The hard-on certain people at MS have for TPM concerns me - I don't think most people get that it is actively hostile to the end user despite being talked about as if something that helps to protect the end user. Once it becomes a mandatory requirement it allows MS and/or software vendors to have the last say on what you do with your PC - eventually it will become a mandatory requirement to connect your PC online and that is that - control of the operating system has been moved to those whose best interests are NOT the end users.

What motherboard do you have?
To be honest, Download the ISO file from Microsoft and then use Rufus to make the USB stick.
When you click start to burn it to a USB stick tick the options to remove TPM requirement and then you can install Windows 11
The new windows update set the power profile to performance instead of leaving it on Balanced it seems, so the monitor wasn't going to sleep mode when PC was locked and as such the OLED pixel refresh wasn't being done.
Luckily noticed early and set it back to balanced and all is well again.
You don't want it running in performance mode as it also keeps CPU cores active when not needed and stuff wasting energy.

Installed some windows updates the other day, now I have a weird issue.
Monitor turns off after 15 mins idle as normal.
Previously I'd wiggle the mouse to wake it.
Now sometimes the mouse and keyboard don't wake it.
Anyone had that and know a fix?

Microsoft now saying that they will also 'unsupport' Office 365 when Windows 10 goes EOL...
If they are so determined to get people on to Windows 11 maybe they should listen to users and stop adding features that people don't want, that can't be disabled...

I'm not sure MS know what people want, I'm not even sure MS know what they want what with all the different directions they've been pulling Windows over the last decade or more.

Running 11 on laptop at work. Moved to 11 at home in the past 6 months. Don't use for gaming so haven't seen much difference.
I currently use windows 10 and 11 depending on the device, including one on windows 11 for arm... I still use windows 10 on my primary pc because 11 seems to be missing stuff I use when I'm doing stuff at home. If they had feature parity I'd most likely move over to windows 11 and just use a windows 10 theme for start menu (don't like 11 start menu), although I'd also likely be disabling any encryption.
Unsupporting office 365 on windows 10... well there's plenty of free alternatives out there....
I use Explorer patcher to get my start menu like Windows 10 and I forget i'm even using windows 11 a lot of the time
Things I use it for
- Adding quick launch back (prefer this over pinning apps)
- Removing rounded corners
- Windows 10 right click menus
- Windows 10 combine options
- Windows 10 start menu
There is paid for versions like startallback and start11

I've got it. It does eventually wake the monitor but after 2 minutes or more...
I think I'll be solving it by installing Windows 10.
Microsoft is Blocking 24H2 Update on Windows 11 PCs With Auto HDR Enabled
Microsoft has blocked the 24H2 update on Windows 11 PCs where Auto HDR is enabled as the feature is breaking some SDR games.
www.thurrott.com
I have Auto HDR and 24H2 isn't being blocked, anyone else with Auto HDR and it's all working fine?
On my gaming PC I have Auto HDR enabled and 24H2 is blocked on it I assume due to that, but it is also blocked on one of my laptops and I don't think my Lenovo Legion Go has it available. Can't say I'm too fussed Windows Updates rarely bring anything worthwhile.
Wow, its true
Microsoft 365 users still on Windows 10 will be out of luck when Windows 10 is retired in October
What, you thought your subscription software would just keep working when you're already paying for it?
I am lucky that I didn't take advantage of installing a work 365 license on the home PC (Windows 10) but actually paid for a once time licence for Office 2021 which is supported until Oct 2026
Windows 10 related, but I expect that Windows 11 users will be seeing this too.
Is anybody seeing the below message?
This appears after clicking the Start menu, then the user's picture with the yellow dot (which is what drew my attention to it). Is there a way to disable the message? I guess Microsoft don't want me to use a local account.

24H2 just came up on Windows Update here but will give it a miss for now.
