On the versions section, change the sentence "The Windows Insider program carries over from Windows 11" to "The Windows Insider program carries over from Windows 10". This clarifies the sentence which previously said the dev program for Windows 11 carried over from Windows 11, which makes no sense.

About the requirements
Microsoft is still letting PCs that don’t meet the secure boot, BIOS, or TPM “requirements” upgrade to Windows 11. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 147.253.233.145 (talk) 21:57, 2021 September 15 (UTC)
- Is there a source for that? Also, sign your comments by adding four tildes to the end. Now, I will admit I have watched a video saying it's possible to modify the iso to let you install without the requirements, but we still need a source. 24.124.10.14 (talk) 18:08, 23 September 2021 (UTC)
- TPM 1.2 is not needed: https://gist.github.com/AveYo/c74dc774a8fb81a332b5d65613187b15 109.252.90.174 (talk) 10:06, 6 October 2021 (UTC)
any random tpm is good i think Princestephenstar (talk) 15:31, 8 October 2021 (UTC)
- What is a random TPM? TPM - trusted platform Module - is a hardware device or some software built into a CPU, **randomness** as in..?
- Today I installed Windows 11 on this computer using bypass.reg as described on THIS https://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/installing-windows-11-without-tpm-2-0-and-secure-boot-registry-bypass.284107/ page.
- Nothing further is required, the operating system is activated with my personal key.
- Picture attached. Missbellanash (talk) 20:54, 10 October 2021 (UTC) Missbellanash (talk) 20:58, 10 October 2021 (UTC)
- A random TPM means either software (emulated in Minix operating system in PCH or in Vmware) or TPM 1.2 HW /2.0 HW. Any one of those is not really needed. 109.252.90.119 (talk) 17:32, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- The way that's written suggests Minix OS has something to do with TPM requirements for Win 11 and it does not. The only way to meet Microsoft's requirement for a TPM to allow installation of Windows 11 without a TPM is to remove checking for a TPM as seen here Install Windows 11 (microsoft.com) or by similar methods that can be found via the internet {'bypass.reg'}. Missbellanash (talk) 07:05, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- It does obviously, Minix is PCH/Intel silicon OS, without it nothing from USB to PCIe will work. TPM part too. Also, when will you update that TPM 1.2 is enough? 109.252.90.119 (talk) 22:10, 3 November 2021 (UTC)

Microsoft makes it harder to switch default browsers
What is the good section to include a reference to that? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Williambarth (talk • contribs) 08:03, 12 October 2021 (UTC)
- Hi Williambarth there's already some references about difficulties changing default apps in the Launch-section. Do you have a text in mind that would expand on that? Ofc we'd also need reliable sources. – NJD-DE (talk) 08:18, 12 October 2021 (UTC)

Windows builds are versions
Edits by Purplneon486 undone versions and replaced the term with EDITIONS also removing the references. Windows builds have always been referred to as builds and versions, nomenclature has always denoted versions, the references are required. Undoing Purplneon486 change. 06:49, 13 October 2021 Examples: - Windows 10, version 21H1 | Microsoft Docs ANd Windows 10 - Features that have been removed - Windows Deployment | Microsoft Docs
The thing is Microsoft itself is using both versions and editions as synonyms in their commercial pages (Example: Compare Windows 11 Home vs Pro versions who in the title is using versions but in the body is using editions), but inside the OS the distinction is clear: Editions are Home, Pro, Education... and Version is (atm only) 21H1 / Sun Valley. So the thing is what criteria we will use for an encyclopedic article? My opinion is using the denominations who are inside the OS instead of the mismatching Microsoft is doing in their commercial pages. --Pablo Honorato (talk) 17:57, 2 November 2021 (UTC)
@purpleneon486 please discuss major edits here (talk) before committing. Missbellanash (talk) 15:55, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
Windows 11 versions section is yet incomplete
Windows 11 - Wikipedia as seen is a placeholder list
The section will have text defining the major differences.
Something like this Windows 11((text)) (DVD version downloadable) is {change changes change} bulletpoint etc.
Don't edit this. Missbellanash (talk) 16:05, 13 October 2021 (UTC)
- On versions: At a Ignite conference Jerry Nixon stated that Windows 10 would be the "last version of Windows", a statement that Microsoft confirmed was "reflective" of its view... with new builds and updates to be released over time. ...speculation of a new version or a redesign of Windows ...a job listing referring to a "sweeping visual venation of Windows" was posted by Microsoft.... a visual refresh for Windows.

Edit Collison
What happened -- I committed this table {| class="wikitable plainrowheaders" border="1"
with the different builds, hit pub after preview check then the new table drooped to the bottom of the page crushing the other table. Change reverted. Missbellanash (talk) 02:45, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- @Missbellanash: your table had some formatting errors, I've restore the table and fixed those errors. While I didn't change the text size, I will note that per MOS:SMALL small text should generally be avoided, so I'd recommend you removing the
<small>
tags. Elli (talk | contribs) 02:57, 14 October 2021 (UTC)- Thanks, you're a champ! I had problems committing that table and had to remove it, was actually a lot of doing to get it right for wiki markup -- I really appreciate the help! I will remove the tag, too, I'm going to look for an acceptable method for a few minutes...it's just too small for phones. Thanks again! Missbellanash (talk) 03:06, 14 October 2021 (UTC)
- Complete, tables are fully compliant. I will watch for descriptive text for that, atm I don't have anything in mind to add. Missbellanash (talk) 03:39, 14 October 2021 (UTC)

At the "Development" section, just before the "Announcement" subsection, change the text:
"Microsoft began to implement and announce some of these visual changes and other new features on Windows 10 insider builds, such as new system icons (which also included the replacement of shell resources dating back as far as Windows 95), improvements to Task View to allow changing the wallpaper on each virtual desktop, and adding the Auto HDR feature from Xbox Series X."

Changed "Windows 10 insider builds" to "Windows 10 Insider Preview builds" and added "emulation of x64 applications on ARM,". The sources for the second change are [1] and [2].
