Windows 11

And what they have left out.

So Windows 11 will be released to the public in less that a week and so far all it appears to be is 

  • Windows 10 with rounded corners
  • A number of features missing
  • System requirements that are not needed

Yes it is pretty, with the rounded corners, and that is the last of my good words.  



 

Featues missing

Lets start with the MAC style taskbar.

Default is the icons to the centre, but you can move it to the left.

Location of the taskbar is at bottom, no option to have it to snapping to left or the right running vertically, or even move it to the top is not an option.

Icon size, unless you are going to hack the registery then there is one size only.

In Windows 10 I like to have 

  • Small icons
  • Double height task bar
  • Combine when task bar is full
  • Seconds showing in the clock

None of this is possible 

Next the context menu.

This is the menu you get when you right click a file, now to get all the useful functions I have to click the "Show More Option".

System Requirements

TMP & UEFI

Windows 10 does not need them and Windows 11 will run with out them. So why? If you computer is over about 3 years old then it may not be able to run it, they say.
