Note to Microsoft: thank-you.

Agreed!

Operating Systems should not have "features" - NONE.

If I want a "snipping tool", I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want a "firewall", I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want an antivirus "defender", I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want a "candy crush" kiddy game, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want "3D" paint or printer apps, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want "people" contacts right on the taskbar, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want to "share" files, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want an all-in-one sytem-level "Cortana" tracking, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want to "sync" files, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

If I want my Start Menu to feed me advertisements, I'll add it myself from available third-party apps.

 

The Operating System should just "operate", bloatfree.

Something like that...

Their feature updates were very disruptive and unnecessary, nearly everyone of them would break at least one or two frequently used programs and then I'd have to wait for the kindness of the developer to fix it. Security updates is all we need. Like you said, let the user configure the OS the way they want.

microsoft finally did the right thing for once (the first time since windows 7)

Windows 7 was excellent, like it even better than XP.

It's not a surprise to me, as Windows 10 is reaching EoS soon.

Two and half years yet, and hopefully an extension.

Well, who knows if we will get an extension or not for Windows 10, but it would be great if we got an extension, considering Windows 11 is still crappy., and Windows 10 is still used the most.

Edited by Guest

windows 10 will no matter what become the windows 7 2.0 of operating systems (it will be hard to kill off)

Edited by legacyfan

there's also no more new keys for activation

Just a hunch but given the difficulty for many to even upgrade to Windows 11 Microsoft will provide at least a three year ESU extension like they did for Win7. They're making security patches for it well past 2025 anyway so it would be a chance for them to make more money.

 

Now, newer Windows versions support period are become shorter, just like Ubuntu.

Maybe in several months after the Windows 12 release, the Windows 11 support also will be officially go to death.
