  2. Questions about Windows 11

    Instead of making a new post along the same lines, I will ask the question here. I have a Lenovo T440s which is running windows 10 pro, that has the fourth gen i5 processor, which microsoft lists as not being able to run Windows 11.... I am considering maybe using the Rufus usb tool to install windows 11 on it. The question is, is it worth installing windows 11 pro, being unsupported or sticking with windows 10 pro?

    Windows 11 Pro Upgrade from Windows 10 Pro Edition

    No but after it installed the malfunctioning Windows 11 upgrade it was listed as Windows 11 Pro. Microsoft Windows support advised I reinstall Windows 10 Pro and said that Windows 11 is really only meant for new PC's that come with it preinstalled. MSI website doesn't list my 2020 GT76 Titan dt-039 notebook on their Windows 11 upgrade eligibility list so I guess that's why the Windows 11 Pro upgrade failed. I suggest being careful with trying the Windows 11 upgrade despite it stating my notebook was capable of running Windows 11 it was wrong. Luckily I have the original Windows 10 Pro USB Flash drive because the Windows 11 Pro upgrade was so incomplete I had no way of reverting notebook back to Windows 10 without reinstalling from a USB Flash.
