The lengthy advertisement for Windows 11 was highlighted by Windows Latest after it installed the optional January update (in preview) on a Windows 10 machine.
Doesnt actually matter in this case. After the install you can revert the tweaks and your still good. It just trys to prevent the install.
I have even clonned full win11 installs to systems that do not meet the minimum requirement. And it boots no problem (ofcourse disable bitlocker before clonning if it is enabled.)
Maybe not. But I remember there was a regedit for disabling Cortana and Microsoft straight up revered it in an update. Not only that, windows was unable to boot and I had to fix it in safe mode
