Install Linux bare metal and run Windows in a VM.There is no week nor day nor hour, when tyranny may not enter upon this country, if the people lose their supreme confidence in themselves -- and lose their roughness and spirit of defiance -- Tyranny may always enter -- there is no charm, no bar against it -- the only bar against it is a large resolute breed of men.

Building PC for a friend. He, and I, are Windows people. I built a machine for him in 2020. Why he wants Win 11 I don?t know. But the old machine will not support it. That damn TPM.
Figured I would download the Win 11 upgrade ISO and try his Win 10 license.#NotMyPresident

Windows is basically spyware now there's so much telemetry monitoring you. Dump it unless you airgap it and never connect to the internet.There is no week nor day nor hour, when tyranny may not enter upon this country, if the people lose their supreme confidence in themselves -- and lose their roughness and spirit of defiance -- Tyranny may always enter -- there is no charm, no bar against it -- the only bar against it is a large resolute breed of men.

Win 11 sucks. I "upgraded" it from Win 10 and within a week, downgraded back to Win 10.Comment

I bought a second machine with Win 11. first thing I did was google 'how to make Win 11 look like Win 10. Yes, some things are moved around and for the life of me I don't see how they are 'better'.
At any rate, not worth getting excited about. BUT don't get me started on Micorsoft 360. There is a money maker for Microsoft with no real advantages for the ordinary user."I am responsible for what I say, not what you understand."
or to say it another way:
"I know that you believe you understand what you think I said, but I'm not sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant."Comment

I bought Start11 from Stardock which will give you some UI customizability for Win11. Start10 was a great addition to my Win10 install that I've running for years.Comment

Yes you can. I have installed fresh Win10 and Win11 ISO with Win7 keys on old desktop/laptop COA stickers code.
Here is the registry fix for TPM and CPU unsupported error for Win11:
i. Open Regedit
ii. Navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup
iii. Create a DWORD (32-bit) Value called AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU and Set Value to 1If it's red, you're dead.

Clean install of Win 11 with no network connection refused Win 10 license. Bought Win 11 key from a place Tom?s Hardware mentioned. PC accepted it fine still with no network connection.#NotMyPresident
