What's the difference between windows 11 and windows 10? I Just installed it on my wife PC. Only thing changed to me is where the stuff is located, that's about it. It is too a scam. It's just coated differently, that's about it. I used Rufus app to bypass all the PC requirements during installation. Huge scam to buy a new PC for nothing.
