    I guess there might hope at the end of the tunnel, but for now I'm sticking with Windows 10.

    Is your printer also serving as a shared network printer? Is your printer connected to your desktop or Laptop via USB cable?

    I agree with you. Had lots of issues when I first upgraded but it was worse when I went back to W 10. Never could get the printer to work again. Finally re-upgraded to 11 and after a fairly short adjustment period, everything came together. My printer works better than ever - it likes 11! So all of you stuck with the upgrade - hang in there - there is light at the end of the tunnel.

    Wow, I didn't mean to stir up an existential debate about Microsoft Vs linux.

    I appreciate all the comments, and the passion.

    Ironically, my main PC updated to 11 before I could stop it, and yes, it is really irritating in lots of ways, but some of the things I thought were missing are there, but are now icons, not words, and there is some good stuff I didn't see at first glance.

    And perhaps it's worth remembering that MS don't want to create a rubbish OS, it's just that 11 is probably their worst first efforts (bar metro tiles?), and I'm still stunned their marketing department can get it this wrong.

    Stardock are clrealy doing great business with the Start11 skin, providing the missing functionality, so if you really can't stand it, there seems to be a solution in the market.

    I gather that MS are already modifying the start menu options, and I suspect we will get back to the future shortly....

    In the meantime, whatever your choices & reactions, good luck, and go well.

    Best, & thanks,

    N
