Look, Microsoftwe need to talk. It is no secret that you are served to upgrade me (and all the rest) Windows 11 For some time, to push me to the settings menu with everything from advertisements to OS reminder, to check if my PC is eligible for upgrade. But here is the matter, Microsoft: This path on which you are not durable.
I mean in some different ways. First, extremely literal meaning; Windows 11 A reliable platform module 2.0 emphasizes the requirement, which is a specific chip on the motherboard of your laptop or desktop for uninvited chip that enables increased safety features. No TPM 2.0? No Windows 11Yes, I know you can do technically Upgrade Windows 11 without TPM 2.0But I will not recommend it.
Is that enlarged security good? Yes, of course – but effectively it means that many older computers cannot literally run Windows 11, which combined with Windows 10 end of life adjacent Finally going to result in one Very Towards the growing e-waste of PC. This is a real problem in itself. But I am not here to bounce about e-waste (although) it’s really badI want to talk about how users see Microsoft’s NHIGH -OMNIPRESENT Operating systemAnd how its current trajectory can lead to serious issues.
Chop and change
See, Windows is continuously developing-from humble beginnings as an MS-dos interface in the mid-eighties to cute repetitions such as Windows XP and 10 (and widely grated versions, such as Vista and RT). But in the last few years, whispering for a long time A ‘last’ version of OSIf you are designed to be designed forever with frequent updates, a ‘Windows Perfect’ – or at least, designed to live very long.
In a sense, people hunting for this ‘final’ Windows Ition want the same experience that McOS users get: an operating system that receives free updates to continuously add new features, rarely changes in a significant way, and is not full of annoying advertisements. Of course, it is not quite simple for microsoft; Apple The Macos Hardware is incredibly tight control over the ecosystem, while the microsoft is to run Windows on the theoretically custom and pre-made PCs as well as many different manufacturers to run Windows on a near-limitless selection of laptops. Then, keeping the advertisement out of the windows should be as simple as it is for Macos, and it has not happened …
At the end of the day, does not microsoft need To create a fully new version of Windows – it does because outside an apple -esque closed ecosystem, it is beneficial, as system manufacturers will need to buy new OS key and users will need to buy new systems.
Certainly, now the major overhaul may be needed and then some people leave behind – TPM 2.0 defeat is probably an example. But there are cracks in this functioning that are slowly starting to show, and I suspect it will not end until the Microsoft course changes.
Time for some defensestation?
If upgrading to a new OS is a lot of trouble for a person (I have been personally closing it for years, still using Windows 10 On my personal desktop), imagine how much work – and how much money – it takes it to a big business. Although Windows 11 adoption is finally increasingDespite the insistence of Microsoft to upgrade Microsoft, private businesses and public sector organizations are still Win10 or older.
A 2021 Report by kaspersky It was suggested that 73% of the healthcare providers globally are still using equipment with an old OS for medical purposes. Now, it is not only talking about Windows Computer, but it is a harmful figure – another recent Testing It was claimed that 80% of imaging devices are still using the operating system which were officially EOLDs and are now unable to like Windows 7 and XP.
Healthcare is only an area, but it is widely felt, especially in areas and countries where funding for hardware and software upgrades is often not easily available. Running an out-of-support OS can cause a variety of issues, not with the least security and compatibility. It is not that this organization Not needed To upgrade, it is that they Can’t really do – Not without significant expenses to completely replace the computer, and sometimes the entire machine is tilted.
Annoying advertisement
Finally – and I am going to be a little honest with you here, Microsoft – Windows’s slow but incompetent encyclopes have been found. Advertisement, bug, pasting notification, constant force of Copilot AI under our throat; Just stop it, friends. Please!
I have Windows 11 on my laptop, and at the same time Ellie I used PC gaming in hand. I am not a stranger how bad it has become. My dislike towards Apple Hardware is well documentedNevertheless, MACOS’s year-on-year stability and total shortage of advertisements looks powerful attractive.
Win11 feels less like a product that you buy and you yourself more like ‘an OS’ as a service – something that you pay, but not really do not really do, and can be modified far or heavy in a moment notice. This is already a serious issue in the sports industry, Triple-A Games is rapidly decreasing about providing a good, fun experience and extracting greater value from the player.
Even Windows 10 is not safe from the medaling of Microsoft. At this point, I am looking at half the EOL purely so that Microsoft takes out your small fingers from your desktop OS. No, i don’t care How great Windows 11 is consideredNo, i don’t care Co -pilot And how it is going to cure my digital life and curing all my worldly diseases.
Let me make a little bit of analogy here. Imagine if you bought a car. It is a good car, it runs well and does not give you any major problem. Then, a few years later, a new model appears, and every morning, no matter where you park, the dealership sends someone to your windshield to send a flyer to a new car advertisement, or some other new proposals are running dealerships. Every now and then, they also extract a small portion of your car, such as a wiper blade or a tire nut. Kicker? You do not want a new car, and you cannot tolerate it anyway.
I just want an direct OS that runs smoothly and is not old every five years. Is it really too much Microsoft?
