#windows11 #windows12 #upgradewindows11
Let me know in comments what you plan on doing.
My current PC is too old for Win 11, but I am fine with Win 10 for another 2 years. Glad win 11 is getting better. I am ok with going to 11 when 10 is out of support (I plan to get a new PC this year or early next year). Or I need or want something Win 11 provides that Win 10 doesn't. Thanks for the video, helped me figure out the Win10 vs 11 for my needs. Actually a pretty simple question after watching this video.
I haven't upgraded to Win 11 yet.
I'm waiting for Windows 13. It's bound to be lucky.. honestly using a 10 year old desktop on Win 11 is sweet. Don't have any issues at call..
Im starting to think that each new version of windows is just a new skin with moar telemetry integrated into the os in random files😆
am now upgrading to Windows 11 using the Answer File Generator on a video u made
I'm staying on WIndows 10 as long as possible
That is up to you.
I feel you. Windows 11 doesn't add anything substantively that makes me wish I've upgraded to it. The Settings App does have a lovely UI, compared to Windows 10, but that's not enough for me to upgrade to it.
Not to mention that dreadful stutter!!
me 2
I'm staying on my Dual Boot Windows 7 and Windows 10 !
I hope 12 fixes some of the UI shortcomings from 11 and the extra clicks needed to do most things. I’ll just stay in 10 for a couple years and see what options are available then, no rush.
Thanks for the good info my friend !
Very true about GUI Updates/ I remember when Workbench 3.0/3.1 became the final version of Workbench on the Amiga. When Magic User Interface became popular and later on NewIcons it felt like you were running a new computer.
Are there any laptops out which still have a detachable battery like the old Thinkpads? This integration can be a real annoyance on laptops and smartphones.
Windows 10 and 11 are pretty much pushing me over to Linux.
I'm about done with entirely wiping an OS I've spent years to tweak out, only to have to start all over again installing all those drivers, programs, and saved passwords. You can't do that in a production environment, you end up with 3 months of down time to build a whole new hardware system to run it and reinstall all that mess from square one.
Could u do a video on either upgrading 10 to 11 within windows 10 or do a straight fresh install to windows 11 . 😮 love the videos keep em coming
Great video and information Brian. I have 2 laptops with Windows 10 home. Can I get an Enterprise key and upgrade the system to that version to get the extended support until 2032?
I've got a new machine and I'm watching your videos to learn how to tweak to the PC to the best possible performance... as for the old machine, I now have a cadaver that I can breath different life into it with other operating systems and I have an entire library of your knowledge to call upon.
if they move to a subscription based model. I'm switching to Zorin OS
Great video👍
Thanks 👍
Wow, I didn't even know Windows 12 was coming even! What good things can I expect?
Also, I use an Asus X515 which isn't bad, but is kind of slow running games. What can you recommend I do? Also, nice video! You should also make shorts! They would be a hit 👍
I will try
@@dreaper5813 Its actually a shared laptop, not 100% mine unfortunately
Thinking of your previous video about the Start Button/Copilot in W12, I'd stay with W10 for now. After all, W11 is only W10 with an amended GUI. Subscriptions and hardware requirements will also need to be factored in.
In MHO if your system is working for you now - Leave well alone. However a valid tip is when your system is first installed as a clean system - Make a backup - Restore this backup when your system slows. restore from the backup. MS give every appearance of moving towards a cloud based subscription business model.
Staying on Windows 10 the next few years on my current computers. One has a multiboot with Linux. Works fine, will run Linux on the old machines in the future. And probably one new machine with Windows 12.
Well Brian I use the Open Shell software to customise for my own personal choice is a Windows 7 look. Now with the different OS's they (Microsoft) put out what does it matter whether or not you have to add restrictions to running the latest from them? Because as I have mentioned before I have my own build Ivy Bridge with the stuff I made the machine and it works really well so what is it with hardware?? Now what happens if one uses Windows 12 when it comes out will they cut shirt the support for Windows 11?? Frankly I cannot see how can they justify putting out new version/s of Windows when the current one is working so well once one gets used to it like myself?? Another query is if they force individuals to use certain hardware/s and make it a subscription form of paying for the OS will the interminable ads be cut out of the system??
There arent alot of differences between 11 and 10 to switch if you got alot of data which you beter backup before upgrading. Also for me there are too many click to have things done and i prefer not to use the registry if i dont need to. Out of the box Windows 10 is good enough and when the end is near of w10 then i switch and i believe alot of people think like that.
I have grown fond of Linux but I always seem to have a few windows only programs. A subscription model for Windows is going to be a deal breaker for me. If that happens, I'm going to have to figure out how I could deal with it to keep reoccurring costs down.
Have you tried running your Windows apps in Linux using Wine or Bottles? Many run perfectly well in that environment.
@@PeterHonig. I've tried wine. I haven't been able to get my specialized programs to run. I'll have to look into bottles.
@@jimzielinski946 Most people seem to have better success with Bottles, so I urge you to give it a try. The advantage of Bottles over Wine is the ability to individually customize the parameters for each application.
If windows becomes a sub based OS, that is the final line they will be crossing because I should not be paying extra for what I've already paid, will most likely be jumping to Linux if that happens.
Britec hope you read this. I got a new HP AIO 27in last year and it runs Windows 11 Home (legit). I know I can go in to settings under system / recovery I can reset the PC to factory with or with my personal files. I found in the start menu windows icon / all apps / scroll down to W and it is listed something called Windows Tools and when I click there is a recovery drive icon when I click on says I need a 16GB USB drive. Does this make a factory copy of my hard drive? HP doesn't have any tools on this AIO to make installation media. I am not planing to wipe the PC. Reset PC option works great I used it a couple times. I am thinking if the SSD fails and I can't use it and if I need to replace what would this USB do for me?
Like many others. Planning to stay on Windows 10 as long as possible.
I installed and gave Windows 11 a go on my 13900k rig. It’s noticeably a little slower, and you have to click more to access basic things when compared to Windows 10 making it feel cumbersome.
Windows 10 doesn't recognize all cores from gen 12th
@@QuanNguyen-fb1rdNot a problem if you have amd lol
Exactly.
Hi. I 've reverted rwice because of the Windows Explorer 2-stage screen. Have you a video to show how to mke Explorer like the Windows one please? The new feature is marvellous, thank you for explaining this. Regards JB
I think at the very least wait until 23h2 comes out before moving that way it can be a clean install the the latest version.
Im still not sure and 10 does the job so ill bide my time, maybe wait until i need to upgrade and do it then as well.
on windows 11 already and loving it....! probably dual boot to windows 12 to test it out if its free then make my decission then, thanks for uploading great video. 🤪
Thanks for sharing
great video Brian, yeah i migrated to windows 11 and i am used to it and it works great .I have Win11 Pro retail from your code BRO9. I do not do anything on Windows but use Steam. I have a 2nd NVME with Linux where i feel more secure. I do my browsing and email and other day to day stuff on there where i dont want Microsoft snooping into, they can see my Steam history, i dont care
@@dreaper5813 oh i can and i do. I have some games on Linux through either Lutris or Steam but its just easier and a little more seamless on Windows for gaming in general ,, I find that anyways. Some games just do not work . Id rather not piss around so i game on Windows and essentially everything else on Linux.
@@dreaper5813 really? wow troll much pal? No need to get insulting, get a life dude. Im lazy and need to get with the times? ooookay .
@@dreaper5813 you are also proving my point that you are a narcissistic troll.
@@twistfire74 Yeah.. I was thinking the lazy comment was uncalled for.
Roblox also has anticheat
I like file explorer in Win 11, but they usually change the things that I like, lol
I’m fairly Windows 11 23H is available in the US now. I just received an update notice.
It's in the canary version of the build. So you can get it now if you want to take that risk, that's why they call it canary. I am on that version myself and I think it is the start of windows 12 but that's just my opinion.
Windows 10 was supposed to be the final version. We know how that worked out.
I wonder how this will effect enterprise, will force many organizations to upgrade hardware
You can change the start menu free in Windows 11 with Explorer Patcher, and get old features back you where used to have in Windows 10. My computers are old. I think if they still can run I will go to a Linux version or maybe Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019. I'm not going to cheat to get Windows 11 or 12 on my primary pc. I have a test pc to play with, and that will continue 🙂
So were there any leaks or rumours about Windows 12 being a thing? I have not seen any news about that and i don't think we will from Microsoft anytime soon. I think we will be stuck with Windows 11 for a very long time. So far i'm on Windows 10 LTSC 2021 and i hope i get my hands on Windows 11 LTSC when its out sometime next year.
They should be called Money Systems instead of Operating System.
Does Window 11 run Doom and Doom Eternal? My Windows 10 will not since the last two updates. Won't run Dead Space 3 either. Frustrating, because it used to!
I successfully installed Windows 11 in a barely non-compliant system. Worked great until a month and a half up automatic updates screwed it up. Reinstalled to kill the updates and it works fine again.
Windows 12. I'm not upgrading anything until I am forced to. People forget all it is --- is an operating system to run your apps. That's it. Awesome video!
Thanks
Exactly and that's why I still use Windows 7.
@@dreaper5813 Said the guy who doesn't even use it or have a clue.
@@FlyboyHelosim Me too. Some of my software will have end of life soon. I will make the jump to Windows 10 when I have to. Not sure about Linux?
@@FlyboyHelosim Ohh I LOVE WIndows 7! Any problems doing that? WHat do you use for malware?
Remember when Windows 10 was going to be the last Windows🤔
Yes but Windows 10 were so old Microsoft couldn’t modify Windows 10 more because it was already developed
getting a bit pissed with M$. I might stay on win10 till its unusable. And move to full linux.
Hell, I am holding on to my windows 7, which I only use offline. If inevitable, I might upgrade to windows 10.
For the rest of the 98% of my work and life, I use Linux Mint 21.
I think most of Windows 11 hate is based on that most people thought Windows 10 would be a rolling release and that was it even if it wasn't confirmed officially by Microsoft. I understand Microsoft not supporting old hardware but their hardware requirements pretty much ensured you would have to buy a new computer. I am the exception because my computer is pretty old and does everything I need it to do. I think Linux is more viable for a lot of people than you might think. It all comes down to what software do you need. I agree there is a lot of hate for Microsoft but some of it is warranted. I understand we can't escape telemetry and being spied on but Microsoft essentially knows what you are doing on your computer at all times. Also they re install stuff you deleted when your computer gets updated. If AI gets included in Windows 12 more people may be hesitant.
I'll be putting it off as long as possible.
Most people seem to be staying with 10 regardless of whether their system supports 11 or not. I can understand MS not wanted to support old hardware, that's fair enough. But their system requirements are all over the shop. Some newer systems running 16 core i7's aren't compatible, yet a 10yo celeron is? Even a Gen 2 i7 runs Windows 10 fine ATM. Worse comes to worse, my older machines will just get a Linux distro. MS can blow me.
Windows 10 will likely be my last Windows OS, after I upgrade from Windows 7 because it is superior in many ways to Windows 10. My experience with Windows 11 has shown it's frustrating to use compared with 10 and I don't see Windows 12 being any better. At this time I am running a Linux system in parallel with my Windows system to evaluate the possibility of migrating totally to Linux for all my computing needs, including gaming.
not worth it if gaming
Gaming is a headache in Linux. Some games like Destiny 2, Rogue Company, Fortnite, Overwatch, and other main games don't work at all or out the box. Some of the games that used to work, stopped working in Linux due to Easy Anti-Cheat breaking games. If you are daring and can deal with lots of workarounds to get games working and knowing that some won't be working at all - go ahead. Arch Linux distros will be your best bet as they have fixes for the EAC problem. Just don't use vanilla Arch, as you will have to do a lot of manual configurations, installs, etc. Find a User friendly Arch distro that does most of the config stuff for you. Nobara OS is good for gaming on linux. Besides gaming headaches, Linux is great for everything else.
I'm moving to Linux
Just give Microsoft your money and buy a new computer that's most compatible with Win11 or Win12
I would love to upgrade to 11 but it still says my HW is not compatible. What if i am not in a position to buy better HW until 2025? I would have no other option than using my unsecured win10 or is there any other option?
Short answer. Stay on Windows 10 until they FIX THEIR GODDAMN SHIT.
If most things are subscription based on qindows 12. Im not going for it. Ill just use linux for everything and i feel a lot more people will make the move if they have to start paying monthly to use an OS
I'm waiting for 12, for one reason.... seems like every other windows update sux or doesn't last long, been noticing this since ME, all the 8's and Vista.
You have an error in the title, it should say "Should you DOWNgrade to windows 11"
High Brian is there a problem with your sponsors can't get past capture, it keeps freezing me out
passed the capture? maybe email them.
I'm on 8.1 and steam is saying that it will stop working at the end of the year. Not sure if I'm going to update the machine I'm on now or just buy a new machine. I've had this thing for about 10 years so maybe a new PC is on the list. Just want one that has better specs than mine. I have 3.1ghz CPU and 8GB ram.
Thanks for the video. I use Windows 11 Pro and I like it. I also have a machine with Windows 10 Pro. I also run Linux and love it.
same boat lol
Win11 stability is a misnomer.
Many ham radio guys who I've met on Ham radio YT channels who were early adopters of Win11 deeply regret upgrading from W10 as their W11 systems keep crashing, yet those hams who stuck with W10 have no issues.
One of the sticking points is how Win11 doesn't seem to play well with the USB to RS232 dongles employing Prolific chipset drivers & this is a huge issue as many ham radio handhelds ie Baofeng, Anytone, Yaesu, Icom use serial connections via programming cables & many ham radio apps ie Anytone 878 CPS software is windows only & doesn't play well with Wine under linux.
Some rigs are moving to bluetooth but many rigs still use the Baofeng 2 plug connection standard
facts ^ truth.
Though would windows 12 have system requirements as well?
It wouldn't surprise me to see Microsoft make 12 upgrade-able (my reason is weak, but here it is) On my bench is a 2008 Toshiba laptop, I plugged in a Win11 USB stick and we were up and running. BTW, I'm upgrading the machine, not a clean install. Upgrading from Windows 7 Straight to 11.
Upgraded since day one and never looked back. Win 11 is fine, no issues at all and I like the new GUI.
How about hardware , need to upgrades ?
I moved back to win 10 not more bugs, I planned wait another two years for Windows 11 to fixed the major UI changed very buggy now on the recent update. It is a mess.
So if features I don’t like, for example the awful start menu. You can get software to make windows 11 look like windows 10. What is the point of an upgrade. I don’t mind change, but change for change sake is pointless. One of the biggest annoyances of windows 11 is the amount of mouse clicks to get to something that was one on windows 10.
I think any move to a subscription model will definitely make me ditch Windows. All these subs at £? per month soon add up to something horrendous. Until then I'll use whatever OS suits my purpose at the time.
My system has intel 8th gen cpu so I will wait and see what shakes out with WIN 12
I tried win11 a month ago on a system I built and it's still junk and buggy as all heck, even with the latest manufacturer drivers and turning off win11's changing drivers to the windows ones (which is a source of issues).
I have had to downgrade quite a few customer's systems, mainly laptops, to win10 because of how buggy win11 is.
I'll be on windows 10 until I can't anymore. People I know are still on windows 7
windows 11 is not more buggy than Windows 10 because Win 11 has the same code as Win 10 what machine are you having problems with, I would like to help you solve your pc problems but I'm not sure about adding links on his forum or I would
I have been running Win 11 starting 3 months after its release with no problems at all on an i3-8100 machine on a 24/7 pc off the internet when I keep my pc on to wake me up! works like a charm and never fails me and when I'm sleeping my system is working to backup my data
@@Fletch8714 Thats your experience not his. It is buggy and slow for many people including me compare to Windows 10.
Hi, i'm not really in to computers, but i've learned that windows 11doesn't allow to use Google or Firefox or any browsers than egde or Bing, is there any way around that? i've got services on the Google browser that i like to be keeping- Greetings from >Tor
You're doing something wrong or there is something seriously wrong with your PC. Because YES YOU CAN use Chrome and Firefox with Windows 11.
@@DeadPixel1105 I'm not doing anything wrong, and my pc is running perfect, but it running with windows 10, not windows 11, but i've read/heard that windows won't let users use other browsers than edge or bing, that's why i haven't upgrade yet.
I have read enough things about windows 11 to know I don't want it. I tried Linux and got it to work but the peripheral support for things like
wireless trackballs , printers and hi res screens suck. They do have some drivers but there rudimentary. I used Chris Titus script to speed win 10 up and strip out the bloat. Even though I have a PC capable and the upgrade is free as Chris Titus said the only need to update to 11 is
because the splash screen looks better. All the commands things like the control panel are messed with.
I get more and more apprehensive about windows these days as it keeps pestering me about moving to win 11 meanwhile automatically installs Bing on my Chrome browser and loads in endless McAfee pop ups that you cannot click out of.
windows 10 not receiving any further updates, Yah a great reason to stay on windows 10. more stable
Bought a Windows 11 laptop several years ago and want to get a more powerful PC for gaming. Going to wait until Windows 12 to do it.
Windows 11 only forces people to upgrade hardware because it's less for them to do and test and support, Windows 10 overall is better on hardware support of all kinds Where as windows 11 is great now but it seems to adapt on how much system ram you have, To max the best performance having 32gb of ram is really necessary as friend has said it can use alot of ram for background programs and resources, But games performance is good on the newest hardware 13900k and 4090 gtx, DDR 5 etc, Not all of are rich, I've recently upgraded to 5700x 8 core and 16gb ddr4 3200mhz ram, Not sure how windows 11 will run with it over windows 10, But least i have the option as it is supported, Win11 supports more cores better as it makes more use of them so iam told also for applications in the background processes area and games.
True but Most people don't know how to change 1 setting in the bois to make it work, I have 7 storage Drives 28 gigs of ram running win 11 all drives running in the TB Range
@@Fletch8714 What setting its that ? May i ask, I've only done windows 11 though rufus.
I guess System requirements for Windows 12 may be more strict compared to Windows 11.
Possible
More bloated....So yeah, you will need to buy a new pc to run the bloat so it doesnt grind the system to a halt
I hope so for security reasons, but I don't think there will be any changes, I'm better for security than anyone that uses the internet with an old outdated machine is asking for trouble in my option, my system is a custom-built machine by me within 4 years ago and will last me for another 4 years at least
@@Fletch8714 Well its not as straightforward as that. Some people just go onto the internet to visit commonly visited safe sites and not visit any shady sites. But yeah for most people who dont understand network security upgrading to the latest version of Windows is highly recommended infact I would recommend it aswell. However there are specific scenarios where people who know what they are doing dont need that added layers of protection and an older version of Windows say windows 7 would still be usable but they would need to have a 3rd party firewall installed which is set to prompts mode which can annoying but is the most secure option. As long as you have manual control of your firewall, install an up to date adblocker such as ublock origin or the other popular ones and dont visit shady sites or install suspicious 3rd part or pirated apps then you are just as secure as anyone with the latest OS. Having said all this I dont think anyone should visit any dodgy site to begin with that includes those free streaming and free download sites aswell nor should anyone use pirated software or apps that arent run through virustotal first. Edit: its alot of extra work involved to run all the 3rd party apps you like through virustotal but I personally have done it and its worth the effor because it adds that extra layer of security in doing so. I have windows 10 with a 3rd party firewall and my browsers update in the background and I have adblockers installed along with mining blocks as well as other encryption runnning on my browser. Its a bit of work to set up but trust me its all worth it in the end.
"Muh bloat" @@chronosmagasaurus2813
I will avoid 11 and 12 as much as possible
good luck
First, Microsoft has not confirmed Windows 12 yet and there are rumors that Windows 12 may have more stricter hardware requirements than Windows 11

How upgrade Windows 🪟 11 21H2 to 22H2, in unsupported PC 🖥???
I'm waiting for the Windows 11 23H2 to be released, till now by doing all my test Win 10 pro are superior.
windows xp and windows 11 were released the same day 20 years apart
If you're on Windows 10 you might as well wait for 12. Windows 11 was absolutely fine until microsoft released build 22H2. Now the UI is sluggish and MS haven't supplied a in over a year.
Wouldn't it be funny if they nixed the system requirements and you were able to go from Windows 10 to Windows 12 ?
Only thing that stops me from upgrading to windows 11 is game stutter. Everything else about windows 11 is great. But for some reason some of my games will stutter on windows 11 but run great in windows 10.
Ways around 11 restriction, I'm running 11 on a i7 2600 16gb ddr3 dell 990
remember when 10 was the final edition
Windows 10 LTSC all the way
If Microsoft is planning on a Windows 12, it is rumored that Windows 12 will have more AI tech built in which means Windows 12 would have higher system requirements than Windows 11. I want to reinforce that this is just rumors at this time.
Already made my decision: Linux on all of my computers - no Windows at all in my house. Couldn't be any happier. Been 19 months now.
Windows 10, what was SUPPOSED to be the last Windows. Isn't the thing with Windows, every EVEN number is a good one, and all the odds are bad 🤣 I'm perfectly happy on 10, and have no desire to go to 11.
No, because Windows 7 was the best and that's an odd number.
8.1 was better because it is EVEN number
Remember Windows 12 has not been officially announced. I will wait at least 1 year for the bugs to get fixed. If Microsoft does announce and release Windows 12, according to history it will be a much better one that Windows 11, since it should be a better OS.
Can't WAIT! Just spent some money(USD26) to a tech shop to upgrade my DELL 【e5570 i7 6600u】with TPM 1.2 to Win 11 Pro, Ver 22H2, OS 22621.2070 on 30 Jul 2023.
It looked simple, the guy took out an USB stick, format my M.2 SSD, installed win 11, did some modifications to the system here and there, boot / restart / update 。。。。。。
So far so good after new installation !! 3 Aug 2023 。。。。。。。👍👍👍👍👍👍
i'm using Windows 11, but you'd never be able to tell it isn't XP
Still using Windows 7, still waiting for windows 14
The way microshaft is going, and windows in general ... switch to Linux and dream of a more user friendly experience coming to it ...
10:45 "now some people are saying that windows 10 is better than windows 11, I don't think that's the case. I think a lot of that is just the people getting on the internet and doing a bit of hate on windows 11" ....interesting take, meanwhile did you ever consider many of us have used windows 11 and know that it is a terrible product. Sounds like you are on the marketing team.
I've also heard that you have to be permanently connected to access your own local files.
Subscription based,
Looks I'll going back to playstation for games 😒
Staying on Windows 10 until the next good and stable OS which I think it will be Windows 12.
curious question are you removing bloatware while doing this video? lol
what happens if you use win 10 without up dates ..? you wouldn't recommend it but why exactly ..?
It's pretty the same, just use and aditional AV along with Defender and you'll be fine.
There's no need to do it. Only upgrade if your PC gets corrupted. 10 and 11 are pretty much the same.
Install a good antivirus and continue with win 10 after it expires
This is one of the best options for unsupported hardware
i stick to 10 until my rig gets 2old, but maybe by then i drop gaming to, i think i get 2old for it with 10years, for 1 i am sick of them making new OS versions all the time, i would have preferred they stopped at win7, second sys requirement's for win11 are insane (my rig meets the requirement's though), as a gamer i want OS to be as light on resources as possible and from that preceptive the requirement's are insane and outrageous so hell no, no win11 and no win12, unless they got back to basics and went back to win10 sys requirement's
When Microsoft makes a new version of Windows, they built based on the older version of Windows as they reuse they code. They are NOT creating a new Windows from scratch
i have upgraded to windows 11 thats my biggest mistake after few hours of installation windows security apps doesn't work . i watched so many videos on the internet but nothing happend so now i came back to windows 10.
Do fresh install, better
I lost Windows 7 I am completely refusing to upgrade to Windows 11 or 12 I am pausing until services run out for Steam but it looks like they're up to date Microsoft is not looking so great with these newer Operating Systems I miss my Windows 7.
Here is what I'm gonna do, Ill stick with windows 10 until its end of life, and if a windows 12 is released Ill wait for other people to have used it and review it and determine if its good enough to switch to, and if not, I will use windows 11 until windows 12 either becomes good enough to use or if a windows 13 or something were to release at some point.
I'm disappointed in the larger footprint of Windows 11. A 256GB drive is not big enough for someone needing a lot of space on their drive to work, because the OS takes up almost half of the drive.
I suspect win 11 machines will be declared incompatible with win 12...and so further e waste....MS in quid pro quo with computer manufacturers....
If Microsoft offered a switch in Windows 12 to turn off, delete and avoid ALL telemetry, people would buy it by the millions.
