I didn't even know there was a windows 11 yet, but here goes: A weird Windows 11 bug won’t let some people install any security updates-
quote:Microsoft is warning users that some manually made Windows 11 installer media could contain a bug where new PC installs may not get future security updates. It affects USB and CD installers made with October and November release patches, which may be relevant to professional users who set up PCs within business or education environments, or enthusiasts who recently built their own PCs.
And the article goes on...

Weird, I have had windows 11 for probably a year and a half now.

I know I got it the instant it was offered, and I looked it up and it came out autumn of 2021.

Hmm.. Maybe I do have it. I very rarely use my computer, and I didn't see any windows 11 threads here. So I just assumed windows 10 was the last on out. Silly me.

Poor marketing by Microsoft.

Microsoft is changing to allow for older, previously deemed incompatible, computers to be upgraded to Windows 11. The reason for their change is due to the fact that many people were not buying Windows 11 computers, as expected. https://jasondeegan.com/windows-11-update-allows-installation-on-older-pcs-finally-easing-restrictions/#

This is fantastic news. I’m very glad that consumers held firm and Microsoft adjusted accordingly.

Unfortunately, the computer I would have loved to convert but didn't qualify died of a fried motherboard.

Mame, seriously, you may as well take the update and get used to it now because: "Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025: After this date, Microsoft will no longer provide: Free software updates from Windows Update Technical assistance Security fixes Your PC will still work, but Microsoft recommends moving to Windows 11." Really, 11 is better than 10.

Now I’m seeing this is incorrect and nothing has changed?
