I haven't upgraded my gaming PC to windows 11 yet, but I'll probably be forced to eventually so I'm interested in this.

- Bluetooth stops working once in about a week and only starts working again after ~3 reboots and some luck. Reinstalled drivers and fiddled with it many times.
- WiFi just stopped working altogether 3 weeks into the upgrade. It just refuses to work. Again, reinstalled (officially supported) drivers and messed with it a lot.
- The fans go louder and it's generally hotter.
- This may be a really weird bug that's possibly irrelevant, but the bootloader loves to erase itself from the efi boot options. If you go into the efi settings you have to manually add it, if you don't it'll work until you do.
- General UI bugs (lots of them)
- Subjective, but way more convoluted and annoying UI
I've heard the same kinds of things from other people too.
My advice is to skip upgrading for as long as you possibly can.
Definitely agree with the sentiment to hold off on the upgrade as long as possible.
Taskbar icons are always combined and you can't change it. Also right click menu is mostly broken and/or changed for the worse. I hate it.
I can't believe a multi-billion dollar company can't just have a tickbox to keep the old UI that everyone knows?
Why have changes for no reason and more clicks needed?
Of course with the forced updates (that I also hate), they could change it at any time on a whim. Or change something else...
That's an immediate no-go for me, why in the world are they sliding backwards in functionality?
