PGLS

Personally...I'm still running Windows 10 Home Edition 64-bit. I adhere to the age old adage...if it ain't broke...don't fix it. Won't upgrade until I am absolutely required to do so.

So i upgraded for a 3rd time ..... i let the windows update do its thing before trying PG....didnt install any directx.....and PG is working fine...

Only thing i found was the cpu was running hot shortly after laptop start up....went into task manager/processes and microsoft search filter host was using 50% cpu constanly.....so i disabled that and all good now....

thx for the help

Good choice. I keep W10 System Image on one of my SATA III backup drives (just in case). I am using W11 these days after experimenting with several apps to make the Start Menu and Taskbar behave as they have for a long time. These are what I use to keep the UI very similar to W10.

Anyone reading this. You are responsible for your own results on W11. These are suggestions that worked for me.
