I own Windows 11 and my computer and preferred OS (Fedora) support TPM and Secure boot. Is it worth the time to configure that stuff to run W11, or should I just continue to run W10 since I don’t do anything but run a couple games?

I have a robust backup, so even a system wide Nuke is a day’s worth of re-installing, worst case.

Honestly, since I boot W10 so rarely, it’ll kinda be nice not to have to update it every time.

    I’m in a similar situation, but not about gaming. I have two programs that will only run on windows that I need to maintain some specific , unusual hardware that has no network connection, only USB for external control. I’ve tried running it under WINE with no luck. I’ve successfully moved everything else I need to Linux.

    The problematic hardware and software will never be updated and will reach end of life in a few years, so I moved the SW onto an old laptop running Windows 7 that has no wifi or Ethernet connection. I see that as the best and safest solution for now.
