Edwin isn’t actually real, he (it) is a search and destroy application AI bot built for the testing purposes of new applications.
A great asset for our community. I believe he (it) will soon be a plug-in for this forum software.

    Gave Dell touch screen with Windows 11 to daughter and got me an OTVOC. Being a PC builder I own many desktop PCs as well. I am a father of five providing PCs, laptops, and tablets for all my family, most of which I have modified, rebuilt, or simply built from scratch. I do not own a cell phone, never have, never will.
Common sense should be changed in a dictionary to an uncommon sense, since majority is dumb these days.


True, my tweaking journey started to get rid of a green loading bar in explorer and here I am.
It is not that hard, I am not a programmer, not an expert, I just copy/paste and I manage.
I cut Windows 11 processes to half from 150 to 70. but it runs like a kitten. It is worth it.

View attachment 121777

68 processes / 675 threads / 28205 handles / 3,6GB RAM (1.1GB used by ramdisk)

Yes, most people hate 11, but it is here to stay, you can not use XP/7 forever. Tame it or lose it. :smirk:

Meh. Windows 12 will be here soon enough and then I'll have something new not to be impressed with. :cool:

Yup. When it hurts I holler. I don't just whine and snivel. I shout it from the rooftops. I guess I'm a bit of a maverick because going with the flow has never been my strongest point. I have no problem taking the blame for my choices either. No doubt all that surgery I did on Windows 10 to eliminate the spyware, bloatware, adware etc. had something to do with that failed rollback. Perhaps it also had something to do with the failed Win 11 upgrade too. Hard to say. I have this bizarre idea that my hardware is my property and privacy is a big part of that. My experience with Win 11 has been largely negative. The features really aren't that profoundly superior and it doesn't strike me as being all that flexible. It's an easy OS to break so perhaps it is easy to fix too.

Not that I'm not willing to give credit where it is due. When Windows XP came out I was blown away by how superior it was to its predecessors. Perhaps I expect too much from Windows. They're not likely to pull something of such magnitude again, I suppose. I'm not from the tablet generation. I'm a boomer. Ashes to ashes, funk to funky... This too shall pass.
:cool:
I understand. I'm curious if you've tried O+OShutUp10++ on your Windows 11 installs?
I've really liked it and noticed the benefit in both privacy and performance improvement.
Have you tried O+OShutUp10++ ?

I'm thinking about trying something else but I have to build my ROGUE PC first to try it out. I won't say what it is that I plan to do because then the forum will be inclined to use U+Boot-Delete -- Scannerman.

Yesterday, I just dragged out my Asus P6T with the Xeon 5690 running @4.3 GHz and installed 11 Pro on it. It's MBR, but it seems to be as efficient as my ASRock 4790K machine, but it's hard to tell since I only surf with all my PC's.
I'll bet that Xeon performs pretty zippy with Windows 11 -especially if you tweak it and trim down the excess MS fluff (using O+OShutUp10++, etc)

I stopped building machines with off the shelf Mainboards, over a decade ago.

Been with with Dell ex corp machines, with Windows COA sticker/in BIOS, for as long as I can remember.

Free, licensed Windows, is my priority,
Me too. I agree with that perspective. (y) :-)
