PC Check told me my computer isn't compatible.

I'll probably ride my current desktop out for another year or two or until they are about to start charging for W11
Did the math today. Upgrades were free for 2.5 years after Windows 10 was launched. If they keep that the same, then I need to buy a desktop that meets the requirements by summer 2024. PCs are overpriced right now anyways thanks to supply issues and bitcoin mining so no skin off my back :yeshrug:

My install partially corrupted for some reason. It still works but none of the native Windows apps work. Gonna have to reinstall and start over.

Forgot I made this thread. I was a day one adopter. Outside of toolbar fukkery I haven't had any issues really.
I've been on the Dev Channel builds because I wanted early access. I had a few weeks where it would blue screen while gaming. I did that so y'all wouldn't have to :unimpressed: . Once they fixed that it's been smooth. I wish the start menu was handled differently and file explorer didn't hide so many options, but the rest I like.

My computer crashes sometimes when I open it from lock screen ever since I updated. It's annoying, but nothing too terrible

2. Surface Book 2​

Microsoft finally included dedicated brightness control keys on the keyboard. You can now control Surface Book’s screen brightness with a single key located next to the Esc key.

  • Increase Screen Brightness Shortcut Key
    F2
  • Lower Screen Brightness Shortcut Key
    F1
