My brand new Windows 11 laptop went stuck with endless updates, it's a very well known issue of windows updates completed but not entirely, so you'll get the "applying updates" message over and over on each startup, lasting minutes.

Tried *EVERYTHING*, cleaning every update folder while booting in Windows Safe mode, SFC /scannow, all foul combinations of DISM I could possibly found online, nothing helped. After a week or so of trying everything, I decided to give the "Install in place" feature a go, and it worked.

I had heard a few bad things about Win 11, so I didn't upgrade and stayed with Win 10 and have not had any problems, my GSX2 and FSX still running fine.
By the way, Dell Computers will offer Win 10 as an optional operating system on their new built desktop computers with a credit to upgrade to Win 11. Don't know about laptops, but could be negotiated.

My laptop will have to stay with Windows 11, regardless of the fact I think Windows 10 was better (mostly from an UI point of view), because I needed a separate system with Windows 11, to be sure our stuff works with both OS and be able to verify first hand any possible issues.

bcm652:
You still have the option to set up dual operating systems with windows 10 on your laptop.
But like the old saying goes, ''keep it simple,''
