Your PC is pushing for Windows 11, but it might be slowing things down. Checking performance, gaming, and temperatures could help decide if upgrading is worth it.

Staying updated with the newest security features is a priority. I use version 11 across all my semi-modern systems.

I’m focused on gaming and browsing only. That’s why I’ll stick with Windows 10—it functions smoothly with minimal problems. Windows 11 has some minor issues, but they’re mostly resolved now.

You can try disabling automatic updates or adjusting your settings to prevent forced updates.

I've been testing it for a long time across several builds on my main machine, including the Beta ring, without any problems. Each new update adds more features, which is great. I run ten machines daily and move between them smoothly.

Windows 10 and 11 differences are minimal. The issues people mention tend to be exaggerated, similar to any other transition between versions. I've switched from 11 to 8.1 and back to 10 multiple times while both were supported. Besides launching 11 with outdated certificates that caused problems for some apps—like the Snipping Tool, which fixed itself after a week—it hasn't changed much compared to version 10. I still use my older work machine on Windows 10 in the office and my newer one at home, feeling comfortable with either.

It's reasonable to note that Windows 10 will keep getting security patches through 2025, meaning Windows 11 currently lacks that benefit. You can stop updates by setting your device incompatible. Turn off fTPM and/or Secure Boot in the BIOS settings. Warning: Avoid disabling fTPM if you're using drive encryption (Bitlocker), as this would remove your encryption keys and make the drive unreadable, rendering Windows unusable.

A more effective method to keep using Windows 10 without sacrificing security is by adjusting certain registry settings (follow the instructions in the 22H2 reg file). This approach avoids disabling Secure Boot and remains valid until the end of support.
