I use Windows 11, but from necessity not choice.
I do not like what Microsoft has become, how it has ruined what used to be its own effective products, and its business models.
Unfortunately I do not know enough about operating-systems to be safe trying to replace the Mickeysoft with A.N.Other, and I use third-party software and its facilities written to work only in Windows.
I have not been locked out by Microsoft, to which I was introduced in its MS-DOS days, but have up-dated my system for security even though each up-date since WIN7 brings more gimmicks, more needless difficulty and less value.
(I refuse to call it "up-grade" because it isn't. It's a "down-grade".)
