I’m not sure why this year+ old thread has been necro-ed, given that the post that brought it back to life didn’t ask any new questions.
However, if you’re interested in an update, then I have Windows 11 on my gaming laptop, and I did have problems with Solasta, Pathfinder: Kingmaker and BG3 (the latter in DX11 mode only), all of which dropped to ridiculously low frame rates. I tracked this down to the Windows 11 Game DVR setting, which as I don’t care about game recording I could just turn off and that solved the issues. There has been a Windows update since that may have fixed the underlying problem, but I’ve not got round to turning the setting back on and seeing whether it’s now okay.
I haven’t had any problems with other games, including older ones, though haven’t played a huge variety of games in the past couple of years.
Companies and I certainly know still keep Windows 10 in office environments and not because they could not afford Windows 11.
Well and when I said retro games that I can also play example Unreal Tournament 2004 or even older. Example gog.com sell lots of old games. I do not play so old games you need some kind of emulator they run under Windows 11.
Now I am fully aware that Windows 11 practically works very well with most games. My point being I consider Windows 10 still good. I am not saying using Windows 11 is wrong, but on the same hand there are reasons why the big companies do not yet switch to Windows 11 and certainly not because Windows 11 is to expensive.
Before someone get nervous companies do not switch to Windows 11 I do think it has to with security and I do think Windows 11 can be secure specially if you combine it with 3rd party firewall and antivirus software and other security. Companies can use huge amount of special software that many home users never use. It is not because it does not work... but does it work as stable as with Windows 10? Companies can of course test it before they roll with Windows 11. Well and IT support gets more workload if every computer is switched to Windows 11 at least in the beginning.
Here is the golden question. If Windows 11 if so excellent why the huge amount of companies still prefer Windows 11? Typically it can be we wait it becomes more mature well I would not call Windows 11 very young anymore.
and
You have yet to convince me why I should upgrade to Windows 11.
Windows 11 looks better, but performance is less then Windows 10? I do not care about Windows 11 looks better. I care about performance and stability with games and please no stuttering in some games due to Windows 11. Finally I am not saying Windows 11 is bad. If you use Windows 11 and you are happy good for you and continue to use it.
