Windows 11 is not suited for work

Hello everyone,

I just took the effort to register on this website to let some steam off.

 

I would like to express my profound disliking about Windows 11.

This morning, after some vacation days, I resumed working and windows, despite all the settings in place against this, decided to apply updates which stopped some of my peripherals from working. Of course, this included the GPU and the Bluetooth card, meaning that I could no longer join the meeting I was into.

 

Enough.

 

This is just the latest item on a list which has been growing longer and longer since many years ago, after Windows 7 went on retirement. It had issues, but at least it felt like it had some kind of reasoning behind.

I am really fed up, and I just wanted to share my experience. Why does everyone still use it? Just why? Why do developers still code for this platform, which is clearly not working?

Windows, and especially Windows 11, is just the most wrong possible tool for work. But probably also for anything else which is not a useless operation.

Thank you, Microsoft.

 

Sincerely, 
Davide

    I and my friend and business colleagues find Windows 11 to be really good for home or business and have no issue with it at all. We use Windows 11 Pro with HP and other Mini pc clone computers.

     

    It’s works the same for us as Windows 10, but just with slightly more features.

     

    So if you are having issues with peripherals not working in new Windows 11 updates, then that must be specific to your hardware and would need to be investigated by Microsoft technical support.

     

    Recommend you contact Microsoft technical support by phone for assistance and let them know what KB updates caused the issue. Also what specific computer you have.

     

    To get your peripherals on your computer going in the meantime, go to Windows update history and uninstall those new updates.
