    W11 security upgrade

    Hi A&K,

    Actually, W11 is compatible with certain i3 and i5 processors. The developers wrote programming for some i5 chips but not others, There is no logic to the OS design as concerns chips. My computer fits every single parameter for W11.

    I could tweak the registry but shouldn't need to. Just wondered if MS had made any changes to the OS code. Sadly, no...

  3. Surface Pro 3 with Windows 11 Insider Preview OS vs. Surface Pro 4 with W10 Pro that cannot upgrade to W11

    Two questions:

    1. My Surface Pro 3 continues to download and install W11 updates on the Insider Preview Channel. How long might I expect to have access to updates? In other words, will I lose access and be forced to revert to W10?
    2. Can I enroll in Windows Insider Preview on my Surface Pro 4 and upgrade to W11 Insider Preview?
    I'm finding more and more to like about W11 and would certainly prefer to continue to move forward, not backward.
