I wonder if they’ve managed to make it even more baffling. I’ve only just started to learn win 10s weird ways at work.

I have an older computer (2000/01) that runs Windows XP Pro. Been extremely reliable and easy since having it (my first Dell).
As soon as I get newer computers they are wiped of Windows, or in my case with the latest (one in my signature) computer, had to replace the nvme SSD with Windows on, for the live of me could not figure out how format and install Bodhi on it.
Just can't imagine what Windows 11 will be like, what you see on youtube isn't the final outcome, who knows.

...and the funny thing with Windows is, each version just puts more "fluff" on dumbing down menus etc. ...the old windows is still there...it's very odd. I basically see each new iteration, if you'll call it that, as another "Skin layer" added on. Great for efficiency and low overhead. Can you sense my sarcasm? I'm piling it on thick... Had a laughable thought - what if they launch it and it's just the most amazing thing ever.

for the live of me could not figure out how format and install Bodhi on it. I have found the solution on several "Windows" computers to be in the BIOS. They all a little different but basically I figured out how to set the boot sequence to legacy and put my USB drive with Bodhi first. It is a bit of trial and error but so far (three different systems) I have overcome the secure boot or what seemed like the forced booting of Windows.

Only a fan of Windows XP Pro, why I still use it on an older PC.
