If you have, what, if any issues did you run into? Did it effect AH, or your login to the game, controller set-up, etc.

Mine went flawless. 11 will auto install drivers too. I think you’ll like it.
If you do, consider 11 tweaks on my page.

Went well, but I did run Winhance ( https://winhance.net/ ) on Windows 10 which removed a lot of bloat, that carried through to Windows 11. In Win 10 I had a lot of stuff turned off like OneDrive. I think that made my experience smoother.

I upgraded from windows 10 to Linux Mint. I've heard windows 11 is more of a side grade then an upgrade unless you think enhanced telemetry is an upgrade.

I appreciate everyone's input.

I am familiar with win 11. I'm running a relatively streamlined version on my gaming computer, but I'm always looking for ways to improve it. My previous gaming computer, what I now call my "internet" computer is the one running win 10. It is also the one with all my important files. and my real concern is losing, or corrupting those files.

I'm no fan of windows and have considered moving to Linux, and may still do that.

Thanks again
