Windows 10

If you have updated to Windows 11 from Windows 10, the below steps will help you to clean leftovers in your system and make it close enough to the performance known from the 10th edition.

If you planning (or did) to install Windows 11 from an official ISO, make sure that you using always the latest one. At the time of writing this text, the ISO available is the 2nd since the system has been presented to the world (64v1).

Recently I came across a problem where a freshly installed Windows wouldn’t download updates.

The search for updates took forever or, if they did appear, they were stuck in the download queue (Pending Download) and there was no way to convince them to download. Clicking the Download button did nothing. Even the tried and tested methods of resetting the Windows Update service didn’t help.

Therefore, I started looking for another solution and that’s how I came across the update method using PowerShell.

Each of us would like to use the computer for as long as possible, so that the money invested in it would pay off in time. Therefore, a large number of people would also like to use the latest system from Microsoft, which is Windows 11.

Microsoft has introduced a certain barrier when it comes to what equipment will be able to freely run Windows 11.

In September 2018, I wrote a few words about Windows Defender, as my default antivirus for Windows 10. It’s been a few years since I’ve used it at work (as well as the rest of the people in the company). I recommend Microsoft’s default solution built into Windows 10/11 to anyone I help with their computer.

So I decided to check if Windows Defender is still a solution worth recommending. After all, it’s free, and you have to pay for all the others, so what’s the catch?

Half jokingly, half seriously. I recently discovered what was eating up my disk space on my work computer.

Most of us have certainly heard about the requirements for Windows 11, when it comes to hardware. A large number of users were disappointed, checking whether they will be able to update their hardware to the latest system from Microsoft. But… how it is not possible, if it is!

Even though Windows 10 has settled in on our computers, Microsoft has prepared a real surprise for us — Windows 11. In addition, it announced that the update will be free — well, almost.
