Microsoft finally admits almost all major Windows 11 core features are broken

I’ve solved my problems, at least temporarily, by removing Windows 11 from my computers and installing Microsoft Windows 10 IoT Enterprise Edition LTSC. This version provides security updates until 2032.

This means that I can wait to see what Microsoft does about killing off Windows 11 and introducing Windows 12, or introducing a guaranteed stable version of Windows 11 minus the bloat, spyware and AI slop. Also may see a new CEO as Microsoft’s current PR disaster with small users gains traction.

The downside is that this is a stopgap and I’m fully aware that over time my setup will become progressively obsolete in OS terms. However, I think this is a small inconvenience as I retain Windows 10’s stability, continue to get security updates, and can wait until Microsoft is forced to release a slimmer, stable and adequately tested operating system, and possibly replaces the current CEO with one more attuned to business reality rather than “increase share price, no matter the ultimate cost”.
