    Windows 11 Windows 11 Update fails after Linux install

    Hey everyone. So I was playing around with some linux distros installed on the same disk (I know, I know, not ideal, but I only have on SSD on my laptop) and now Windows update fails, and I think it's because of the changes the linux installations made to the bootloader, since major Windows...

    Windows 11 Stop Windows 11 from reupgrading

    I upgraded to Windows 11 and found it to be pretty annoying. I rolled back to Windows 10 using the "go back" function.

    Windows 10 Small form factor boards

    Windows 10 has trouble with small boards, even recent ones. The latest update bundle tries to install video drivers that makes the whole update roll back on restarting. When you tell it not to, and update your drivers before the update, it goes in after two more tries. Oh boy.
  10. Windows 10 Windows won't upgrade to 2004 again after rollback.

    Hi all, A while back I upgraded from 1909 to 2004. However, one particular piece of software started misbehaving and I had to roll back (there were a few other issues as well, but these were minor).

    Windows 10 I upgraded (downgrade in actuality) from Windows 7 to 10 when it was free. Then got back to Windows 7. Can I now upgrade back to 10 for free?

    I am sooo pi*sed that I'm being forced to "downgrade" to Windows 10. I tried it when it was free and really gave it a chance, but I couldn't stand it, so I rolled back to 7. It was like I could breathe again. Now that they have ended support for 7 and fearing malwares and viruses, I'm forced to...

    I came here for some assistance regarding a problem I can't seem to overcome.

    Windows 10 Pros and cons of Windows updates

    I have adopted a fairly old IT philosophy of 'If its not broken, don't fix it' when it comes to Windows 10. After all, the only 'valuable' stuff on your computer are documents and emails which you spent time on - if these are 'lost' there is a cost to recover this data. So - for the past...

    I did a rollback from my latest Windows Insider build. Afterwards it goes to a black screen after the welcome screen. I can use ctrl/alt/del to get into Task Manager. In there it shows just normal activity. I would think if it was still trying to recover it would show quite a lot of activity. I...
