      Win 10 pro never forced me but i did power cycle pretty often anyways. It did still give me bs full screen ads for win 11 though sometimes. Now im on Bazzite with minimal disruption and even some improvements to my workflow :)

      Funny, under win 10 I would wait weeks to do the updates, until I had no choice of reboot except update and reboot. At some point the machine would grind nearly to a halt with an update queued and soon as I did that update the machine would return to its regular speed.

      Neat. Maybe they’ve changed it since I last used it. Still not going back though.

        They have not changed it. You still just can configure a range of time where its not allowed to reboot. So OP is simply no power user, or is just lying. I sadly still need to use Windows on my working machine, and the forced update+reboot happens minimum once a month.
