(#) Windows 11 Hardware Requirements Bypasses:

* This works for clean installs and upgrade scenarios.
1. Skips TPM (Trusted Platform Module) check.
2. Skips Secure Boot check.
3. Skips minimum CPU (Processor) check.

7. Enables Offline Account via OOBE for all Editions.
8. Disables the watermark nag on desktop for unsupported hardware.
* At the upgrade menu you will see the word "Server" instead of "11", this is normal. It's part of the trick to circumvent the hardware requirements.

    Mr. Ramsey iHav a ~ OMG WTF yor retarded 'java hell' spinning globe of names' thing is eating my CPU = time 2 open your $hite in Firefox 52 with all that bull$hit switched off... OK I'm out of 'MyPal68' & in 'Firefox 52' now & opening 'NoScript' I C U got a lot of totally unnecessary #JavaHell on this $ite, but the really absurd, 1 that U R self-sabotaging your efforts with is the 'revolvermaps.com' thing, which iSwitched off. The rest iGez R related 2 banners & spam, which nobody wants or reads. N E waze, U should remove that 'spinning globe' thing, as U R harming everything about your site with it = like #DigitalPoison. Nobody cares (or regognizes) N E of the names & it blocks the 'globe map' N E way, so totally pointless 'anti-feature' bull$hit, kind of like the many 'anti-features' in a lot of OSes, like the forced 'multiple account versions' in Micro$hit XP =)) It's multiple PCs per user, not multiple users per PC = fux sake LOL!!

    OK my question = since U R maybe not interested 2 do N E of my $uggestions 2 improve 11 & so on, like adding the 'Update Blocker' by default so people can choose 2 'auto-destruct' their OS if they want, by turning it off if they R that crazy, among other tweaks, who do U know who would like 2 do it maybe, or if they R paid? I'm happy 2 pay 4 results, & can do it in small 'modular' bites as we go, like 'fix this little thing 4 X amount, then that 'Y' thing 4 other ammount, & so on'. iPay after each little fix/mod is verified 2 work. 4 example, adding 'desktop sync' 2 the Windows XP 'shell' so no 'video tearing' in streaming web videos (as is the default in Vista, 7, 8, 10, 11 yes?) Then next tweak iWould want is 'APO' (Audio Processor Object) support in the XP sound mixer (can maybe modify 'ASIO4ALL' 2 do the same thing?) iKnow it may B expensive, so if that is the case, we (whoever can do the mods) could maybe use an 'escrow company' 2 handle the transaction so they R not worried about getting paid if it works? iCould outline specific objectives, like with an 'ASIO' plugin it 'must reliably support putting the ReEQ plugin into the Windows sound mixer 'global sound output' from the mixer ~>
    https://cdm.link/2020/07/reeq-free-reaper-eq-keeps-getting-better/

    So on from there = many other things iWood like 2 do, including (as mentioned B 4) adding the 'shell' from XP into Windows 11, so the 'file manager ('Windows Explorer') & 'save as dialog box' & 'start menu & task bar' R all directly from XP, while the 'native' 11 garbage can 'sit in the background unused' (don't need 2 'delete' N E thing =) & the user can switch back & fourth (or if it's easier 2 just remove the 'native' 11 shell, that's fine, because it sux azz). The most gigantically wrong thing in every OS after XP is those things. The '2 many useless services' & other problems R much less relevant, though still important. If iHad (& many others feel the same) the 'user interface experience' with 'Explorer' & 'save as' & 'start menu & taskbar' like XP it would B E Z 2 switch over & wouldn't B losing so much functionality, like 4 instance the super-retarded sabotage Micro$hit does like spreading out every menu 2 3X the size it needs 2 B so 'meant for tablet thumbs' nonsense, & hiding everything under mysterious icons & extra sub menus, etc. The idea of pretending that Windows 11 is 'meant for business' because it says 'enterprise' is pretty funny, given that N E 'real business' who tries 2 use that garbage is losing tons of $$$ in 'lost productivity' because of such a cumbersome OS design LOL!! U (or N E programmer types who can do what iMention) can reach me at 'balkanguy (at) live (dot) com' =)

    BTW: iNotice yor page here is still eating 7-20% CPU or so just sitting here, so let's C what other #JavaHell is wrecking your web site by turning off some naughty bits . . . ya OK it's sort of 'interactive' the dozen or so 'java bombs' U got on the page, but the 1 from 'Zone94' itself is OK = less than 2% CPU =)  Turned on the rest (except the stupid 'pile of random names blocking each other & the globe map out & eating CPU 2 make the site slow) garbage & the $ite is OK = under 2% CPU waste in Firefox 52 (where iDon't actually have 'ad blockers' but just 'media' type functions switched off, since JooToob wrecked things so it is slow on N E thing other than Chrome Based browsers N E waze (?) = my point here is U R harming yourself with that stupid map bull$hit.  It's not even working in a helpful way no matter how U can possibly try 2 defend it, because the map / globe itself is obscured by all the names, & the names obscure each other, so with all the bull$hit code running that bull$hit plugin eats CPU 2 do nothing at all other than harm your own web site = very strange.  Hey lot of people go out every weekend 2 poison themselves at bars with booze (or other things, even more often than that) so 'people make mistakes'.  Nothing against U so much = U made a mistake & U should fix it.  It's no big deal 2 me = just iKnow it's harming your visitors, same way it harms me = having 2 open your site in another browser because your 'globe krap' is $hitting all over my CPU eating it up so had 2 exit MyPal tab & open your BROKEN web site in Firefox 52 instead =)

    OOPS!  iNotice iPosted the WRONG info about my 'main favorite' partition arrangement.  iFound 16GB booters were a bit 2 'limiting' so they're all 32 now ~>
    For 32 Gig Boot Partition...
    64    Fat32    Spacer or 's'    FAT32    32    Delete spacer after others. (NewSpacer, etc.)
    32760    NTFS    Boot 1, 2, etc.    FAT32    4KB    Mark 'Active' (B4 New2, etc.) ~ Trying as 'FAT32' 2 C if eliminates 'LBA' problem
    525000    NTFS    Data 1 A, etc.    Fat32    4KB (4 New2, etc.) ~ NOTE: Size does not give option for 'FAT32' when formating via 'Windows Disk Managent').
    Rest    NTFS    Data 1 B    FAT32    16KB    All remaining space 13662 (4B New2, etc.)

    Note: Most of the programs iUze R 'portables' on N E of the many random '32GB Boot Partitions', & iLabel it 'Z' so all my shortcuts 2 these 'Z things' werk no matter wat booter iUze = just label them 'Z' in the 'WinDoze Di$k Manager'.  I call the partition 'Z Apps' =)  & iDo (lately) the same sort of thing with 'virtual machines = currenlty dumping them into my 500+ GB 'NTFS Cache' partition, 'koz lot of those 'virtual OS images' R bigger than 4GB so FAT32 more 'hazardous', but some VM 'players' let U split them into smaller files = I'm not an expert yet on that stuff =P  Note, these R relevant 'partition breaks' 4 all U guyz 'koz other sizes tend 2 B more 'problemattic' in matching up the 'advanced format clusters' across multiple partitions.  The others iUze sometimez R ~>

    Size    Pass 1    Name        Pass 2    Cluster    Note
    64    Fat32    Spacer or 's'    FAT32    32    Delete spacer after others.
    16382    NTFS    Boot 1, 2, etc.    FAT32    4KB    Mark 'Active'
    525000    NTFS    Data 1 A, etc.    Fat32    4KB
    Rest    NTFS    Data 1 B    FAT32    16KB    All remaining space 1366286

    And . . .
    WORKS! (J10 & J11 Tests) ~>
    64 = FAT32 Spacer
    65518 = NTFS Booter (format to 4KB cluster size) Remember to set this partition to 'Active' or will not boot! =)
    525000 = NTFS data (format to 4KB FAT32 after)
    Rest = NTFS large data (format to 16KB FAT32 after) ( = 1317150 with 2TB Samsung HD204UI)
    Still aligned after deleting 'spacer' in front, & formatting all partitions in FAT32
    Run 'Veronica' tests on these big Samsungs AFTER you have moved stuff)

    Note: Veronica iz AW ZOM! =D iMean 'Victoria' = #SorryBabe LOL ~>

    HAY Mr. Ramsey iShooda $ed thiz LawnEggo, bot kanU plz mod 11 so kan run frum FAT32 partition? =)  iAlwaze set XP 2 do that, bot 7+ pretends '#NotPossible' = HAHAHAHA  Like #UCant make a FAT32 partition bigger than 32GB, or run multi-terabyte stuff on 'old junk' mobos (never mind the 'bit addressing haz' like 'drive overlay' boot loader thengz =))  N E waze, my point iz it'z surely doable, just as N E thing with 'code', & if some 'esoteric linking structure' is an 'obstacle' it's E Z 2 work around with some type of 'mirroring' & 'cache' arrangement 2 get essentially the same functionality, but with infinitely MORE stability AND security AND speed because running on FAT32 instead of ridiculous index hell garbage like NTFS, that takes (literally) over 10X longer 2 'chkdsk' when (not 'if') there is a 'bad shutdown' or other 'errors' = #SOLame =P

    My main PC is about 24 terabytes, across 6 drives (sometimes more) & almost all of it is FAT32.  It's not that I am 'against' bigger drives but still cheaper 2 get 'smaller' 1's, & found some that R quite reliable.  Seagate is the worst, & WD not much better than that.  iAvoid both = but yeah with freeware tools like 'FAT32Format' U kan make really big FAT32 partitions even with tiny cluster sizes, tho no point going B Lo 4KB, 'koz wat U gain in less 'slack waste' U lose in 'increased file allocation table size', generally speaking, with a mix of 'many tiny files'.  I've probably tested this more than N E 1, as I'm 'retro' like that, & it's interesting where it 'breaks', like the size limits of different cluster size & partition size combinations with FAT32, & of course the 'advanced format alignment' stuff that's necessary 2.  Interesting stuff.  Here R $um Lynx 4 y'all ~>
    Fat32Format utility ~>
    http://ridgecrop.co.uk/guiformat.htm

    Download (fool doesn't have a simple text link LOL) ~>
    http://ridgecrop.co.uk/guiformat.exe

    Disk Alignment Check (2 B sure U don't have 'overlapping sectors' or watevz) ~>
    https://download.cnet.com/disk-alignment-test/3000-18512_4-75795945.html

    = Wat kan happen iz wen U hav a 'bad shutdown' or something if U got things 'sharing clusters' or something the corruption in something that was 'open' which is 'a lesser big deal' can damage things that R 'offline' like U didn't even know were 'attached' = kind of like those horrible old digital audio recorders from Tascam that would constantly read & delete tracks while recording, then re-combine with new material & 'multiplex' it into a new single 'track' because not enough 'bandwidth' in the head design 2 keep them 'separated & secure' =P  Don't Do It!  NOOO! =;-O

    Most of my drives R formatted like this, with a 64 megabyte 'spacer' in front 2 'align' the 'advanced format clusters' so when using backup software like 'DriveImage XML' every boot partition on any drive iDo (regardless of brand or size) is EXACTLY IDENTICAL in size so totally 'modular' in terms of 'Swap & Go' convenience =)  A 2TB drive example ~>
    Size    Pass 1    Name        Pass 2    Cluster    Note
    64    Fat32    Spacer or 's'    FAT32    32    Delete spacer after others.
    16382    NTFS    Boot 1, 2, etc.    FAT32    4KB    Mark 'Active'
    525000    NTFS    Data 1 A, etc.    Fat32    4KB
    Rest    NTFS    Data 1 B    FAT32    16KB    All remaining space 1366286

    Sometimes (only when absolutely necessary) iWill later format a partition in NTFS if iHav big files (over 4GB) iNeed 2 put there.  Across all my 'full alphabet' of partitions, only a couple R NTFS, because it's absolute krap, but 'required' sometimes =P  Yes EXFat also werx, but lot of 'slack waste' koz forces 32 bit clusters & also won't let U access until chkdsk it if there R N E errorz =P  + on top of that not so supported by 'drive recovery softwares' if U get a #BigCrash or $umThen = so GR8 2 always BACK UP ANYTHING U WOULD H8 2 LOSE =)  iDon't use 'RAID' or N E of that = just mirror partitions, & since they're all the same set of 3 different sizes (mostly), can dump them like leggos & add 2 a text file 'map' iKeep around.  N E time a drive fails (& they do sometimes no matter how GR8 the brand or model) U can then just go 2 the 'map' & restore the 'missing partitions' 2 wherever, & U don't need 2 use 'DriveImageXML 4 that, but simple stuff like 'FastCopy' R fine ~>
    https://fastcopy.jp/

    iDon't really trust 'sync' toolz, + not usually much faster than just 'mirror it all' N E waze ~>
    https://portableapps.com/apps/utilities/freefilesync-portable

    When mirroring, do it 2 an 'empty' or 'extra' space, not ever so U R in a situation with only ONE copy of something important.  In other words, if version 'A' of a partition has changed enough U want 2 overwrite version 'B' of the same partition (on some other drive), don't overwrite 'B', but mirror 'A' to some other 'no longer needed at all' partition area, so then while U R copying, even if 'A' fails, U still have 'B' around 2 'restore' from =)  Then after your backup of 'A' is done & checked 2 match sizes numbers & stuff in 'properties', U can delete 'B' from elsewhere & U still have (always) at least 2 complete copies in case 1 fails @ N E time =8^)  A disadvantage with 'RAID' or whatever is (4 example) if U hav sum kind ov 'incident' in 'the rack' or whatever, with physically separated drives over on a shelf someplace, it doesn't even matter.  U can just mirror them all 2 whatever else & U R up & running again E Z =D

    iUze thiz theng 4 BakUpz = Werx A TREET! =D ~>
    https://www.runtime.org/driveimage-xml.htm

    People, no point 'fiddling with configurations' if U got probz.  Just ERASE yor $hit & replace the OS partition in MINUTES, instead of days or weeks or something 'troubleshooting issues' = LOL!!  N E thing that iThink might take more than a half hour 2 fix, iJust say 'fuk it' & boot from a different drive & dump a 'Freshly Awesome' backup there 2 'start over (without losing N E of my other #LatestGreatest Tweex =D  Y'all don't jozt hav 1 boot drive do U?  Time 2 #LevelUp? =)  & no, 'multiple OS on single boot partition' is WAAAY mor flakey = like if the 'loader' area getz messed, yor fukd =P  DriveImageXML Iz Tha $hit! =D

    Mr. Ramsey wat iz unique or better about the 'Team' version? iCan't find N E relevant details about that on joogle =P  All the 'N' versions R pointless = just subtract media features & stuff (which, since the thing is already so ABSURDLY bloated may as well keep 4 'compatibility' =) ~>
    https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/media-feature-pack-list-for-windows-n-editions-c1c6fffa-d052-8338-7a79-a4bb980a700a

    Everything below 'Enterprise' like 'Pro' & 'Home' & stuff is just crippled different ways by removing things?  Or do they also maybe ADD N E thing that 'Enterprise' does NOT have??  IoT Enterprise is just a crippled fewer-feature version of Enterprise 2 simplify 'factory production equipment' (as if they don't use XP instead =)) ~>
    https://irontech-group.com/what-is-windows-iot-its-advantages-and-comparison-with-windows-embedded-and-windows-pro/

    & Windows 11 Enterprise multi-session / Virtual Desktops = Win 11 with different 'licensing' arrangement so U don't have 2 buy more licenses 4 the 'install' on the physical hardware but pay instead individual 'Virtual OS image' license fees 2 the 'Azure' cloud (somebody else's computer ~ @ M$, $o they can 'cancel' U N E time, at N E whim, & also charge U 2 infinity & beyond every month instead of just once like an 'install CD'? LOL =))  So if U want 2 run 'virtual machines' on 'Hyper V' through 'Azure' & pay their fee$ 4ever U can do that, or just run VMWare or VirtualBox & do essentially the same thing?? =;-o  Curious . . . + U know the performance will B much worse than 'native on hardware' = so also kind of pointless.  As cheap as machines R with all the used stuff around & even new it's silly 2 go 'virtual' instead of individual PCs 4 each 'employee' or whatever, & U can still 'remote manage' them =)  The point of 'virtualization' 4 people like me 4 instance is just 2 have tools available 2 run more kinds of software.  U can even 'remote desktop' 4 FREE into Windows XP & others, so strange people go along with 'Azure $ubscription Rape' instead =))  Funny stuff = 'I want my OS iPaid 2 install 2 not even work unless iAlzo buy an infinity repeat $ubscription bill every month 2 'Azure' over at Micro$cam so iCan pay 4 the OS 10,000X instead of just once when iInstall it on the PC in the 1'st place = HAHAHAHA  How very 'latest greatest trendy modern' LOL

    Funny how Micro$hit doesn't even list everything they make N E where with a convenient simple, quick & E Z 'grid spread sheet' type 'table' so we can easily compare them all =P  Like they say (if U dig into it) that Windows 7 'Enterprise' has a bit more features than 'Ultimate', but when trying out the 'Zyzoom / Xpristo' thing noticed wouldn't 'auto-license' the 'Enterprised' & had 2 do with 'KMS', which seems 'flakey', as their 'Ultimate' version frum B 4 is very stable so 'Y try 2 fix what ain't broke', + iDoubt there R N E 'important programs' that 'DEMAND' 'Enterprise' version 2 run instead of OK with 'Ultimate' = so pointless 2 get 'Enterprise iGez.  The only function of N E Micro$hit OS past XP is just 'program compatibility.  All the 'feature set' & 'interface' is infinitely worse.  The couple exceptions R 'APO' (sound mixer plugin support) & 'Desktop Sync' (avoids video tearing).  Everything else about it is absolute $hit, & Windows 11 is even WORSE!  But thanx 4 posting them so we have something 2 'run in the background' 2 get those 3'rd party 'programs' we actually want 2 try working =)

    Would B nice 2 just somehow 'hide' the Windows 11 / 10 / 7 'interface' type stuff so XP could just 'call on what is needed' =D  Better yet, the same thing but running on top of DOS ( = way faster) like 'Windows 98' but with support 4 stuff like QTTabBar & 'XP / 7 / 10 / 11' programs =D There's a project 'Windows 98 Kernel EX' (Kernel Extensions iGez) that tries 2 do some of that, but a lot of the 'plugins' R missing.  Wood B GR8 2 C U Mr. Ramsey or whoever 2 put it all in 1 spot as a simple 'click & go' single download 2 hav 'the Ultimate Windows 98 Ever' =) ~>

      @Hoodini It's best 2 never even concern yourself with 'labels' like 'HDR standards' as if it is something U 'must adhere 2', because all that matters is whether it looks REALISTIC, so if it is 'so-called HDR' & seems '2 dark' (or whatever else U don't like) just tweak things so it looks NATURAL.  'HDR' is just another bull$hit 'word salad marketing slogan' 2 $ell mor krap, like 'black levels', as if going outside at night there is no detail, & dark gray is something 'bad'.  The new 'standard' in 'HDR content' I C N E where @ $hops & whatever is so ridiculously 'Japanese Block Print Looking' it's an absolute joke = nothing realistic about it = old boxy tube TVs looked way better = just smaller.  All that matters is what YOU like 2 C.  Does it 'transport U into the scene' like 'looking through a window'?  This may B 'HDR-ish' ~>

      @Hoodini BTW: I used 2 do fancy home theater systems '4 the rich & famous' & blabla = nobody cares if it's 'HDR' or whatever else, so long as the RESULT is nice =)  People into 'standards compliance' R the 'neurotic' sorts fishing 4 something 2 bich about, like their super-expensive amp doesn't match the meters exactly within a few millimeters so want it 'serviced', then go back there after checking & it's just variation in the speakers themselves drawing more on 1 side so pops up a little = LOL  These speakers iMade sound as good or better than most stuff over $20,000, but only cost less than $300 per pair 2 make, because they R 'function-based' designs rather than 'artistic furniture' as the goal ~>

      Note: Inside the damping is asymetric 2 avoid 'ringing' (where 'enclosure resonances' can B more 'problematic' in tubes than 'boxes').  ALL 'box speakers' R inferior, because they can flex.  Even a 'cheap cardboard tube' is stronger, as sound goes, because 'nowhere 2 move' =)  It's like if some alien visited Earth  found everybody driving around on square wheels = box shapes make NO sense when dealing with pressure = simply inferior 2 #Toobz! =)

      IF U R running Windows 7 or later Firefox is way better because more addon options 4 it yes?  I personally wouln't ever bother learning how 2 optimize 'Brave' as since it is so artificially limiting in OS support it's pointless, unless it has something really better about it that Firefox can't do (with the right addons).  4 example, iMod Firexox so it disables all JooToob adz, so no 'interruptions', + it's totally portable, unlike Chrome which is deliberately designed 2 sabotage moving it 2 another machine unless U sign up 4 their 'cloud tracking' bull$hit 'account' sync game =P  When a person learns about Firefox there is lots more support 2 draw on 2.  It's really the only game in town, as a 'main' browser goes = can B made completely portable, & renders YouTube better than the others.  Also U will get more speed (can player bigger videos without hickups & other problems) better on 32 bit, & also if the OS is 32 bit that helps 2, & yes I tried different combinations, B it 32 or 64 bit Firefox on 32 or 64 bit Windows 7.  32 bit Firefox on 32 bit 7 was smoother, faster, etc.  64 bit is bull$hit, like 'HDR' or 'THX' = LOL!!

      @Hoodini U will get better performance by running 32 bit Firefox on 32 (or even 64) bit Windows 7.  Brave is a 64 bit browser with (currently) no 32 bit version available, & 32 bit stuff is faster than 64 bit (smaller, & less overhead, etc.).  64 bit is a 'marketing word salad $cam' 2 $ell more bull$hit people don't need, usually HARMING performance.  Not 'trolling' here = just facts if 'performance' is your goal, rather than being 'trendy' & 'up to date' with 'the latest greatest' #TrainWreck =))  A day old donut is better 4 lunch than a fresh steaming bowl of dog poop =P  Newer doesn't mean 'better'.

    https://download.cnet.com/disk-alignment-test/3000-18512_4-75795945.html
    = SUPER-important proof how the 64 megabyte 'spacer' partition right up front helps out, 'koz if yor $hit ain't on the 'sector boundaries' but 'overlapping' (misaligned) U will get lots of 'data corruption' if there R errors someplace, bleeding over into other random files because they share the same 'zones' = kind of like those oddball digital audio recorders from Tascam (which need new heads like very thousand hours LOL) would DELETE adjacent audio trax 2 re-record them BOTH 'multiplexed' or whatever 2 sav physical space on tape = lame =P  & yes iExperienced this ma'self where some random 'shutdown error' not only wrecked just a few things (if that) that iKnew were 'open', but many OTHER things that iWasn't even working on, jozt koz 'not aligned' & 'sharing zones' with 'dormant' $hit =(  O'BTW, speaking of 'backups & fault tolerance' blabla, this blob suggests 'Z RAID' as even better than 'BTRFS' koz mor 'integrity chex' & blabla ~>

    = Reminds me of that Jabba The Hut character from Star Wars, with the goo threads on his lips & stuff = WTF =))  All that 'intelligence' & can't figure out how 2 control his own mouth? LOL ~>
    https://justpaste.it/39qfa

    Alzo he men tonz how tho 'BTRFS' iz mor flexy in 'per-file protection options' ZFS is mor 'complete' in it's 'protections' because of mor 'checking' of things & watever ~ bot 2 avoid 'hardware RAID' koz way inferior 2 either =P

    N E waze, so far iAlways just make stuff on 'individual pairs', like each drive has it's 'mirror', which isn't even 'online' = just hook it up 'whenever' after made many 'important changes' & copy the entire drive over 2 it's 'replacement' in case 1 breaks.  It's like 'RAID Zero' but actually MORE secure because no 'striping' bull$hit & can use 'recovery' utilities E Z 2 get back all that FAT32 treasure even when they fail sometimes ~ long az U avoid Seagate & WD that is = OMG wat trash =P  Not saying those won't work but iHav my faves & most last '4ever' (name withheld 2 keep the used prices cheap on Fleabay =)  Joz $ayin' = U don't even need 'redundancy' if U R using RELIABLE drives, not that it isn't 'risky' = 'Livin On The Edge' =;-o

    When backing up drives 'by hand' like attaching the same style drive 2 'mirror' something, don't use the backup drive as yor destination! =;-o Then if the source drive dies U might lose everything. U could of course use some kind of 'updater' program like 'FastCopy' but it's way slower than just using an EMPTY drive (or 'matching empty partitions') 2 throw them onto, & then after it completes U can use the 'extra' (3'rd) drive with the same stuff as the destination 4 something else. This way at all times there R at least 2 complete copies of all yor data, 'koz 'everything dies sooner or L8R' yano =;-o All forms of 'RAID' R inferior 2 this approach 4 'security' except in how they can update continuously instead of just 'periodic snap shots'. Like when iHave a problem with the OS or something, if it's going 2 take me more than 30 minutes or so 2 fix, iJust go 'fuk it' & boot from another (mirrored) boot partition, &/or throw a backup from DriveImage XML into it 2 replace the 'buggy' thing. This is an important tip 4 all yor users & fans so they can not have 2 worry about destroying their OS or experimenting, so long as they make a backup of the 'favorite working setup' =) ~>
    https://www.runtime.org/driveimage-xml.htm

    Mirroring drives iUse 'FastCopy' = U can literally just 'select all' in the drive (except 'shared' bull$hit like 'system volume information' or whatever on NTFS partitions) & it will (hours later) complete without errors after throwing millions of files onto the backup drive ~>
    https://fastcopy.jp/
    Whenever moving lots of files it's always best 2 use that 'context menu' item utility thingy koz' doesn't leak RAM & krap out other ways like Micro$hit purposely sabotaged Windows Explorer 2 fail. Nothing is perfect of course, & no1 is forcing U 2 copy using 'Explorer' instead of 'FastCopy', which solves that problem =) It's 1 of the 1'st things 2 install on N E WinBlow$ $etup, along with '7Zip' & (my favorite =) MPC! =D Tho' really U don't need even 'install' that = just AC3Filter & FFDShow, as MPC is 'portable-able' =;-o ~>

    1) DHCP Client = internet

      @Dood McMan It always depends on what people use their computer for. You can turn off the services you think you don't need and see if the functionally of your Windows is still okay for the work you do.

      I also think it's best for you to move on to "Linux Mint" instead of staying in an toxic relationship with Windows. The fact is that in the future Microsoft will force more and more people to be slaves to their cloud system and starts scanning you computer for XYZ files that the states don't allow you to have.

      @Ramsey U R pretending not 2 understand my request =)  I never said 'minimizing services 2 the bare minimum will B perfect 4 everybody'.  It is simply the best for streamlining, so people can add what they actually DO need as they go, & I even gave examples, like how iEnable 'DCOM launcher' thingy when I want 2 use 'disk manager', but that's pretty much it.  iNever print N E thing out, so if U R into getting 'ink raped' by 'the printer market' that's up 2 'whoever' =))  Since U R so WAAAAY $marter than me @ all the 'programmy' stuff like 'windows configuration', U R the iDeel guy 2 ask what R the BARE MINIMUM services required so 7 will not crash all by itself.  iGave U a precise example 4 Windows XP, so what is the list 4 11? =)  & as 4 the bull$hit that is Lin-Hell, just because everything after XP is just getting infinitely WORSE in USABILITY does not mean it is not NECESSARY 4 COMPATIBILITY! =;-o

      Going 2 literal joke masochist nonsense 'protest OS' junk like Linux Mint is the exact opposite of a solution, as it is even LESS compatible with the SOFTWARE that iWant 2 use, & that is the same reason everybody else will continue using Windows.  It's not about 'how bad windows is', at all.  It's about the fact no matter how U slice it, there is no choice but 2 use it 4 doing actual work, & that is not going 2 change.  The trick is 2 minimize the DAMAGE it does 2 your 'work flow', like 4 instance something as simple as minimizing the spacing between lines in the explorer list so U R not having 2 scroll around 4ever 2 find $hit LOL  So my point is, instead of just cynically spewing jokes like 'Just Use Linux Mint', U should focus on solving the problem(s) of Windows, starting with PERMANENTLY DISABLING ALL UPDATES BY DEFAULT, & of course including a 'iWant 2 totally destroy my machine by enabling that bull$hit' button if they R really that #FullRetard about their pretended '$ecurity' needs (meanwhile all the ATM machines on Earth run on XP, pretty much LOL)

      iGave U some specific suggestions how 2 improve things, & am happy 2 pay 4 it 2, especially 2 create product$ 2 address fixing some of the crippleware damage Micro$hit keeps doing = so U should really C it as a GIFT & A BLESSING rather than a 'toxic relationship'.  They created the NEED 4 $OLUTIONS that U Kan Provide! =D  Like the 'portablize the Windows XP Explorer with QTTabBar' thing (which iz alzo GR8 4 'web developers' so they can have through the same method multiple versions of 'Internet Exploiter' 2 test their page renders with, instead of 'guessing' or having 2 'trust the cloud' emulators LOL =))  I've posted the photo B 4 but U get the idea = the same $hit they do 2 'portable-ize' browsers U could use 2 make Internet Explorer portable, & by extension the Windows Explorer, & by that extension QTTabBar & so on =D  U can reach me at 'balkanguy (at) live (dot) com'.

      Think of it like mushrooms.  As iHav $ed B 4 = that's not dirt U R washing off.  They grow them on literal $hit.  Windows is the $hit, & U can have a bountiful harvest of benefits because of that very $abotage they R trying 2 do 2 us all, by creating 'tweaks' U can $ell, & so on.  Classic Shell is a GR8 example = it is free, but they could certainly $ell it if they wanted 2, & it would B profitable 4 them, but they just don't care about the $.  iGez the 'developers' make enough N E way.  Maybe that's Yor $ituation 2 = U don't care about the $, but iAm trying 2 show U then how it may interest U as a 'pet project' either way 2 help BENEFIT us all & 'Help Build A More Beautiful World' =D  Nature is dirty & U never get exactly what U want.  Windows is $hit, & Linux is EVEN WORSE, but with MODIFICATION Windows can B much BETTER than it is, & it is not something that is 2 complicated 4 1 guy or a small group 2 do.  That 'Portableapps' guy is definitely 1 of many iWill B contacting about these ideas, but Y not go 2 the $ource 1'st?  U & yor 'integral' could incorporate it right in the 'installer'? =)

      @Ramsey BTW: Also note iNever suggested U minimize all the services by default in your installer, but provide TEMPLATES 4 'minimum services' people can select if they WANT that sort of 'streamlining' =)  It's as simple as including the 'pserv.cpl' program in the thing same way U put 7Zip & MPC in there =D  & note the location of the templates, like with a shortcut = 'Streamlined for maximum performance' & maybe another with 'printing & wireless' & a few other 'common' features.  Most $ervices R just garbage 2 deliberately eat RAM & CPU & fuk up the computer so Micro$cam can keep pretending people need 'upgrades' not only in OS but hardware 2, which is part of the 'partners in crime' relationship they have with PC vendors = 'Thanx Mr. Gate$ 4 making the peasants think they need a quad core & 8 gigs of RAM 2 check their E-Mail' = LOL =))

      @Ramsey Oops sorry iMeen 'wat R tha bare minimum $ervices' 4 Win 11 2 run without crashing?  But yes 4 Win 7 2 would like 2 know that 2, if U do! =D  I'm guessing they R over 100 layers of bull$hit now?  All U need in XP is this ~>
      1) DHCP Client = internet
      2) Event Log = just 2 avoid 'shut down hanging' (bug)
      3) Plug And Play = Audio
      4) Windows Audio = as above
      5) Remote Procedure Call (RPC) = runs 'everything' (pretty much =)
      = iNvur $ed 'make that the default 4 every1' or 'it's the perfect setup 4 everything' & blabla.  iWoz very specific = a question directly 2 U what exactly is REQUIRED 2 keep the OS running reliably.  Even my list above, if U don't need sound, or internet, U basically just need RPC (ONE 'service') running, as 'event log' switched off just makes shutdown slower =P

      Mr. Ramsey, if U don't know or not interested 2 find out, U should just say that, but it is a mistake, because U SHOULD want 2 know & also use that 'discovery' 2 help improve the OPTIONS in Windows 11 =)  With less 're$ources' nece$$ary, people can have a faster & more reliable $ystem while $imultaneously $AVING $$$ =D  Etz a reel 'WIN-WIN!' U C? =;-)  U can reach me at 'balkanguy (at) live (dot) com'.  Please send the 'services list' or a 'pserv.cpl' template iCan apply 2 WinDoze 11 2 streamline it in a similar way. = all iNeed is sound & internet.  All the other 'services' R just pure bull$hit.  Again, iAm not saying 'that is the perfect setup 4 everybody no matter what', same way lots of people mail U different questions about specific things.  U can create various 'templates' 4 people 2, which U can add 2 your 'windows installers' like U put 7Zip & MPC-HC (based on my ideas =) in there & so on = like 'click here 2 streamline your PC! =D  There can B options like ~>
      ~ Bare minimum (no sound or networking, etc.)
      ~ + sound
      ~ + networking
      ~ + wireless networking 2! =)
      ~ + all that above AND printing! =D
      Anzo awn =;-o  Note even the program itself gives tips what the different services do by hovering & right clicking items & stuff =) ~>

      @Ramsey iAccidentally didn't post the full comment about services. Here is the rest ~>

      @Ramsey
      BTW: 1 thing iAm absolutely certain about is Linux will never B a popular operating system.  It's function, from the ground up, in every conceivable release & version, is 2 B hell on Earth 2 configure & manage 2 $ell 'Cu$tomer $upport $ervices' = kind of like what (((Oracle))) do with 'VirtualBox' deliberately crippling versions so they perform even worse than older stuff, 2 try & force people 2 change 2 a different set of 'new latest greatest bugs' =))

      N E waze, an alternate option which is more likely iThink is people continuing 2 move more over 2 Apple stuff (which is like a 'Linux/BSD' that is actually designed 2 work instead of be non-stop headaches =))  LOL @ 'terminal windows & secret programmer alphabet soup codes' =P  LinHell (as iLike 2 call it =) is the 'pay U later' type joke of 'critical mass is just around the corner' & 'almost there' nonsense = a sick, twisted, sadistic joke 2 reel people in 2 abuse them with 'terminal windows' like literally 50 steps & dozens of codes just 2 get multiple monitor support working.  Linux, in all it's forms, ever, from now into eternity, will always B 'anti-user' this way.  It is the whole 'DNA' of 'the thing' =;-/

      I've been following it about 20 years & never moves even an inch toward better usability.  Sure they SAY they do, but 4 instance iTried 2 install 'Zorin' & it was a horror show compared 2 ANY version of Windows EVER, & 'Ghost BSD' & some others = just ridiculous, counter-intuitive design choices, specifically 2 'poop their own bed' = BIZARRE!

      Nature is dirty & U never get exactly what U want.  The most beautiful amazing $eXXXy gal is still full of poop, & they don't grow mushrooms on 'dirt', & yor nose is full of snot, & so on.  Operating $ystems R a 'process', not a '$olution' = they R always trying 2 fuk U up different ways, but like a mouse doesn't give up just because there R cats around, doesn't mean we 'Run 2 The Linux Hole & Starve' LOL  U gotta' get out there & #DoYorOwnTheng =D  Koz #YoraBozz anzo awn =;-o

      & also people will go more retro, same as U won't C most banks trying 2 'migrate' their ATM machines away from XP, because 'don't fix what ain't broke' & all that jazz (XP runs most of the world's ATM machines, & lots of other business & industrial applications 2), AND the 3'rd 'prong' being 'virtualization', like so they can run their 'krapple' AND WinBlow$ H8 or whatever other #CrippleWare = even 'streaming gaming', once they work out their 'network issues' better ~>

      = Just because Micro$hit & Krapintosh & Krapple & others want U 2 think U 'must' use their 'new dog vomit' version doesn't mean U hav 2, or that it will 'replace' others as 'the desktop standard'.  Companies trying 2 do actual work don't need 'tablet bull$hit' like 11 or 8, & 10 is also a joke compared 2 XP & 7, & with the 'back porting of modern web browsers' 2 XP, 7 becomes even less relevant 4 people who need their machines 4 making $ rather than just 'tapping around on their tablet' LOL  Just because 11 & 10 & 8 R a joke & 7 is inferior 2 XP also doesn't mean they R not useful though, as a COMPATIBILITY LAYER 2 bypass the MISTAKE of a lot of confused, foolish programmers who wrote their $oftware in a way that makes it hard 2 run directly on XP, which can B fixed, but they R stuck in 'trendy' mode, like people who shoot themselves up with poison as if the 'status points' R worth the risk ~>

      In other words, just because a lot of people R fools doesn't mean U should jump off the cliff with them.  There R many other options & U can B part of a bigger, better $olution =) ~>
