Is Windows 11 a glorified Windows 10?


Winuser said:
At present it does seem that Win 11 is just Win 10 with a new GUI and more security features turned on. The thing we need to realize is that as Win 11 matures the similarities are going to get further and further apart. I look for some time in the near future for all noncompliant devices to either stop receiving updates or to have major stability issues.

I think there's changes under the hood as well.

As they say, looks can be deceiving. There is a lot of things under the hood that makes Win 11 different than Win 10. The changes have only just begun.

It makes sense to change to W11 if you have the hardware, as it is going to be getting the lions share of development from Microsoft from now on and the enhanced security is much appreciated.
