I have no idea what Windows 11 contains…
DaveA start button that by default is not in the corner.
no bananaThat’s not the worst part. The worst part is how I can no longer have my taskbar on my second monitor. It is now locked to my first.
The worst part is how they make it nearly impossible to create a local user account. It’s fine to have alternative account types, but that’s not what I want on my own machine.
Yeah that’s irritating as well.
EntropywinsI can on win 11...
They’ve finally added it back? Tbh I never thought they would. I’ll have a look later.
Go to settings -> personalization -> taskbar. There are many different options for the display of the taskbar on multiple monitor setups.
Indeed there are. Not, since last I looked, an option to move the taskbar to another monitor without changing its priority.
I guess it’s been fixed since I last looked then! I’ll have to go through it. It wasn’t there when I installed W11, but there was a promise of adding it. I just didn’t expect that to happen.
I didn’t realize the taskbar options weren’t there at first for Windows 11. That would be very understandably annoying. The main pcs I use that have Windows 11 were just recently upgraded so I had no idea.
Yep. That’s the only way. Sadly many games have trouble handling that and start on the screen with the taskbar (which is my smaller screen in portrait orientation) with no way to move them.
In windows 10 I was able to just drag the taskbar to my second monitor without a problem.
System > Display > Personalization > Taskbar > Show my taskbar on all displays
Back in my days people were expected to at least try before shitting on software they didn't like, eh.
But mate, that doesn’t do what I want
James_RyanThere is so much to critic about win 11
But that really is just personal preference…
I don’t actually use Windows 11 so this is the only thing I know to complain about.
Sure, which side is default (or other small nuisances) might be preference, but if you take away the option to customize (which was once there) the critic is valid IMO.
NetherFalconit's basically just windows 10 but reskinned, rebranded and released as a "new operating system"
suokoThey added android apps, they're slowly switching to Linux. It's going to be EdgeOS, maybe based on arch instead of gentoo? :-D
HikiruNah, they won’t. Then devs will start supporting Linux and windows will lose their one advantage over Linux: compatibility

outside of the more neutral/negative features people mentioned, some of the major additions is better windows snap management (presets for organizing windows on a screen, and adjusting window sizes), and tabbed folders. It’s also meant to be used for windows subsystem for android for android app usage, but you can technically do that with windows 10 with some workarounds.
The only interesting feature is WSL2 with the possibility to “natively” mount Linux filesystems.
BlackmistIt’s W10 but they moved the start bar to the middle so it looks more like a Mac.
s_sEach new version of Windows is just Microsoft trying to further tighten the screws on its captive userbase.
They’ve not brought anything of value to customers in years.

They made some half-decent BASIC interpreters for 8-bit computers. That’s about it.
