#Pc Migration Windows 11

[enterpriselaplink]

Why IT Teams Prefer PCmover for Windows 11 Migrations with Autopilot!

Enterprise IT teams face growing pressure to migrate systems faster and with fewer As more organizations upgrade to Windows 11, IT teams are facing a familiar challenge—migrating user profiles, apps, and settings quickly and without disruption. While Windows Autopilot handles the initial setup and configuration of new devices, it doesn't fully address the complexities of PC migration on Windows 11.

That’s where PCmover Enterprise steps in. As an advanced Windows migration software, it complements Autopilot by filling in the critical gaps and making the entire migration process faster, easier, and more user-friendly.

Autopilot Is Powerful—But Not Complete

Windows Autopilot is a fantastic tool for provisioning new devices and joining them to Azure AD or enrolling them in Intune. It sets the foundation for device readiness, applying policies, pushing cloud-based apps, and registering hardware with minimal effort.

However, Autopilot does not transfer:

Installed applications

Personalized settings

Locally stored files and folders

Complete user profiles

For companies undergoing large-scale PC migration to Windows 11, this limitation can result in longer onboarding times, repeated manual work, and frustrated users who end up with unfamiliar setups on their new machines.

PCmover: The Missing Link in Windows Migration

PCmover Enterprise acts as the perfect complement to Windows Autopilot. While Autopilot prepares the device, PCmover migrates everything else users expect: their desktop layout, files, locally installed apps, and even profile configurations.

This powerful combination delivers a complete Windows migration software solution—without requiring IT teams to script every step or manually configure each machine.

Benefits of Combining PCmover with Windows Autopilot

Seamless PC Migration to Windows 11: Users log into a new device that looks and feels just like their old one. All settings, files, and apps are ready to go.

Reduces Support Tickets: With a consistent user experience post-migration, the need for IT troubleshooting drops significantly.

Fast Deployment: Migrations that used to take hours or days can now be completed in a fraction of the time.

Zero-Touch Capability: Ideal for hybrid or remote teams, PCmover can run without user interaction, saving IT teams time and effort.

Enterprise-Ready: PCmover is secure, scalable, and integrates with OneDrive, Microsoft Intune, and Autopilot to support even the largest enterprise environments.

A Real Solution for Modern IT Challenges

Today’s IT departments need more than basic tools—they need solutions built for speed, reliability, and minimal disruption. That’s why more organizations are moving away from limited tools and turning to Windows migration software that does it all.

With PCmover, PC migration on Windows 11 becomes a streamlined process that saves time, preserves user productivity, and ensures data integrity.

Final Thought

Provisioning with Windows Autopilot is a great start—but it’s not enough on its own. When paired with PCmover, IT teams gain a full Windows migration solution that delivers real results at scale.

Whether you're upgrading old systems or refreshing an entire fleet, combining Autopilot with PCmover Enterprise ensures a smooth and stress-free transition to Windows 11—for everyone.

months ago i amazed many by saying i liked windows 11 (within an hour of installing it)

i still like it, mostly. however, of course:

here are the things i do not like about windows 11, as promised.

-yeah, a lot of right click options are under "show more options" now, requiring you to click through for a lot of stuff. extra clicks. annoying. -the window snapping to edges uh, hitbox, is bigger now and it's kind of annoying. sometimes yes, i really do just wanna put a window kinda in the corner but not have it take up a predetermined amount of screen. takes some nudging -sometimes streaming on discord does not do audio?? i dont get it but it works sometimes. i also use eartrumpet so this could be on me somehow lol -sometimes i have a hard time finding old settings. it seems like moving things over from the old settings/control panel style is a work in progress and happening slowly - so not everything's migrated yet. idk if it all will. but it can just be tricky finding stuff. it's THERE, somewhere, but it's harder to find than it should be probably -taskbar can't be moved. i do not like that. it's fine but i just used to always have my taskbar either on the top of my screen or on the left. i'm used to it now. -the widgets box could be so fuckin cool. but they force you to have a bunch of awful news stuff and i can't seem to figure out how to either get rid of it entirely, or make sure it doesn't show me stuff that'll make me rage. so i never use it, despite a lotta useful stuff.

here are some things i am loving about windows 11 tho, because i am sticking with it lol

-rounded corners. they just make me happy. -centered taskbar. hell yeah. -phone link is massively improved. i can text and call my mom from my computer now. nice. -quick settings. this is in windows 10 but it always felt kinda pointless. here it has a lot of little settings, and you can do a lot without having to leave the box finally. yay. -window organization/snapping - yes i bitched about this. however, built in are some grids that help for some quick organization in a really nice way that you could only do while running power toys. i admittedly still use it

BEST THING ABOUT WINDOWS 11 THAT PC ARTISTS WILL UNDERSTAND: it remembers window/monitor locations. so if you disconnect your cintiq with clip studio open, even though it bumps it to your main monitor... IT GOES BACK WHEN YOU PLUG YOUR CINTIQ BACK IN. it actually remembers which monitor a program was on in different settings (extend, pc screen only, duplicate, etc). fuckinggg finally. so good.

anyway

i'm sure i will hate the things i love and love the things i hate and learn how to do things or windows will update them out. i'm here for it.

SHRUG!!! it feels modern finally and not like, an attempt to be modern. so that's cool. it'll get there eventually i hope, or ai will take it over in a horrific manner. we'll see.

(note to linux people: do not tell me to use linux i will go into a rage) (note to mac people: do not tell me to switch to a mac unless you're buying me a new mac)

Are Apple Silicon Macs too good?

In his latest video Luke Miani asks if #Apple made their new machines too good. Across two polls, having run a second one to verify the results of the first, respondents strongly indicated they had no intention of upgrading their early M-series Macs. I have a feeling Apple fully expected that, however. Watch the video on YouTube. We have three Mini’s, two M1 and one Intel, and have no need to upgrade them anytime soon. I may desire an M4 Mini, but I don’t need one. What is behind this?

To understand this there are, I believe, two different, unrelated factors that need to be taken into consideration:

Apple’s primary drivers of revenue are the #iPhone, the App Store, and services.

There are millions upon millions of #Windows users who might choose to move to Apple rather than be forced upgrade to Windows 11 but cannot since their hardware is incompatible, because #Microsoft has chosen to enshittify their desktop with ads and #AI, or both.

Apple’s personal computer marketshare has long been around 20% with Microsoft dominating for literal decades with 72% of the PC market. But it’s critical to understand that a decade ago Microsoft had well over 80%, and it continues to slowly decay. The iPhone plays a significant role in the fact that Apple has a $2.5T valuation, as consumers tend to upgrade every two years, giving Apple a mostly reliable playing field to project consistent revenues.

NOTE: Microsoft has a similar market capitalization to Apple but the important distinction is that Microsoft engages in a wide range of markets, including corporate software and services, as well as the Xbox and video games publishing, all of which contribute to the company’s bottom line. Apple still competes by offering a mere fraction of the models and verticals of its rivals.

That consistency is crucial. It allows Apple to not only sit back and just let their Mac users be Mac users and upgrade as they please, but also breathing room for some mild experimentation with various services and hardware. The iPhone Mini was available for the iPhone 12 and 13 then cancelled to be replaced by the Plus model, which has been around longer than the Mini. And the next rumored experiment will be the iPhone Air which may appear this October. They’ve also got enough in the bank to allow them to pivot and shift based on unforeseen market fluctuations or, in the case of component availability, weather the less than stellar rollout of the moderately underwhelming M3 processor.

And Apple isn’t blind. I’m quite sure that one major consideration in their calculations is Microsoft and their recent “efforts” to tank their own success. Users are unhappy with Windows 11 and in October of this year Microsoft will be ending support for the far more popular Windows 10. Many users are even downgrading to Windows 10 to escape the oppressive changes in Windows 11. In addition, the upgrade to Windows 11 requires support for TPM 2.0 which will “relegate” millions of unsupported systems to be discarded or sold for cheap, an outcome that is exciting many nerds over the prospect of a torrent of dirt cheap or free computers which can happily and securely run #Linux and other operating systems. Linux is an easy and capable migration path, but being honest with ourselves, most Windows users won’t go this direction.

I think Apple knows this. For one, they’ve maintained a stability in offerings that is appealing when compared to Microsoft’s numerous radical shifts over the years, the frequency of which has started to turn off consumers. Second, Apple has been aggressive in allowing resellers to offer significant sale pricing and even has an exclusive deal with Walmart to sell new M1 Macbook Air base models for $700 and which is on seemingly permanent sale for $650. In most of Apple’s history this is unprecedented, as they have for decades required resellers to match their own pricing and not offer sales. Finally, Apple’s resale value for their Intel models has dropped precipitously and used M1 and M2 machines are a lot more affordable than they used to be, presenting an enticing option for budget buyers.

Apple, for the most part, has played the long game. Pixar focused on getting one particular element perfected for each film so they might add that element to their toolbox for later films like fur in Monsters Inc. and the ocean in Finding Nemo. Apple has done much the same, working on iterations of various elements of their systems, refining them until they meet their internal expectations for excellence. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that Steve Jobs ran both and had, with help from others to manifest his vision, been instrumental in forming the foundations of two entire industries. Ingest that in whatever form you prefer.

The short answer to the question posed by Luke is no. The suggestion that CEO Tim Cook and the entire team at Apple could have miscalculated that the potential longevity of their products could cause Apple, one of the wealthiest corporations on planet Earth, to disintegrate or fall into the doldrums of relevance is in itself a miscalculation of what Apple is and how it operates. Is Apple flawless? Hell no. Most recently, I think they horribly miscalculated both the retail price and consumer interest in Apple Vision. There are other failures dotting Apple’s history, as well.

On the other hand, they basically own the tablet market. Full stop. They swap first and second place with Samsung for mobile phone volume, and Samsung has to make dozens of models to compete with Apple. AirPods are stupid popular. The Apple Watch has a huge chunk of the smart watch market. Apple is doing well, and all whilst offering a fraction of the options of others they compete with.

Avec Windows 10 en fin de vie, Microsoft ouvre les portes de Windows 11 aux PC non-pris en charge

La migration vers Windows 11 se heurte depuis son lancement à des exigences matérielles strictes, notamment la présence d'une puce TPM 2.0, freinant considérablement son adoption. Face à cette situation, Microsoft propose désormais une solution officielle pour installer Windows 11 sur des configurations non compatibles, tout en avertissant clairement les utilisateurs des risques encourus.

Minor Update!

Hey so I'm in the middle of migrating from a dying Windows PC to a Linux setup. So far I'm having a much better time than I was with Windows 11 but itll be a bit before I get any more art posted as I still haven't moved my WIP paint.net project files over and want to mess with some different art programs now that I'm changing OSes. There will be more pixel art but it'll probably be a bit before I post anything finished! (Especially now that I'm writing regularly too now lol)

ALERT: Your laptop is in danger! Microsoft is ending support for Windows 10!!! The trillion-dollar company's most popular operating system, Windows 10, will no longer receive updates after October 2025! It indicates that although the software will still function, it won't get any updates!

This is to introduce the upcoming operating system generation, which will include potent AI and might boost the flagging PC market.

But is this the best decision? Microsoft has asked people to migrate to the latest version once Windows 10 runs out, meaning you could simply install a new OS. However, Windows 11 has very stringent hardware requirements. A Canalys study suggests that Microsoft's move may lead to the retirement of a record 240 million PCs! Even though Microsoft intends to charge for support until October 2028, customers would save more money by switching to newer PCs if pricing trends continued to follow historical trends! This would result in e-waste equal to 480 million kilograms or 320,000 cars!!!! Should Microsoft reconsider its decision?

How to Move Windows to Another Drive [2024 Updated] - Technology Org

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/how-to-move-windows-to-another-drive-2024-updated-technology-org/

How to Move Windows to Another Drive [2024 Updated] - Technology Org

Whether you’ve snagged a new SSD or aim to switch to a roomier drive, the real question is “How to move windows to another drive?” But worry not. This guide shares the complete knowledge of transferring Windows, aka “cloning,” to a new drive with three methods without losing data.

We’ve also shared the prep steps in the drive cloning process and dished out insights on the effort and time each method demands, empowering you to make a savvy decision. So, let’s transfer Windows to a new hard drive now!

Part 1: When Do You Need to Move Windows to Another Drive?

You may need to transfer Windows to new hard drive, such as a larger one, to fix the insufficient disk space issue. Or want to move Windows to another drive, like an SSD, due to the advantages it offers over HDDs, such as:

Ensure a notably faster and more efficient startup with quick data reading and writing speeds.

Offers faster data access speeds, providing quicker application loading and heightened system responsiveness.

Have no moving parts, thus reducing the risk of mechanical failures.

Provide shock resistance for increased durability.

Contributes to energy efficiency due to lower power consumption.

Part 2: Preparation Before Moving Windows to Another Drive

Before you move Windows 11 to another drive or downgrade to an older OS version, preparing beforehand is wise to prevent boot errors. Here’s what you need to do:

Backup Your Data – Back up your valuable data on the target disk, as the Windows migration involves rewriting the entire disk.

Get a Larger Drive – Choose a new disk with more capacity than your current drive and keep 30% to 40% of free space on the system disk. This is to maintain high-level computer performance and stability.

Set Up the New Disk – Install the new disk using a SATA Cable to your PC, then initialize it to MBR or GPT (the same disk type as the source OS drive). If the target drive is old, clear all existing data and partitions.

Choose an OS Migration Tool – Select an efficient tool according to your technical knowledge to move Windows installation to another drive.

Part 3: Three Methods to Move Windows to Another Drive

We’ve delved into three ways to move Windows 10 to another drive. You can either use a cloning tool to copy the OS from an HDD to an SSD or create a system image and recover it on an SSD. Another choice is to go for the easiest route with a third-party Partition Manager tool. Check out the detailed steps below, which we’ve shared in detail for each method:

Method 1:  4DDiG Partition Manager

Time

25 -30 minutes

Ease of Use

Beginner-friendly

Tools

4DDiG Partition Manager and your new drive

Drawback

Priced at $9.9 on Christmas Sale

For beginners, the top choice is 4DDiG Partition Manager, which provides a one-click solution to move Windows installation to another drive without reinstalling the system. This versatile tool also efficiently clones your entire hard drive for seamless data backup, so there is no need to prepare a bootable USB. More than just that, it provides many more benefits, such as:

Recover deleted, repair RAW, and restore formatted partitions.

Repairs bad sectors and offers comprehensive disk care.

Resize, merge, split, create, delete, and format partitions to optimize disk space.

Transfer windows to new hard drive without losing any data.

Follow the instructions below to move Windows 11 to another drive with the help of this tool:

Step 1: Install the tool on your computer and connect the new drive to your PC.

Step 2: Launch the tool, click “Start,” and choose the new drive as the target disk.

Step 3: Confirm the source disk (selected by default) and acknowledge the overwrite warning by clicking “Sure” and “Start.”

Step 4: Based on the drive size, it will take some time to transfer Windows to new hard drive. You can check the migration speed, elapsed time, and related data in the meanwhile. Press “Finish” when the OS transfer is complete.

Method 2: Windows System Image Tool

Time

40-50 minutes

Tools

Windows inbuilt System Image tool, bootable USB, and new drive

Ease of Use

Medium

Cost

Free

Drawbacks

Time-consuming backup and setup; carries a risk of data loss or corruption.

For professional users who don’t mind the manual steps, another effective method involves using a Windows System Image to move Windows 10 to another drive. Start by creating a system image backup, then a recovery USB, and finally, restore the system image to a new drive. Here’s how to move Windows to another drive with detailed steps using the Windows System Image tool:

Step 1: Create a System Image Backup

Connect an empty external drive (SSD or HDD) to your computer.

Open “Control Panel” and head to “System and Security.”

Choose “Backup and Restore,” select “Create a system image,” then tap “Start backup.”

Choose a destination drive with enough space for the system image backup and click “Next.”

Opt for either “Let Windows choose” or “Let me choose” to select what to backup. Click “Next.”

Finally, tap “Save settings and run backup” to generate the system image.

Step 2: Create a Recovery USB

Plug in a USB to your computer.

In the Control Panel, type “ Create a recovery drive” and click on it to open.

Mark “Back up system files to the recovery drive.” Hit “Next.”

Choose the USB as the target, click “Next,” and follow the onscreen instructions to complete the process.

Step 3: Move Windows to Another Drive

Turn off your computer, open its case, and remove the old hard drive.

Connect the recovery USB and external drive to your PC with the system image backup instead.

Reboot the system, press F2/Del for BIOS, and set the PC to boot from the USB recovery drive.

On the “Windows Setup” screen, click “Next,” set language, keyboard, etc., then click “Next.”

Head to “Repair your computer” and choose “Troubleshoot.”

Select “Advanced options,” then tap“System Image Recovery.”

The newest backup will appear; if it fails, pick the right one from the external drive and click “Next.”

Check “Format and repartition disks” and click “Next.”

Confirm by clicking “Yes” and “Finish” to move Windows installation to another drive.

Wait for the system recovery to finish, reboot, and Windows will start automatically.

Method 3: Clonezilla

Time

4-5 hours for a 1TB drive

Tools

Clonezilla, bootable USB, and external drive

Ease of Use

Difficult

Cost

 Free

Drawbacks

Time-consuming; Requires advanced tech skills; Cloning can fail due to bad disk sectors.

Another option to move Windows 11 to another drive is by cloning the entire disk. You can do this through an open and free-source cloning tool like Clonezilla. It will clone the OS, applications, and data from your disk, so you don’t need a backup. You can also use Clonezilla as a backup tool to clone your disk data before using the System Image or 4DDiG tool. Here’s how to transfer Windows to new hard drive with Clonezilla:

Step 1: Reduce Partition Size (Optional)

You must reduce the partition size if you’re using Clonezilla to move Windows to another drive that is smaller. But if the destination drive is equal to or larger than the source drive, skip this step. Here’s what to do to reduce partition size:

Press the “Windows + R” keys and type in “diskmgmt.msc.” Press Enter to open Disk Management.

Right-click the main volume (C:) and select “Shrink Volume.”

Adjust the volume size to shrink and tap “Shrink.”

After shrinking, you’ll see unallocated space. Right-click on the unallocated space and select “New Simple Volume” to create a new partition or leave it unallocated for the cloning process.

Step 2: Download Clonezilla and Prepare a Bootable USB

Visit the Clonezilla download page, choose the ISO option, and click “Download.”

Visit the Rufus website and download the latest version of the tool to create a bootable USB.

Launch the tool, select your USB, click “Select,” choose the Clonezilla ISO, click “Open,” and hit Start.

Step 3: Clone Windows to Another Drive

Connect your new drive to your computer.

Boot your computer using the bootable USB. When Clonezilla loads, hit “Enter” for default settings.

Choose your language, select “Don’t touch keymap,” and start Clonezilla.

Opt for “Beginner mode,” pick “disk_to_local_disk local_disk_to_local_disk_clone,” and press “Enter.”

Choose the source and target drives and decide whether to check or skip the source file system.

Choose “reboot/shut down/etc” when everything is finished.

Confirm the cloning process by typing Y thrice. Press “Enter” each time. This is to confirm everything’s good with the cloning process, data overwrite in cloning, and getting the boot loader cloned (for a bootable Windows drive). Next, the software will move Windows 10 to another drive by cloning.

[ad_1] There are extra PCs working Home windows XP than methods that have followed Microsoft’s newest Windows 11 running device, a brand new file specializing in business PCs has claimed.Granted, in each circumstances the chances are very low, however findings from Lansweeper, an IT asset management corporate, display Home windows XP was once discovered to be on 1.71% of the PCs surveyed, in comparison to simply 1.44% that have shifted to Home windows 11.That turns out like a pathetically low determine for an running device which was once launched some six months in the past, however no less than the share has ticked up somewhat quicker for the reason that get started of the 12 months, for the reason that Home windows 11 marketplace proportion was once simply 0.52% in January 2022, Lansweeper says.Home windows 11 vs Home windows XP - actuallyThe crux of the subject in lots of circumstances is that PCs don’t meet the minimal device necessities for Home windows 11. Lansweeper observes that 55% of gadgets don't seem to be suitable with Home windows 11, and a big sticking level is TPM, with virtually part of workstation TPMs (47%) failing to satisfy necessities (or the device’s TPM wasn’t enabled).Certainly, each Home windows 7 (on 4.7%) and Home windows 8 (nonetheless being utilized by 1.99%) have been extra standard than Home windows 11. As you may bet, Home windows 10 was once by way of a ways the most-used OS within the survey, being run on 80.3% of machines.Research: Slow adoption is a much broader theme for Home windows 11Home windows 11 isn't faring neatly within the trade global, it might appear – and certainly that’s striking it mildly, going by way of those stats. Alternatively, this is only one file, and as is all the time the case with statistics, it’s now not sensible to position an excessive amount of inventory in only a unmarried supply.There are issues of Home windows 11 adoption, despite the fact that, as we’ve noticed extra broadly. Certainly, as Lansweeper issues out, the main factor is that businesses could have to take a look at purchasing solely new hardware – in tough financial occasions – to satisfy Home windows 11’s device necessities, and specifically the stipulation for TPM 2.0 to verify higher safety.Moreover, it’s truthful to mention that Home windows 11 isn't vastly other to Home windows 10 in some ways, and Windows 10 stays supported till 2025 – so there’s no giant rush to start out making plans an OS migration technique when there’s nonetheless a great deal of highway left on the subject of complete reinforce and updates.Home windows 11 uptake hasn’t been that rapid within the broader shopper surroundings, too – albeit now not just about as dire as this newest file – and basically for causes round compatibility in a equivalent vein.Figures from AdDuplex display a 19% marketplace proportion for Home windows 11, however that appears to have stalled of late, and gaming adoption on Steam is even slower at slightly below 17%. Tellingly, within the latter case, players moved to Home windows 10 two times as rapid as they’re doing with Home windows 11.Issues are having a look somewhat lackluster for Home windows 11 all-round, then, and it appears like adoption will likely be a slow-burning affair going ahead.As of late's easiest Computer offers [ad_2] #Home windows #it seems that #standard #Home windows, , 2022-04-14 15:03:13 ,

Microsoft and Project Pluto

I've been doing some digging around Microsoft's future plans, seeing how more or less astroturfing several manufacturers into releasing TPM 2.0-compliant potatoes that can barely run Windows 11 seems to have gone over well.

Welp, their long-term goal is to lock down AMD and Intel-based compliant systems to be forced to execute and sign on Microsoft code alone. As in, no bootloader, no Linux, no picking the most lightweight option for your server stack if you're in IT professionally - Windows or bust. Installing Linux on machines like this would force hardware devs to issue the proper certs on their own, instead of working like they have for the past twenty or so years and just close their eyes, agree to a standard - usually Microsoft's - and hit Go. There's also talks to tie Windows Update with your system kernel, which means that in practice, the House that Gates Built could steal a page from Ubuntu and find a way to issue kernel revisions while the OS is still running. It's also possible that they could use that to push non-mandatory, but recommended updates onto you, potentially undoing previously-used features or maybe bricking your rig, depending on your hardware setup.

Seeing how Satya Nadella's response to entry-tier hardware barely managing to run Windows 11 as their stock OS was to basically shrug and go "Welp, just go buy a nicer PC! Here's a list of affiliates!", I think we can fear the worst.

If it really falls down to motherboard or chip manufacturers not taking whatever payola M$ might hit them with, we're effectively screwed. We've known for years, now, that Microsoft wants to lock down the PC ecosystem to something closer to Apple's own walled garden. Their stated pretense is usually added security at the corporate level, but I'm really dreading the future of what's both my job and my hobby if it all boils down to me choosing a locked-down box with an apple-shaped logo or a locked-down box with four squares on it.

Windows worming its way into my firmware's microcode.

The very thought makes me queasy. Oh, and all the normies are going to settle with an eye-roll and a sigh, of course. I've heard it all before. "They're making computers easier to use, isn't that a good thing?! Whatever man, you'll whine and bitch and then load up Steam to benchmark things as usual, so why the Hell do you care that much?"

This isn't about ease of use. This is about control. I own every screw, every chip, every via and fan blade in my two rigs. I own them. The data that's on them is also mine, within reason.

If Microsoft has its way, we'll all be subletting our ability to do our damn jobs, as fucking dystopian as it seems. How the fuck do you think sysadmins at the corporate level are going to take to someone at Microsoft pushing a revision on Windows 12 or whatever, and settling with a pithy apology for all the late-in-cycle computer parks and IT budgets they've just ruined? Fuck, my boss practically has a panic attack whenever one of the kids in the call centre fucks up a headset or a mouse pad; I can't imagine how she'll take to repeated wholesale overhauls of our workstations because someone at Redmond decided to shorten the shelf life of a perfectly good product!

One of the top dogs came up to me a few days back and started joshing around. "But seriously man, why are you making us use Linux, bro? Like, everyone knows Windows!"

I smiled. "You're running off of a reskinned Ubuntu MATE, Steve, because if I asked you to buy me ten thou's worth of Windows 11 licenses and then told you we'll need to add new hardware to make 'em run, you'd rip my badge from my jacket, piss in my trash can and send me home without so much as a please and a thank you. Using my method, all you had to deal with was one afternoon's worth of file migrations and budget enough for eight PowerPoint slides, a twenty-minute break and some extra coffee, to train everyone."

Sometimes, small-to-medium business heads can be absolute idiots.

Ableton 10.2

I have been lately considering updating from 8gb to 16gb.

Ableton makes Push and Live, hardware and software for music production, creation and performance. Ableton´s products are made to inspire creative music-making. Logic Pro X 10.2.2 or Later ( fully compatible with 10.6.X, Big Sur, and Apple Silicon ) Ableton Live ( STD or Suite ) 9.5 onwards including Live 10 and 11 Please note - this release will not work with Ableton live Intro. Ableton live 10 The last serial number for this program was added to our data base on January 20, 2016 799 visitors told us the serial is good, 86 guys said the number is bad. If I get Ableton 11, will I be able to work with my friend using Ableton 10? Mod 2 months ago. Live sets don't work in earlier versions.

I am just migrating from live8 to live9-64b.

First of all I don't use that much of memory consuming romplers, etc.... Until now AbletonLive8.exe usually consumes between 1.5GB and 3GB of RAM with a ready project but I have had to use romplers sparingly so I expect it to raise a little bit. Anyway I suppose that windows8 uses superfetching/caching to utilize the extra RAM. So what is your opinion, will 8-16 upgrade speed up workflow and project loading times even if your Live.exe would consume between 2-5GB of RAM....?
