I'm working with Tech Support for a company that has a problem with their recovery media. Currently, a workaround to their issue is to enable CSM in the BIOS.
However, now that Win 11 is released, I was curious whether computer manufacturers would get rid of CSM altogether since a Windows 11 requirement is UEFI and CSM / legacy mode would no longer be needed.
If any of you have systems that came preinstalled with Windows 11, could you let me know if your BIOS still has an option to enable CSM / Legacy mode?
