June 16, 20214 yr MS has announced that Win10 will be shown the door in 2025. A few leaks have emerged already showing the Win11 GUI WIP but if these are real is anyones guess. This has me wondering how it will affect MSFS. Will Win11 give us better performance? We have a long wait but it will be interesting to see what additional info MS gives us. Will this be a free upgrade like 10, I doubt it somehow. https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2021/06/make-way-for-windows-11-windows-10-end-of-life-is-october-2025/

Avionics, weather engine, cloud textures, depth of aircraft modeling, flight dynamics, ATC, ATIS/AWOS, restrictions/prohibitions on SDK, clear NIFS.... 2025? How about today?

June 16, 20214 yr Hey fspilot- picky, picky, picky😋 2025? A lot of us were lucky to survive 2020 - just can't seem to start worrying about 2025 doings right now...
June 16, 20214 yr You will get the full SP in a couple of weeks, it will be released in an update some time soon. Edited June 16, 20214 yr by G-RFRY Raymond Fry.
June 16, 20214 yr You will have enough time to adapt to W11 for sure. To me, there are more important things to be concerned about at this time.

June 16, 20214 yr Maybe that's a good thing in that it means the steady barrage of bugged updates that break stuff will stop being forced on us.

June 17, 20214 yr Author There is going to be a reveal on June 24 by MS. Could this mean we will see Win 11 earlier? https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/event
June 17, 20214 yr i have the windows 11 developer version on my pc, it is much better in my opinion, no flat tiles, windows looks like windows 7. p3d 5.2 and x-plane 11 work fine. the servers are overloaded for MSFS because of some update. when it levels off i will give msfs a try.

June 18, 20214 yr I seem to recall that when Windows 10 was released, it was advertised as the last version of Windows. Guess not. My computer: ABS Gladiator Gaming PC featuring an Intel 10700F CPU, EVGA CLC-240 AIO cooler (dead fans replaced with Noctua fans), Asus Tuf Gaming B460M Plus motherboard, 16GB DDR4-3000 RAM, 1 TB NVMe SSD, EVGA RTX3070 FTW3 video card, dead EVGA 750 watt power supply replaced with Antec 900 watt PSU.
