The registry trick came with caveats, though. Third-party SSD management tools like Samsung Magician and Western Digital Dashboard were not compatible with the new driver, and BitLocker could trigger recovery prompts after the driver swap.

I don’t understand the M$ endgame with Win 11.
Like, it would be very easy to paint recent gaffs as intentional… but as Halon’s sez “never attribute to malice that which is adequately explained by stupidity”.
Putting aside low hanging fruit (end stage capitalism, ai bad etc)…y u do this, Microsoft? You have good people there, right? Top. Men. Right?
I’d love to read something on this topic from a M$ insider / ex-pat. I’m trying to understanding why M$ is doing the equivalent of Sideshow Bob stepping on garden rakes.
What’s up over there?
Part hubris, part greed. They believe their own hype and either think that other people will believe it too or that they can force it on the unbelievers, thus leading to great profit.
Where is the profit? Enforced cloud accounts and storage mean users’ information is permanently held ransom, and users shall pay monthly to retain access to it.
They can also pick through users’ files and sell that information to data brokers and advertisers, if not also various government intelligence agencies.
Actually that last one is more about the continued ability to go on bleeding users dry, but it amounts to the same thing.
it just takes a few stupid people in higher positions to negate the work of hundreds more competent people.
I don’t think you can apply Hanlon’s Razor to actions of corporations.
Corporations are people too! /s
For publicly traded companies, you actually have to apply the inverse of Hanlons Razor.
Rozar’s Nolnah? It is forbidden.
I think Hanlon was either a lot more optimistic than I am or he was malicious when he came up with that Razor, assuming razors are named after the person who coined them.
They’re relying more and more on AI coding.
no no no, you misunderstand, this is malice, but the reason backing it is stupid and short sighted. i mean, unless the game plan was to run off their customers like a movie troupe
