Is there a way to make my PC seemingly not support Windows 11 so the annoying update nags go away? I'll never use that shit OS.

Disable tpm in bios

A few of my boxes have 7th gen processors. I get the nags and then it comes up and says oh sorry you're not eligible.

You can set a registry value so that there is no upgrade to win 11, but I don't know if it only works on enterprise.

It's barely helpful as it resets most regular updates, just disable TMP in bios.

Good luck come October of next year when Windows 10 goes EOL

Personally I'm just treating Windows 11 as a 2025 kind of problem...

Ever more reason to switch to Linux sooner than later. Otherwise, Windows 10 LTSC or Pro for Workstation.

[–] viking@infosec.pub 2 points 1 year ago

I'm hoping for Windows 12. Just like I skipped from Win 7 straight to 10, 8 was completely unusable.

There's a long term support version for 10 as well, until 2029. That would be the alternative, if whatever successor they choose is as bad or worse.

Use a CPU ISA that Microsoft refuses to compile Windows for.

Itanium? It's still supported well into 2025.
