windows.

    that’s what this one is. if you install what is essentially a beta update, expect the worst. that your computer will not boot back up. that your data went ‘poof’. that kind of ‘worst’. a lost wallpaper and goofed up cursor is nothing compared to what could happen.

      Several Windows 11 updates are great, actually. They corrupted the OS and made it unable to boot, which given it’s Windows, not booting makes the experience better.

    Skip today’s Windows 11 update: it breaks cursor styling, resets wallpaper, and more

    They have the wallpaper locked at work somehow. Thanks for the reminder I need to stylise my cursor again. Black with green border.

    At home, I’ve been Windows free for a few years now.

    Can’t skip the update if you don’t have any Windows installations.

    I have a duel boot setup and it’s been a year since I had to boot into Win11. Seriously concerned with what is going to happen when I have to use it.
