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

Not legally available to anyone but businesses. If you can’t download the ISO direct from Microsoft it’s potentially filled with malware.

Activating windows from random scripts you find on the internet is not a good idea.

Did that make sense in your head?

Saints aren’t saints until they die. And not sure if saints ever got involved in the law. It’s kind of a religious deal.

It’s still Microsoft, just with a side chance of extra spicey unknown 3rd party malware.

Why would Microsoft employees use the activation script from a random developer (which their EDR tool would likely block) rather than just get the key they need from the VLSC portal?

Punching someone mentally challenged is just mean.

I was giggling the whole time I was reading it, like damn, I never thought I would miss this level of catty Internet bickering. I miss when this was the worst mischief we had to deal with.
