Should i upgrade to Windows 11?


i run w11 on 4770k ezpz you just debloat it with christitus winutil or winhance and you are set, its win 10, all these "security features" are non essential with you behind NAT on router.. i literally deleted win defender 4-5 years ago and had no issues.. i full scan once a year with emsisoft emergency kit and never found anything
Again another fallacious argument. Your argument is like saying I never wear a seatbelt and I have never had an accident, therefor seatbelts are not needed.

All your experience proves is you have been lucky.

OP do not follow such ridiculous advice.

before even considering upgrading your going to have to look and see if your computer will support SSE4.2 instruction set (and the POPCNT instruction). . since this is hard written code. Even rufus will not by pass this ms mandate. if you cant update to 11 . There is another choice to consider move toWindows 10 IoT Enterprise 21h2 as it has updates till 2032. heck i know people that still use windows 7 and connect to the interweb as my gradma cause it lol. my desktop is older than dirt and i moved to windows 11by using rufus and am using windows insider program . And i still get all the updates like security and cu's not really sure if i get the feature up dates. simply because the computer stays on 24/7 .

I usually do a reboot once a week and if any updates are needed there installed without me knowing . and weekley i shut it down over night to clear out stuff.

all these "security features" are non essential with you behind NAT on router
Pardon my frankness, but NAT will do absolutely nothing for many vulnerabilities.
