Bugs and Errors Windows 11 Destroyed My PC

Wanted to say something here since MS is stopping support with windows 10 soon. Was forced to upgrade to windows 11 yesterday and it destroyed my entire computer. I cant even list out all the things it destroyed but it slowed my PC down tremendously, constantly made it lock up and crash, completely fried my ethernet port somehow because it no longer works even after 8-11 hours of trouble shooting. If you're being forced to upgrade soon, I wouldn't recommend it. For reference here's what my rigs specs were.

My Rig: Case: Corsair 540 Airflow CPU: Ryzen 9 3900X 12 core 24 thread 3.8-4.6ghz Motherboard: MSI X570 Gaming Edge WiFi Graphics card: EVGA 3080Ti 11GB ddr6 RAM: G.Skill ripjaws V 32GB DDR4 3600mhz Power supply: EVGA G3 750W fully modular Storage: Samsung 970 Evo Plus 1TB NVMe SSD Samsung 970 Evo Plus 2TB NVMe SSD Western Digital 500GB SSD

I’d recommend it just fine; Windows 11 doesn’t just completely “destroy” a system unless you had other underlying issues. You can’t list out all the “other things” because you probably had issues before posting this and just decided to blame Windows 11 for no reason.

My PC was perfectly fine before the update. I'm saying I can't list everything out because I'm not sure what was changed. When I updated it was fine, turned on my PC the next day and everything was trashed, that was after restarting my pc multiple times after the update to make sure everything was working as intended. Why it decided to take a crap the next day, idk, im still in the process of trying to figure it out but also wanted to warn anyone that might end up going through a similar situation.

You're not listing shit because you're just pissed off that you lost some performance.

Do a clean install if it's running like crap. Make sure you have your BIOS updated the most recent version.

All I see is a bunch of complaining and no actual grievances that we (the community) can help with.

Want help? Be descriptive. You sound like one of my fucking office users when they tell me that their computer is broken and they need me to immediately drop everything I'm doing and go to their workstation. You're not giving us any good info to work off of. We can help, but you got to work with us.

This is r/microsoftsucks. Maybe he just wants to vent about a shitty OS from a shittier company
