>try out Windows after 12 years on Linux>supposed to "just work">have to tinker more than in the past 5 years on Linuxcool operating system guys
>tinkertinker how?You install Windows and run ShutUp10+.All you need to do. The rest is just the things you personally require.
Fanboy thread"The mods do nothing around here."
>>106462630>have to tinker more than in the past 5 years on LinuxAin't that a bitch. I don't mind because I enjoy tinkering to a degree, but holy shit I wouldn't have to so much if they just left Classic theme alone.Also, it's akshually GNU+Linux.
That taskbar is the most disgusting thing I've ever seen.
>>106462684I agree, but it's like 3 button clicks to fix it up, no terminal or plugin fuckery required
>>106462717I must admit, I've not tried yet, only activated mine the other day and didn't bother to check. Nice to know I can tart it up a bit, but still gay that I can't move it to the side of the screen though.
>>106462806use startallback, restores a 10 or 7 or XP start menu and reenables the old taskbar. it's all still in the OS, it just turns it back on
>>106462806You can you, just need a turd party program.
>>106462640>>106462640>Fanboy thread>"The mods do nothing around here.">cool operating system guys
>>106462858holy fuck this looks like shit
No standards, no tinkering. Nothing's good enough out of the box, ever.
>>106462847>>106462858Nice, I'll give it a whirl. Thanks.
>>106462907Glad you don't have to use it? Here is what I normally have, and I am unsure if ExplorerPatcher is the reason I can't have a similarly slim vertical bar or because of the toolbars. I am certainly not going to test it without a cat macro asking me nicely.>>106462920This post >>106462858 is only using ExplorerPatcher and another program called ``win11-toggle-rounded-corners.exe''. Good luck.
>>106462684How so?
>>106462630>he installed 11>not 10 ltsc
Welcome back into the light, I hope you get a good job, a promotion if you already have one, spend less time worrying about operating systems and more time playing games, reading books, watching movies or whatever it is you do on your PC.
>>106463123Why not W11 Iot Entrprise LTSC?
Quick question:I installed Win11 on Virtualbox, and made a bat file to auto-mount a bunch of partitions on start-up. If I install Win 10 LTSC instead, will that same bat file work or will I have to make a new one?>>106463095Aesthetics are subjective, it's me, not you.
>>106462966>using ExplorerPatcher and another program called ``win11-toggle-rounded-corners.exe''. Good luck.Cool, cheers lad.
>>106463180Some unique identifiers might change. You can try asking the professionals over in the >>>/g/fwt
>>106463123That's the same shit as far as tinkering goes. Unless it's completely different from Windows 10 enterprise which I used myself.
>>106463202I see, will do. Thanks for the heads-up.
I thought I'd be fine with 11, but my laptop I hardly use downloaded it and I'm really not. The taskmanager wastes ~3 inches of screen space and I need to stretch it to see what the processes are using
>>106463148>spend less time worrying about operating systemsThis is a technology board, we are supposed to play with operating systems for fun.
>technology enthusiasts board>can't figure out windowsAlways makes me chuckle
>>106463166the iot ltac part is why this "you have to tinkertranny windows now!" meme is gaining traction btw. just use straight enterprise.
>>106463250>technology enthusiast board>actively figuring out Windows with fellow enthusiastsYou ignorant little kids sure are cute sometimes. Dumb, butt cute.
>>106463166javascript in the start menu
>>106463208yeah its differentfor example you can remove edge with right click, and it doesnt have any bloatware not even any media player is preinstalled
>>106463276No, you have to tinker with windows because it looks like shit. If they had just left Classic theme alone, all you would have to do is tweak a few things and run some anti-privacyinvading scripts.
>>106463300>GNOME Shell is written in C and JavaScript>KDE: C++ and QML. Inline JavaScript code handles imperative aspects.
>>106463244Virtualbox can run any OS you want.
>>106462858This looks like a Linux distro from 2005
>>106463316windows 10 ltsc iot enterprise doesnt have this problem...
>>106462639I bought a laptop that shipped it about a year ago. Because I was on a trip, I didn't have wifi. Couldn't even log in. The laptop was a literal brick without internet. LMAO. First thing I did was install linux.
>>106462639>>106462717>>106462847>*forced update comes in and breaks your third party program*
my fan control software (absolutly necessary and non negotiable) is using winring0 and windows wont shut up about it even after granting it an exclusion. i literally do not care about security holy shit.
>>106463328I have never been a fan of vertical taskbars, especially big old fat ones like that.
>>106463321How is this topic excluding the use of Virtualbox at all?
>>106463321>VirtualboxIn a VM everything works perfectly and you won't learn how to deal with real problems.
>>106463313Man, it felt sooooo fucking good doing that. I nearly coomed.
>>106463360I like them with dual displays, putting it on the one I use least. The ones posted here are too thick for me though.
>>106463473>one
>>106462630I still don't know how people can use this shit on their laptops. Windows literally doesn't sleep. Not only do fans sometimes randomly spin while Windows is "sleeping", I often wake up just to find my work laptop missing 20% of it's battery or it's battery being completely dead.What a fucking garbage OS, man. I really wish Linux shipped with more/most laptops so normies don't have to suffer.
>>106463343>outdated TCP stack limiting you to sub gigabit speedsno thanks bro
>people ITT arguing there is no tinkering on Windows and all problems can easily be fixed... by tinkeringlmao the irony
>>106463565Whenever I tried Linux on any laptop it always had worse battery life than Windows on the same hardware. You probably spent 1000 hours tweaking your shit and think it's just normal.
>>106463796Windows 10 to Linux Mint doubled the battery life on my Thinkpad
>>106463346saar just run other script from a random russian forum its going to work saar linux btfo
>>106463313Why would I want to remove edge...? That just causes problems. Also I used the N version of enterprise which doesn't have media player either.
>>106463928I don't believe you. Sorry.
i'm just so glad i don't deal with windows anymore
>>106464164>That just causes problems.Nigga wut?
>>106464164wasn't there an update long ago where microsoft allowed to uninstall edge?
>>106462630>cant move taskbar to the topSorry but no. Maybe i will join when they release all DLCs.
>>106463346yeah maybe. but it's been working for 10 years with no problem.
>>106463796I just installed Bazzite, no tweaking.
