That's the problem. Every time I download the latest AMD driver from AMD's website, Windows 11 replaces it again with its own Microsoft version when it does Windows updates. I can't find any way of stopping it from doing that. It's annoying. Any suggestions?

Turn off WU driver updates. You can use Winaero Tweaker.

When people say that Windows 11 runs slower than Windows 10, what do they mean?  I have updated my Windows 10 machine to Windows 11 just for a couple of weeks to have another nose and I find it runs a bit smoother than Windows 10, maybe because the UI is so cut down. Shrinking and expanding windows is smoother, not sure if it is faster. Can you really tell?
Moving windows about is smoother on Windows 11 and so far file explorer have not crashed.

Software works the same on Windows 11 as it does on Windows 10

Computer specs.

Ryzen 7 1700

Radeon rx5700

47GB of ram

Corsair MP510 NVMe SSD as the boot drive.

Yes, the machine is not supported, but I updated it using Rufus to make the USB install.

Saying all the above, there are things don't like about Windows 11 and I will be going back to Windows 10 at the end of the week.

The problem for me is that Windows 11 should be faster than Win10 given I have a 12th gen processor and DDR5 memory, all the stuff that is meant to make Windows 11 pop (ie. thread director), but it isn't.

It is ugly (to me), I don't feel like I can customise it to my liking, there are extra clicks to do stuff I do every day.. It should be fantastic, but it isn't. If there is a speed difference, I don't notice, so I will just use what works for me.

What are the specs of your laptop? It sounds like you’re using a HDD. At least swapping to SSD will make a noticeable improvement.

    • Google reshuffles its AI coding team as it struggles to catch Anthropic

      By +Edouard · Posted

      I'm so conflicted with the Google Search AI summaries. On one hand I don't like how it's harming smaller websites by greatly reducing traffic which will harm us all in the long run but on the other hand those AI summaries often give me the information I'm after. I have never once clicked on 'show me more' though and never will.

      Not a single company as small or large it may be is obligated to subsidize its products and sell them at a loss. Your way of thinking is socialist and as a West German with a German brother state but impoverished by state dictatorship and a socialist command economy situated to the East i can tell you - this kind of thinking very quickly leads to products not being produced anymore at all.
    • Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027

      By Hamid Ganji · Posted

      Apple reportedly has a second-generation iPhone Fold planned for 2027 by Hamid Ganji The iPhone Fold is one of the most anticipated tech products expected to debut this fall. It will be Apple’s first foldable iPhone, ushering in a new product category for the company. While the first generation has yet to hit the shelves, a new leak suggests Apple has already begun work on its successor. Chinese leaker Digital Chat Station claims that the second-generation iPhone Fold has already been confirmed, meaning Apple could launch a successor in fall 2027. The foldable iPhone is also reportedly referred to as the “iPhone Ultra,” though it remains unclear whether Apple will ultimately choose that branding, especially as Samsung is rumored to rename the Galaxy Z Fold 8 as the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra this year. The leaker also claims that the second-generation foldable will feature a wider folding display while reusing the same screen found in the first generation. Apple’s first foldable iPhone is expected to feature a 7.8-inch inner display and a 5.3-inch outer screen in a passport-style form factor. It has already been reported that Apple plans to change its iPhone release cycle in 2026 to spread launches throughout the year. Under this strategy, the iPhone Fold is expected to debut this fall alongside the iPhone 18 Pro and iPhone 18 Pro Max. The standard iPhone 18 and iPhone Air 2 are expected to arrive later in 2026 or in early 2027. Speaking of the iPhone Air, Digital Chat Station says Apple remains undecided about a third-generation model. The company is reportedly waiting to see how the iPhone Air 2 performs in the market, and if sales disappoint, a successor may never materialize. As we reported this week, the iPhone Air has not been scrapped from Apple’s plans. The second-generation model is reportedly scheduled for spring 2027 and could introduce upgrades such as an additional rear camera for ultrawide photography and improved battery life.

    • EU says AWS and Microsoft Azure should be treated as DMA gatekeepers

      By Nas · Posted

      The limited imaginations and business acumen of non-dominant players is simply that: the abject lack of creative business acumen. Businesses often want to operate in a financially-rewarding marketplace (free market economics) and/or exit/cash-out at maximal financial recompense. Money is their incentive; regulations are both their obstacles and their tools; politics is their means of influencing the marketplace. Google, in this story's example, is crying that AWS and Azure are "too dominant" -- cuz Google Cloud is not printing as much money as Alphabet wants (although it is still dramatically more than they actually need). The EU DMA should truly follow-the-money and treat the EU as its own sovereign nation in order to protect European market players: Domestic entities are exempt from market-influence regulations until absolute monopoly is achieved; Foreign (non-EU/non-Euro) entities are all regulated via stricter DMA measures whereby regulated partnership with independent domestic entity becomes the only way for foreign entities to 'tip the scale' for favorable financial remunerations. Basically create a dual-track aligning with China's foreign investment models. In my eyes, this is the only way to properly protect the European marketplace beyond the current dot-com/ai-bubble/social-media crazes.
