In microsoft’s defense, it’s not just their fault, the manufacturers will no longer support the hardware either, But it’s so unfortunate when working hardware ends up in the landfill due to software & driver issues. A printer here, GPU there, scanner, capture card, etc.
But I too am tired of hardware breakages after OS upgrades. I haven’t tried windows 11 yet, and probably won’t until forced to for work. IMHO this is what finally pushed users off of windows 7 to windows 10.Ĭan’t Microsoft stop tinkering with Windows internals in a way that breaks drivers? Why can’t they realise that Windows’ dependence on third-party drivers imposes certain constraints? I understand why the Vista (Windows NT 6.x) breakage had to happen, but there is no reason for the Windows 11 breakage. They may repeat the deceptive UI tactics they used to force users to upgrade windows 7 without obtaining clear owner consent.
How embarrassing would it be if, 2.5 years from now, Windows 10 support is expiring but most Windows users are still on Windows 10? That’s a future Microsoft wants to avoid.
