thats what i done but made a iso from there as back up

you could in theory just make an iso from the Windows BT folder as you are upgrading

most laptops have cameras anyway now so they are all vulnerable to some sort of hack or privacy issue. On my Google Hub Max I simply fitted a stick on slider and if I had a laptop I would simply do the same as a matter of course anyway

all done here all working fine :)

Interestingly Winver shows it as Version 21H2 (OS Build 22000.51) Not altogether surprising but it does make you wonder how much of this is actually Windows 11 and how much is just a new Shell on Windows 10 for Insiders to get a taste until it all progresses further

Start menu can be easily moved to the left.

Right click taskbar / taskbar settings / Taskbar behaviours/ and change centre to left

Avast keeps throwing wobblies . Just flagged Cortana. Again no shock and it is all new to it so uninstalled and sticking with Defender for now

Multi monitor taskbars are not working properly for me. Set to show open apps on taskbar where open as well as main taskbar but only shows on main

Having to use Display Fusion for my second screen taskbar. That feature not working is a productivity killer for me. I am sure it will soon be fixed though

for some reason browser spell checkers are not totally working dunno if it is related or not. Had to install Microsoft Editor to get full spell checking. No biggie

So just in case anyone is using this ( I am as main machine at present) and using Windows Defender as its AV just check it is enabled after a reboot as it has a tendency to disable itself

well obviously, it's a bug. I was just warning people as I forget to mention it here when I was putting up my other bug reports

For those annoyed with the Context Menu Show More Options time waster then use Shift F10 instead
