Oh bother. I still regret upgrading from windows 7 to 10. I hate the updates. I am on Hugesnet and Windows 10 updates use up me data allowance costing big bucks.🤬

There are hacks to disable the updates, but you shouldn’t. The updates to Windows defender and others protect against vulnerabilities to viruses, hackers and malware.

Right now there talking about 15-20% speed reductions with current AMD processors with Windows 11. I'd recommend to wait it out a bit. There's plenty of bugs that still need to be worked out.


That is typical for every new version since it takes a little while to figure out what processes we can turn off and such.
From the factory it's not configured for specific users but being a beta it runs all the bells and whistles whether we use them or not.

Got to tell you, when they uploaded Win 10 to my desktop without permission it messed up a lot of my photo software. Got them to switch me back to Win 7 and all has been well ever since. I'm going to ride that horse till it dies, but when available, get a laptop with Win 11 as backup, for travel, and JIC.


I was on a long business trip when Windows 10 was installed on my laptop without my permission, and it crashed my machine. Lost data and the use of the computer at the worst possible time. Had to reinstall everything.

I am using Windows 11 with the latest version of Photoshop with no problems so far.

I'm using Windows 11 with both Photoshop and Lightroom, and I've had no issues.

I was having an issue with Affinity Photo on Windows 10 where it wouldn't load at all. Once I upgraded to Win 11, the problem went away.

My only issue with Win 11 is a lag in my Bluetooth audio at the beginning of video playback. It clears up in about 4 seconds.


I work with the Windows insider program and It all depends on your CPU. If you have an AMD processor do not install Win 11. It can and will slow your computer down by about 25% as the max. and common style usage about 10 top 15 percent.

I reported that I was having no problems running Windows 11 and the newest version of Photoshop. That’s still true, but a few of my older plugins no longer work, but I tried the same plugins in Photoshop CS6 also on Windows 11 and they worked. The problem therefore is with Photoshop. Luckily for me all the newer stuff works, half of the old, and all the stuff from Topaz.

I think MS issued a fix for AMD CPU’s. Correct me if I’m wrong.
