Your PC is experiencing several strange problems that haven't resolved after long troubleshooting sessions, likely related to software (such as videos not loading, Bluetooth issues, performance drops, frequent shutdowns). A clean Windows installation might be a simpler solution. Is version 11 stable? Will it run faster than version 10? Are you missing any features? You mainly use it for gaming, video, and basic Office applications—your system specs are listed in your profile.
It's another day, another post. All set with a fresh start—no upgrades needed.
Noticing the various issues and glitches on this forum, I’d say it’s not worth it. But as @rickeo suggested, most problems are just updates. Edit, maybe the question should focus on whether Windows 10 is becoming unsafe or unusable. If the answer is no, then we can go back to the old saying: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”
I've had this experience myself. I maintain a tidy setup—no lag, everything runs smoothly, and VR functions perfectly. It's not widely liked, but I think most problems come from the software users installing.
I believe your point is that Windows 10 has major problems, but most of your concerns aren't typical. You said you spent just a few hours fixing things, which wouldn't be enough if you were dealing with multiple software issues. If there are hardware problems, running diagnostics only through software won't help. So no. Windows 11 isn't better than proper troubleshooting from the start.
I completed an on-device upgrade right after resolving the Ryzen performance problems. There have been no issues at all. A fresh installation isn't required, though it could help avoid future complications. If you're comfortable with that, it's the best option.
All data is stored in the cloud and my second drive means nothing is lost. A clean installation should work fine since my PC will be back online in an hour—just install drivers and a few programs.
I always improve, never faced any issues. A fresh install would reduce risks, but claiming it’s never a good idea can be misleading. In about 99% of situations, upgrades work smoothly.
