When your old PC goes over the Windows 10 update cliff, can Windows 11 save it?

    TFW you continue fucking around with Windows rather than learn Linux

      One thing doesn’t exclude the other.

        I suppose that’s a little like working to save the earth and working for big oil. Yes, one could do both but . . why?

        Can’t you do that with Wine for the most part?

          No idea, Altsnap, xmbc, everything, windocker, openshell, everything toolbar, fancyZon(ms powertoys) and ditto clipboard manager.

          Most of these are very unlikely to work with wine as they address general weak spots in both windows and linux
