Windows 11 Security - Opinion From Malwarebytes

Steve K

I have had good experience with Malwarebytes, and consider their opinions valuable.  The whole analysis is linked below, here is what I consider the bottom line:

"These days, new Windows operating systems are rarely greeted with great enthusiasm unless they’re putting right the wrongs of a particularly disliked predecessor. The bottom line is that Windows 10 works and OS upgrades are painful, so it is difficult to imagine that anyone will conclude they need Windows 11."

And what does a safer PC mean for gaming or rendering? Looks like a 5% performance hit for rendering and 0-15% for gaming, in the very first Win 11 release. Also AMD has a specific performance issue of about 15%, to be fixed soon by MS/AMD. More details: https://www.tomshardware.com/news/windows-11-gaming-benchmarks-performance-vbs-hvci-security
