Windows 11??

I would not Download this and use it on anything. There is no telling what comes with it.

I installed from ISO an esteemed W10F member sent me. Installed first in a VMware player VM but same ISO wouldn't install in hardware (empty SSD) citing lack of TPM 2.0 which is false because MB has it, probably due to no driver for it.
Finally I installed Macrium Reflect, made a full disk backup and then restored it to empty SSD. After a short fight with BOOTing from it, it now works. Now I have it in the BOOT Menu and can run it with with two W10 and Mint.
Checked performance after installing proper drivers but it's lower on all tests than latest W10 and at par with W10 insider dev.

I think windows 10 is dead—no more new builds. IMO, Windows is focused on windows 11 now, going forward!

Managed to install W11 in VM and on bare metal, it's not activated but will wait for official MS release to use license from insider to activate. Even if they continue with Insider W10 I'd rather keep W10, it's more exciting anyway. Still have 4 more years of W10 support so no hurry.

I got a copy of Windows 11 and I was able to install it. The issue with TPM 2.0 by replacing a file in the source folder of the ISO.

So far it's working just fine. I like the new GUI.

So it's all a big underground secret that has to be done via PM on TF?

That or what our resident Bunny did, I didn't think of that. Anyway, as soon as it booted it downloaded and installed drivers. Kari did it via ViBoot but I have only MR and they don't like each other.

I got my copy from a reliable source and I did double check what was in the file, version. Then I just installed it. Why not? Worst case I have to reinstall Windows 10 and my apps again. I've done it and I'm all set to do it.

Silly,. possible but I wanted to see it live. My plan is to roll back to 10 in a week and use the MS versions from then on.

I know Windows 10 has 4 more years of support. My point Is - are we going to have any new builds of windows 1o, beta, RP or dev channel? I think what we will get is cleaning of the pipelines and that is about it, except for some bug fixes. Nothing exciting or new for our analysis and providing feedback.

Well, why not, it's still W10 deeper than skin deep, hailing directly from W8 with particles of W7, Vista, XP 95, 3.1 and DOS
