I upgraded from W10 pro to  W11 Pro about 6 weeks ago, Wupdate had started to annoy me with its RAM hogging and high speed fan use.
the install rearranged my photo albums, music, documents...grrrr

It took me a few hours to personalise everything and get the appearance of my PC back to W10.
But all is not lost, I've disabled all unused ( and unwanterd) apps and as much of the AI that I can .
Also installed Open-shell and reverted to the familiar classic start menu

Give me another 4-5 years and  I may get used to the changes ;D

Win 10 is not extinct, they just stopped updating it.
I went out of my way to buy one of the last Win 10 PC's over Win 11, but as soon as it went on-line to load 10, MS gave me a free update so it auto loaded 11.

Only problems I've had are with the cloud, so I removed it, & new photo's so I run photo's legacy to keep my old camera working.
