Try this one, it looks the same as the original but points to ZDnet not the lounge itself.

Saw this earlier, the link did work then. I am very interested in getting embedded programming systems working (also being the Dinosaur, I know ISA ports!) it seems there is talk of a method of white listing devices which could make my life easier BUT Admin Rights!

I suspect that will make the secure computer admins at my last job happy. Rogue USB drives were a major concern; and being able to easily disable them directly should be a major win. I'm not sure if they had some sort of kludged setup to try and stop them, or just made do with putting a "User XXX was very naughty" entry in the logs (reviewed weekly) to deal with it after the fact.

They rolled it out where I work. I think they used a group policy to exempt devices that needed USB access for their daily work.
I think they were mostly worried about office workers taking company data.

Yes. Where I work, you can't write to USB devices by default - you need to get special dispensation.

I installed 11 last weekend. From the outset Edge was unstable. It will at random cause the screen to flash partly off, then the screen went completely black for 5 or so seconds before it flickered back to life.
Then today - with Win 11 barely a week old - there was a massive update from Microsoft. I had hopes MS had fixed the Edge issue, but I should have known better.
I have a Macrium image of my last Win 10 install. I am sorely tempted to spend 5 minutes and go back to ten.

same here, my plan is a W11 laptop sometime in the next ~4-8 months that I can use as a secondary system to figure it out, and then W11 on my new desktop in a year or two when I build it.

Sounds like your display driver microsoft has supplied may not be ready for your device.
I would look on the display adapter type manufacture's web site for a win 11 driver.

Rolling back using a Macrium image is much quicker and can be done at any time. It typically takes 5 minutes or so.

Clean install or upgrade? I ask because historically the best way to move to a new version of Windows is via a clean install, including deleting the partition table.

In my experience it's true with Debian and Ubuntu too.

I use diskpart to "clean" the systems drive. That removes everything from the drive - all partitions and even the type of drive (gpt or mbr) then I convert the drive to gpt but do not create partitions. Then I do a clean install on the gpt drive. Windows will create the necessary partitions as part of the install.

As a bleeding edge user you'll have to expect the occasional massive update.
How else can they fix the unstable Edge issues?
