I also have my Win license tied to my MS account so to reactivate is only pressing a button. I thought since I'm using all the other component back, Win will detect it as same PC. I guess they detect it on motherboard ID.

My current 10 years old pc, already replace all part except CPU and motherboard never replace, format several time using same windows 7 key to install windows 10
Never trigger reactivate again even on windows 10, nope i did not sign in ms account, use local account

Just got my Windows 11 Home Single Language today with new laptop!

I adjust the taskbar icon to the left, not feeling easy with centered taskbar. biggrin.gif

I set up my PIN for Windows, but after a security patch a short while later, it says I need to set up my PIN again -- not a friendly experience for me.

Anyway, my laptop is 12GB, but it says 2.1GB RAM is reserved, only 9.9GB usable. ranting.gif
Does anyone know why?

Yes. I just found it in BIOS setting can set UMA buffer size (factory default 2GB), after also asking a computer shop friend.

I might want to set it to 1GB only.

I expand the window, the full sentence is "Form factor, row of chips", no idea what it is.

Yes, AMD APU which has a integrated Radeon graphics shares some memory directly from the RAM to provide a “shared VRAM” feature. You can adjust it but it will also impact if you run any 3D games that required more GPU memory then it would apparently crash occasionally or not run-able or lagging. Since you have 12GB RAM, allocate 2GB or 4GB for the integrated Radeon graphics is strongly recommended. Most Windows application is working fine with 8GB RAM without causing any slow performance on your computer. Unless you are running on Adobe Premiere Pro or Autodesk AutoCAD application.

Mine everything changed except PSU, keyboard, mouse & monitor so was afraid will burn the license but luckily still can use back. Quite generous this Microsoft. That license was originally activated Win 7 Pro OA from Lenovo Thinkcentre M73 (now using as Linux server). Then I use the license on my 7th gen i5 (fresh Win 7 Pro then upgrade Win 10 Pro) and now the new 12th gen (fresh install Win 11 Pro.)
*
I also have changed hardware 2 times, this is the third machine using the same license. Now really easy to move license between hardware.

So maybe really MS check only on the motherboard.

I don't like the taskbar and start menu style in Win11. Windows 10 is better, I like the old tiles.

How to hide the Recommended section in start menu, it is completely a waste (after I turn off recent files, it is still there).

After several months of struggling with the inability to not combine icons at the taskbar, decided to install trial version of StartAllBack. Usability significantly improves back to pre-win 11.

If you don't have external GPU, you should not set as 1GB as it will impact to overall performance especially if you have higher resolution display.
Keep it 2 GB or higher 4 GB if this internal GPU is the only GPU you have now and using it.

You can't total hide the recommendation section but in future Windows 11 (build 22H2) will let you reduce the recommendation.

22H2 is in beta testing now and it is near RTM now, means final is out soon by this year, tentative target release by October 2022.
Beside this new customization, more changes is coming for 22H2 which make Windows 11 even better and more complete product.

Start Menu Personalize in future Windows 11 build 22H2

I'm thinking of upgrading the Windows 11 Home license that I have with this new laptop to Pro license, would that be a good idea?

Sure, Pro better than Home. One system feature I use from Pro version is Remote Desktop.

Win 10 ARM runs virtualised on the M1. I expect Win 11 ARM also can.
