    It's a way to know if a PC with W11 is using secure boot and so on, after Microsoft has changed its mind and is putting W11 on all computers regardless of its initial requirements.
    In principle it's a good idea, but since it can be overridden it stays in the category of a sticking plaster.

    @clipper Si eso si.

    The build 25295 of Windows 11 that brings this improvement is already available for users linked to the Windows Insider program, for the rest it is not yet known when.

    Salu2.

    Honestly, "I have" three PCs.
    Two at work and mine at home (what else ?)
    The ones at work are one, a mini barebone that runs W XP because it's the one that controls the programs that are launched to the CNC and either the Siemens card or the sinumeric program are not compatible with more modern operating systems.
    The second PC is an amd3+ that is not compatible with W11 and has W10 pro
    And mine has W11 and honestly.
    I don't notice any improvement in W11 compared to the previous ones.
    If I notice something, it's because of the hardware that is duplicated from one to another, not because of the software.
    Regards.
    P.d it is very possible that when I remove the raid 0 from my PC I will return to W10.

    @cobito It is very good ?
    Although I have the feeling that it may be a message inherited from the code of previous versions, since in practice I have put a later date and it does not affect it at all. It responds perfectly and can be manipulated further without exploding or freezing.

    @defaultuser That's what I think, the message only pops up when you try to start the Player while the date is already past the year 2037 and it won't let you start it. But it has been proven that it still works after the deadline if it was open previously, it doesn't trigger a 2038 effect as such.

    Best regards!

    @clipper said in W10 & W11:

    Hello.
    I bought a legal key for W10 pro a while ago that never worked well (it doesn't let me authenticate)
    So, since I bought another m2 to compare performance, I thought about buying another key, which I hope will go better, the doubt is W10 or W11?
    Both are oem for a single PC.
    The equipment is
    CPU AMD 9 5800X
    GPU Sahppire rx5800 XT
    RAM 32 gs corsair
    Ssd three m2 crucial p5 of 500gs
    Configurations....
    The current one is raid 0 on ports 1/2
    I have to test performance without raid on port 1 (only one m2)
    Performance in raid 0 on three ports 1,2,3
    And the option of one m2 for the OS and a raid 0 for programs / games.

    From what I've read, W11 is better.
    Is that so,? Any experience?

    Regards

    I imagine that updates have already been released to correct the relevant problems, bugs, etc. With my asus tuf gaming f15 laptop, i7 11 gen, I had better performance with Windows 10 pro, than with Windows 11. But I didn't bother to optimize Windows 11, which I did with Windows 10. It's like everything, it depends on what needs you have, so you configure it that way. Hugs.

    @desvest De nada. I assumed you were using it over WiFi, so another router, even if it was from another company before, is also something you can try.
    The old ones usually work very well and don't cause any problems as they are basic, although they usually have the limitation of ports at 100 Mbps.

    @fassou I used the system symbol which is "secedit /configure /cfg %windir%\\inf\\defltbase.inf /db defltbase.sdb /verbose" with the help of this article. Also, run the DISM and SFC scan. After doing these methods completely, the problem was solved. Now I can access the power button perfectly.

    Monolithic Kernel
    \xa0
    A monolithic kernel is a framework of an operating system that has all the privileges to access input/output (I/O) devices, memory, hardware interrupts, and the CPU stack. Monolithic kernels tend to be larger (it is programmed in a non-modular way and can be of considerable size) than other kernels because they deal with many aspects of computer processing at the lowest level and therefore have to incorporate code that interacts with many devices, I/O and interrupt channels, and other hardware operators.

    This form of kernel is the basis for Linux, Unix, MS-DOS, and Mac OS. Newer operating systems generally use a hybrid kernel to allow for easier maintenance and improvements to the operating system.

    All functional components of the kernel have access to all its internal data structures and routines. Therefore, an error in a routine could propagate to the entire system.

    The alternative is to have a microkernel structure, where functional parts are divided into separate units with strict communication mechanisms between them. The downside of microkernel systems is their poor performance due to the constant passing of messages between different services.

    Monolithic kernels retain full privilege access over the various components under their control. These include:

    • File systems
    • Inter-process communication
    • I/O and device management
    • Fundamental process management.
    • Hardware

    The reason newer kernel architectures, such as the microkernel or hybrid kernel design, are preferred is that the larger the kernel becomes, the more functions it must assume. This makes the code cumbersome and slower to load. Another drawback of the monolithic kernel design is that the kernel code must be modified to add features, correct errors, etc. This can mean a complete update of the operating system, which is more costly.

    Microkernel
    \xa0

    A microkernel (microkernel or μkernel) is a type of operating system kernel that provides a set of minimal primitives or system calls to implement basic services, such as address spaces, communication between processes, and basic scheduling.
    All other services (memory management, file system, I/O operations, etc.), which are generally provided by the kernel, run as user-space server processes.
    Only the absolutely essential functions of the operating system kernel should remain in the microkernel.
    Some tasks of the microkernel:

    • Handling interruptions in the system, from physical devices.
    • Handles processor exceptions.
    • Provides support for recovering a system with some power failure failure.

    The main advantages of its use are the reduction of complexity, the decentralization of failures, and the ease of creating and debugging device drivers, which improves fault tolerance and elevates portability between hardware platforms.

    Some operating systems with microkernels:

    • AIX
    • AmigaOS
    • Amoeba
    • Minix
    • Hurd
    • MorphOS
    • L4
    • Netkernel
    • RaOS
    • RadiOS
    • ChorusOS
    • QNX
    • SO3
    • Symbian
    • SymbOS
    • Zircon
    • AmayaOS
    • RedoxOS

    Hybrid Kernel
    \xa0

    The hybrid kernel is an architecture that is based on a combination of the microkernel and monolithic kernel architectures. This kernel approach combines the speed and simpler design of the monolithic kernel with the modularity and security of execution of the microkernel.
    Basically, it is a microkernel that has some «non-essential» code in kernel space, so that it runs faster than it would if it were in user space.
    A hybrid kernel runs some services in kernel space to reduce the performance overhead of a traditional microkernel, while still running kernel code as user-space servers. For example, a hybrid kernel design may keep virtual file systems and bus controllers within the kernel and file system controllers and storage controllers as user-mode programs outside the kernel. Such a design maintains the performance and design principles of a monolithic kernel.
    Examples of OS with hybrid kernels

    • Microsoft Windows NT, used in all systems that use the Windows NT codebase
    • XNU (used in Mac OS X)
    • DragonFlyBSD
    • ReactOS

    @_Neptunno_ said in Windows 11 may not work on recent hardware:

    The truth is that I'm very lazy to deal with another new Windows, not for enthusiastic or home use but for work. With Win 10 I've already suffered its constant and problematic updates, in addition to its mania of changing things around to seem more “modern”. That's why this news makes me think that things will not only not improve but it will be more extra work to support users and companies.

    I suppose I'm getting older and I'm tired of dealing with a new Windows jajajaja

    I don't plan to change until a lot of time has passed, it gives me a lot of laziness honestly, and more so as it is being talked about at the beginning it usually gives a lot of trouble.

    That's an odd version! That means it's going to be a hated Windows. With that taskbar they've put on it, I think the level of hatred will reach at least that of Windows ME. Fortunately, they still haven't put an expiration date on Windows 10.

    The comparison is a bit weak. It doesn't indicate how it measured the power, what equipment it has, or anything. In the comments it seems to say that it uses powertop. I can't think of a worse way to measure power, that leaves out half the hardware. It's also not the same to have an Nvidia, Amd or Intel gpu. And within those three there is also a difference between generations and drivers. It should have specified the hardware details, the version of the drivers and have used a physical wattmeter that measures the power of the complete equipment. And to make it complete, it should have done a full cycle to the battery with each distro and measured the time it takes to discharge.

    It seems to me a somewhat gratuitous gesture. Microsoft has long seen that the market share of each operating system remains more or less constant over time and I believe it is the main reason why Windows 10 has remained the definitive Windows, even though they are going to release a rehashed version called Windows 11. Why would they innovate if they are going to continue to push licenses on almost all PCs that are sold? Windows 11 is a joke to artificially make PCs with Windows 10 obsolete and the worst part is that people will swallow it and will pull out their wallets just to see a renewed look.

    What version of Xubuntu are you using? It seems like a reader that's a few years old already. Check if it appears in the list when you run lsusb in the console.
