I had an old computer with Win 10 and bought a new Dell with Win 11.
- I made the switch, and found that MS cloud is turned on by default. I sucked up all my bandwidth because it decided to move everything to the cloud. Make sure that is off! The cloud works fine for me at work but I don't need it at home!
- Change happens, it didn't frustrate me except for it deciding it needed everything on the cloud. A recent update turned the cloud back on, and started saving my files there again, even though I used "Save As" and though I was saving to my local drive. I had to disable the cloud again.
- They moved some things around- it is accessed from a little icon that looks like 4 squares at the bottom of the screen (windows icon). Your apps and power are down there. Cut/copy/paste are little scissors, two overlaid squares, and a clipboard with a square. It takes some time getting used to it.
- CC works, and works better on a new computer. I can't say anything about the other software.
- I mentioned how it tries to move everything to the cloud, and when it gets full, it wants you to pay for more space.
I'm neutral on it.
I had the cloud thing happen on an old laptop I re-purposed. I did a clean install of W10 and when I looked, all my files were in the cloud. Not sure I like that, but I copied them all to the local disk and just use the cloud when I want to do file sharing between my various PCs.
