I have a home laptop which had a just purchased new install of windows 10 on it until I was pretty much forced to upgrade to win 11. I am very disgruntled now, as my HDMI port (To my big screen TV) began to fail soon after the upgrade (Dell 1640 XPS laptop.. Do not buy). Soon thereafter my TV began restarting a lot as well because the screen brightness kept varying wildly and the audio now has pops in it whenever I stream video and multi-task on both screens.
Other MAJOR frustrations is that the screen background cannot be matched when extending the display, the calendar does not show when I click the time/date displayed o the taskbar, task manager is no longer accessible by right clicking the taskbar, and worst of all, the task bar cannot be adjusted to a different position on screens -- I used to always set my taskbar to the top to recall the NT era. I also, as with every windows upgrade had to look up correct (new) drivers for all of my hardware components, as windows driver finder has never worked smoothly... ever.... in history.
These wild changes cannot be simple mistakes or oversight in such a large company with so many employees so much experience in OS development. The only reason why these kinds of frustrations occur in my opinion is that MSFT is trying to implant a reason to update to their next OS, because right now, the only other place anyone can go is Linux (Which won't run all the apps I already bought/need) or to Mac (I have tried Apple, I don't like Apple, It's really not for me, Thanks I'll just suffer instead).
I'll probably also need a new laptop by the time win 12 or whatever comes out, and a new TV for strange reasons. :/
