So far in the last year or so, I've heard 0 reasons why I'd even need, want or benefit from Win11 over Win10. Tons of reasons in the negative column though. There isn't even anything to salivate over that might make you think it might be worth it to deal with the other tradeoffs. Hard pass.

Unfortunately, there's one very big reason you'll need Windows 11: that Windows 10 won't get security updates forever. After October 14th, 2025, you'll need to "upgrade" to it to stay secure.

Good news, in four years I run out of reasons not to go back to Windows 7, an OS that doesn't treat me with naked contempt.

If you setup a VM with WSUS, you can use that to setup an ideal install that is missing the annoying updates. If you capture an image right after doing that, you'll never need to install again.

You need to know which updates are bad and which are OKish. I assume there's a list somewhere, right?
