Oh so you’re bad at using computers. Got it. I can have windows 11 without telemetry in 10 minutes and with a local user profile instead of a Microsoft account. This argument about what you were able to do and how long it took you doesn’t make you look cool or smart. It makes you look like you have no idea what you’re doing.
He may have been trying to install it on a potato or on something atypical. I struggled to get a clean Windows 10 install on a system with an old ASUS motherboard using its RAID controller and AHCI. Support didn’t seem to understand the problem, but they were a good sounding board while I figured it out over 3 evenings. By contrast, Windows 11 took all of 10 minutes to install with Rufus on a modern system. Sometimes you just end up with a system configuration that isn’t quite supported out of the box by a given OS, and it takes some third party drivers and some intermediary configurations to get things to load before you can get things working properly.
Yeah I was writing software since before you were born.
I’ve written multiple times in excruciating detail what horrors it was to install windows 11, and how fucking easy it was with Linux. Not going to repeat that, check my post history. But to be clear, I know what I’m doing and any normal person ehmoyldnt even have been able to do this windows install.
It doesn’t make me look bad it makes Microsoft look like shit because that’s what it is
Cool story bro. You must be so good at computer yet you can’t install windows. Also very cool that you think you know how old I am or what my experience is. I can do either blindfolded and have been doing so for decades. It’s really not that impressive. This is low level IT shit. Let’s all stand and applaud this guy who can’t install windows. Lol
I’ve done IT professionally for over 25 years, currently working as a CTO, still get my hand dirty.
Yes,I know damn well what I’m doing and yes, the windows installer is absolute horse shit. If I have to do a tonne of internet searches to be able to find out why an installer isn’t working, your isntallei sucks. If then it turns out that the is taller isn’t working because Microsoft sabotaged their ISO file so that it can only be written by some windows tool, then your installer sucks.
If then I need to again do a tonne of searches in why your installer isn’t working, then your installer sucks. If then it turns out it’s because of some BIOS setting, which you couldn’t even tell me straight up, then yeah, your installer really really sucks.
If then the installation still takes another frigging hour with god knows howa y unholy clicks of no no no NO NO NO for commercials and ads and shit, THEN YOUR INSTALLER SUCKS.
And yeah, it took me a grand total of 7 hours to get this shit done, whereas Linux, including downloading and burning takes less than an hour.
There is no comparison, windows sucks. Always has, but windows 11? Come on, get your head out of your ass.

This actually happened to me before recently and all it took is one firmware setting. So frustrating.
