Finally a good Windows 11 feature
I’m getting in new hardware next month, can I still use windows 10 or will I miss something that will benefit the newer hardware by not using windows 11?
I know it’s nearing EOL soon.
For now yeah, but once Oct 2025 comes around, your options are:
-
Keep running Win10 without security updates. If you’re planning on using the internet still, you’ll need to be increasingly careful as new vulnerabilities come out.
-
Buy (or otherwise acquire) Win10 LTSC. This will keep you safe until 2032 (dependent on which version you get), but when that happens you’ll be right here again.
-
Switch to Win11 and just bare with it. Possibly look up guides to see what you can do about debloating it.
-
Switch to Linux. I’m not an expert on Distros but I hear Mint is good for people coming from Windows.
-
As much as I don’t like 11, it is probably better just to keep up with security updates. If you are confident in your ability to avoid malicious software and websites, then I would stick with windows 10 for as long as you can.
linux exists and plays all these ubisoft games.
R6 siege does not, otherwise many (most even) do. If you do decide to try Linux check https://areweanticheatyet.com/ and https://www.protondb.com/ for your specific games you want to play.

Every game that works on steamdeck is working on linux.
The common known issues are all in the past:
Linux in 2024;
- has plenty user friendly distros.
- can find and install software more easily then windows.
- Has officia nvidia support drivers.
- Can run .exe programs using wine/proton/steam.
Dualboot your Machine today!!
Depends on the hardware. Intel Chips with big.LITTLE design (aka e-cores and p-cores) work better in 11 because its scheduler is built with core configurations in mind (unless a semi-recent update also brought that to 10. My information is not the newest. I replaced 11 with Linux pretty quickly)
It broke a bunch of shit. I updated and suddenly I started running out of VRAM. Had to restore the previous version to fix it
why are they patching around xmas? wtf is wrong with these people
