- A new patch is being quietly pushed to Windows 10 (and 11) PCs
- It’ll force upgrades in certain circumstances to keep the PC in support
- This update will mean more nag prompts coming to your PC
True, it’s as difficult as plugging in a flash drive and clicking three things
Your average yank can’t attempt to tie their shoes without accidentally committing genocide lol stay away from installing operating systems
as difficult as plugging in a flash drive
That’s a gross over-simplification
They have to
- Download the windows ISO
- How do you find the original ISO and not a cracked one?
- Get instructions to modify the ISO
- Hope you get the right set of instructions from a genuine website
- Download Rufus and install
- Make backup of their data
- Hope you disabled Bitlocker also
- Reboot and press the F? key to change boot order (F? varies from system to system)
- How do you even find the right key for this?
- Follow the installation process
One of the reasons Linux is not widespread is because following these “simple” instructions is too much for an average user. So I doubt a Windows user will be bothered to modify their OS. I have installed different variants of Linux 100s of time and even I need to check online if their are any hidden gotchas.
Exactly. You’d get your family “computer person” to do it.
If they care about the OS you want to use, they’ll upgrade to W11 this way.
If they’re obnoxious, self congratulatory Linux users, they’ll try to force you onto an OS you don’t understand
Which is better for the average person?
