        Is there any test to determine whether my laptop hardware is capable of supporting Windows 11?

          Not sure if your PC is compatible with Windows 11? Here's how to check - CNET[^]

                I think the upgrade is free. I'm not ready to pay for a new OS when I have a perfectly good one.

                  They are. I'm thinking about all problems that you might or might not get with updated programs and settings and such. From experience, I prefer a clean slate for new major versions.

                          it doesn't seem that different at first glance (except the taskbar is locked at the bottom now :/ ) But I trust it extract even more performance from the hardware... Although I heard bug report to the contrary, it was marked as urgent bug...

                            Check you windows update panel, it tells you or there is a link to something that tells you. it might look like your system can't upgrade, but the windows update report tool might tool you are missing PTM2.0 or something, but, on most recent system, it's just a matter of truning them on in the bios. Windows update will still say you can't upgrade (while the checker tool say you can) in which which case, just wait a few days, Windows update will eventually catch up

                              Lenovo yoga When I was using as my note table during our weekly D&D & CoC afternoon, it ended up with like 20% left after 8 hours. On Windows 11 it ends up at 65%. Yeah!

                                  I think my battery life would also reach miraculous levels with W11. Simply because I would not use it very much. After recently installing Linux, Windows is almost completely retired now and only used once in a while for games.

                                  I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats. His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

                                    Your children want to know where you keep the keys to the house and the combination to the safe. :) Not fatal. Been running it and VS 2022 in a VM. Slower than 10 but that will go away. Like any interface changes, I want to puke at them at first site but I can get used to almost anything. Wow, love the shiny new icons! Also running the developer eval in a VM and it is OK. My base is Linux but I am not a zealot, just a preference. SSD's are so cheap, I don't understand why folks don't trial that way.
