Default Subsim & Windows 11

I am curious. How does the Win 11 intervention intercede with Subsim.? I have win 10 Home and want to know what the interaction twixt the two equates. There is no way I am going to allow Win 11 screw up Subsim.

There's some debate about most people's computers being unable to run Windows 11 in the first place, if this is true Microsoft will have willingly shot themselves in the foot.
I expect what he says in the video will all be changed in the final release version, if not, don't worry about it as Win 10's retirement date is not until 14/10/2025.

Myself... just had updater for Window's... try to push Me to a Win 11 update... I think.

Computer rebooted on Me, no warning... when it booted back up, got some message box that popped up & read:

"Oh, we're sorry, but... you're NOT able to upgrade to Win 11."

I agree with moonlight...

Windows, just shot themselves... majorly...

I am on a Windows Insider hub, and my machine has attempted 3 Win11 updates without my permission on the "Insider" computer - but that's what it is. MS did re-release the System Checker tool to help see if you are "ready" for Windows 11, and does have better results now:

download the appropriate version for your computer. I do not know for certain, but if memory serves correctly, it will not run from Win7. The problem with Win11 is that you need a UEFI "bios", AND a "Trusted Platform Module" (TPM), which is what kills it for ALL of the computers in my house... I do have two computers with UEFI, but they are NOT new enough for a TPM. Supposedly, rumor has it (such a reliable source) that after 1st Jan 2022, that there will be another version of Win11 that will be compatible with older hardware. Don't hold your breath...
