Nice job... I had better two first words...
The only reason on this one I got three.

Welp, if it wasn't for my friend liking a book series that has this in it...(I used to read it too ) I wouldn't have gotten it...

Modern C++ is ostensibly heavily template oriented and often involves a fair amount of metaprogramming.
And yet, I almost never see C++ code written this way outside of the STL headers.
I understand why, to a degree. It can be hard to read. But it's oh so powerful.
Where is all the modern C++ code?

Two things:
1. A lot of the STL is geared towards containers, which need to use templates.
2. Only weenies do metaprogramming, and there aren't many outside of those who work on standards and STL implementations.

Modern C++ is written by modern C++ programmers. We all date to the previous millennium.

Right next to the modern COBOL code.

Oh so powerful?
Except that it’s also unreadable to the person who wrote it after a week has passed and completely unmaintainable by anyone else for the same reason.
That makes it powerful- but not good.
If you can't laugh at yourself - ask me and I will do it for you.

I use it in GFX and can read it a almost year after I wrote it, some of which I've picked up after putting down for I don't know how many months.
You just have to get used to the thought process behind them.

What has your experience been? Does it require a clean install? If so, it is out of the question for me.

I did an upgrade from Windows 10 when it was available via Windows Update. I have had few issues, other than learning some new ways of doing certain things.
One caveat is that I don't have a complicated setup. I have several vintages of Visual Studio and an older version of Office. I use Thunderbird for email and Chrome for my browser.
I'm also not one of those who insists on tweaking Windows "because Microsoft doesn't know what they're doing", which then destabilizes the system and proves their point.

You could be using my PC! That's exactly my setup!

I also did an upgrade from Windows 10 and have had no problems with it to this point.

I'm still waiting to do a clean install - one of these days ... 
Mind you, I said that with XP, and Win 7, and Win 10, and that's not done yet either so I wouldn't hold your breath waiting.
No problems so far - it's OK, but some bits annoy, mostly taskbar related.

I've done it both ways - an upgrade on some machines and a clean install on others. Doing a clean install allows you to get rid of the cruft that inevitably collects on any computer, but I haven't noticed major differences in performance etc.

I upgraded from Windows 10. It was easy and didn't lead to upgrader's remorse. Other posts have mentioned the handful of things that are annoying with Windows 11, but I haven't found anything that is really annoying and not easily remedied. For all the vitriol that MSFT gets, I've found Windows 7, 10, and 11 to be excellent overall.

From my point of view, MS does an incredibly good job with upgrades and updates. Just think of the variety of target computers, it really works mostly very smoothly

upgraded 3 computers from 10 to 11.
no sweat, but be sure to upgrade drivers for video cards.

What about the fiasco involving the new interface for changing default file extension handlers?
How have you found that?
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.
