Dear Microsoft....
There are no comments here because we're all beyond caring. Everything you now do is a mess.
Microsoft is celebrating the milestone of Windows 11 24H2 reaching broad availability with… yet another "known issue." This time, it is related to Azure Virtual Desktop applications. The Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD) app bug was added to the Windows Health Dashboard at the end of last week: AVD apps may fail to fire up when they …
Well didn't M$ warn OEM's recently to phase out anything not running at least 11th Gen Intel kit ?
Perhaps anything less than that won't work with release 25H1 or 25H2 ?
It will bugger my employer if that's the case as around 40% of their "Windows 11 Compatible" PC fleet is HP 8th gen stuff.
I'd also be rather miffed as my recently purchased "pre-loved" Dell Optiplex mff machines ( 8th and 10th Gen ) won't be Win11 compatible for long.
I've refused to 'downgrade' to W11, just like I refused to move to W10 from W7 until I built a new system in 2019 and W7 was EOL... and now that W10 is going EOL this year... I still won't be moving to it.
I'm waiting for proton if I'm honest, I want to play my games, view some websites and watch some videos... I can't watch streaming services on my desktop anyway because they really dislike anyone who uses a VPN and tell you to fuck off. So I'm hoping that proton will be easy to learn and adjust to after decades of windows reliance... I just hope I'm not too old at 45 to learn because I've noticed a reluctance to put in the effort for new software creeping into my attitude recently.
I have only just moved from W7 to W10! And will enjoy it in a nice, stable, unchanging way once updates stop and unwanted features/setting keep on being shoved in my face again.
After 10? well unless they do a Vista-w7 event after 11 it will be Linux, goodbye Microsoft.
