My computer specs are pretty good—should I go with Windows 10 or 11?
My setup is a 12600KF with a MSI B760M motherboard, 32GB of RAM, a 1TB hard drive, and an XFX 3060 Ti. I mainly use it for coding, running services, and gaming (CS2, LoL, etc.). I’m torn between Windows 10 and Windows 11. If I go with Windows 11, should I choose 23H2, 24H2, or 25H2? Also, should I go with the Pro edition or another version? Looking for advice.
25h2 Update forcing GPU to not be recognised by apps/games
As per title, this only recently happened with the up to date update from 5 days ago (I believe it was 5 days ago) and after this I noticed while trying to load up Subnautica 2 like I had done normally it was laggy and crashed, strange.. other games did the same (except some older DX9 titles), so I load up 3D Mark and noticed some of the test said I am not running compatible hardware not seeing my 4070 Ti Super. I reinstalled windows to a 23h2 state, and for 2 days no problems, then I thought ok maybe it was a silly glitch and then updated to 25h2 yesterday and everything was fine, until tonight it happened again, while playing I notice a sudden drop in fps and there it was again the same problem 3D Mark not recognising hardware but the day before it did, and Furmark doesn't even load.. and I noticed in Event Viewer some dll files are not loading either. The NVMe drive is fine no errors. This only happens in 25h2 and I am at a loss, because for a few months I was running 25h2 fine. Any insights or if people have experienced this and had fixes that would be great.

Windows 11 25H2 update fails with error 0x8007001f – should I use the Installation Assistant?
Hi, I am trying to install the Windows 11 25H2 feature update, but Windows Update fails every time with error 0x8007001f during the installation process. I already tried the following steps: • SFC and DISM (both clean) • Resetting Windows Update components • Resetting SoftwareDistribution and Catroot2 • Restarting all update-related services • Checking drivers • Free disk space is available Despite all this, Windows Update still fails with the same error. My question is: Is it recommended to use the Windows 11 Installation Assistant when Windows Update cannot install a feature update? I want to make sure this is the correct and safe method before proceeding. Thanks!May 2026 KB5089549 make my system unbootable
Today, I have updated my HP Elite X2 G4 with May 2026 Tuesday update KB5089549 and several other updates. The update fail, when restarted, an error dialog read Thing does not go as expected, and it roll back my system. After restart, I attempt to update again and it fail with the same reason. So I proceed to manual update by downloading update from Mic4osoft Update Catalog. The update went fine until I restart my system. There is an error dialog stated that my system has a problem, windows 11 attempt to repair my system and fail. This make my system unbootable. Microsoft, Windows 11 is getting worst and worst. Updating is a real nightmare. It take forever and 5his time, may be it’s time for me to switch to Mac
Can't upgrade to Windows 11 Despite meeting requirements
I have secure boot enabled and TPM enabled, and exceed all minimum hardware requirements. Yet, I still get a vague error that my machine doesn't meet specs when trying to upgrade to Windows 11. The only thing I can think of being an issue is that for some reason my Windows drive shows as "Windows Boot Manager" in BIOS, while my PopOS drive shows as "UEFI ...". Should Windows also show as UEFI? I don't know why it doesn't show as UEFI or how to fix it.
Update for Windows Security Platform - broke my computer
Hello all. I went to apply the following update to my computer: Update for Windows Security platform - KB5007651 (Version 10.0.29573.1002) Upon restart I could no longer use the start menu. When I would click on it, the menu would come on the screen and disappear in two seconds. Any attempt to click on the User or the Power Icon would do nothing. I tried rebooting using the command prompt and it was still broken after the reboot. Tried using DSIM and it kept getting stuck at 62.3 %. Finally just restored from backup and everything worked again. I know it's an important update, but if the computer is useless afterwards - what's the point? Anybody else experience this and how did you resolve it? -- Jim Processor Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-9700K CPU @ 3.60GHz (3.60 GHz) Installed RAM 64.0 GB Graphics card NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3070 (8 GB) Storage 1.54 TB of 3.64 TB used System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor Edition Windows 11 Pro Version 25H2 OS build 26200.8457 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.304.0
