I read this article title as “Top 11 ways to get your entire IT department to ragequit”.
There are a shit ton of reasons to not migrate to windows 11. I’ll summarize it like the rest, it sucks balls. For example, let’s…oh hey! Look my wife had a baby! Ok let’s take a screenshot!..and we’re waiting!.. She’s in highschool now, really good student…an we’re waiting… Oh yeah she’s mostly at the boyfriends now since graduating from Harvard…and we’re waiting…she had 3 kids and a career in wild life photography until the republicans killed the last elephant…and we’re waiting…I’m sorry but my dad passed away yesterday, I accidentally turned off the computer, we use mind chips now anyway and they all run gnu Linux. Good day all!
Does anyone else remember when Microsoft claimed windows 10 would be the last windows? Probably more than half the applications I use for work do not work properly on a machine running windows 11. We know this because we tried. A controlled rollout ended in a roll back to windows 10 for the company I work for. It’s not that difficult to understand. Something about weird aspect ratios in our legacy software (that we are required to use) making drop downs and clickable buttons completely unviewable. We were able to use windows 8 compatibility mode on our windows 10 computers but that doesn’t fix the problem on windows 11. The company that created that software isn’t doing more than bug fixes and security updates for it and so this problem will never be rectified. That’s why.
No idea. Our company went full Win 11 since almost all of our systems are browser based and everyone is on modern laptops. I don’t really have an issue with Win 11 itself over Win 10. Outlook being buggy is honestly more annoying day to day.
That said, if IT would let me use a MacBook I’d switch instantly. It’s inexcusable to have to wait 10 seconds or more for my laptop to wake up in 2024. WTH Microsoft.
Because there’s no discernable benefits. Few applications, if any, require Windows 11. The average desk worker gets new-software-paralysis any time there’s an interface change. Windows 10 is still viable and receiving updates.
The better question is: Why would companies switch?
