lets be real, the Windows 11 requirements are stupid, its just reskinned Windows 10. im pretty sure if my PC can run windows 10, it can run 11 too. Microsoft's just running out of money and want you to buy new hardware (like the surface) from their website, and I AINT HAVIN IT

You should be able to get an ISO for 11 from MS's website, after you do so change some registry keys to make the computer think it supports Windows 11. Install and enroll in the Insider program for updates.

Windows 11's requirements are Vista's but any PC can still run it fine.

(Just switch to Linux - You don't want 11, it's more bloated than 10's Candy Crush Start Menu)

i haven't had a huge issue with bloatware in windows 10 or 11
i just uninstalled all of it

There's some of it that you can't uninstall.
1. Copilot
2. Edge

One more thing has anyone had problems installing 24h2?

Also, when my sister rebooted her PC this morning, opened Chrome, and pressed “Restore Tabs” they all popped up in Edge. Why Microsoft?????????

Yes. My 23H2 kept saying I need to upgrade, so I did it. It restarted and just 30 secs later booted normally. I was surprised it was done so quick. Wrong. I go to Settings > Windows Update and it said that there was an error while installing the update. Microsoft, what’s wrong with my PC that I bought from you?

I really don't think it's possible. Edge is pretty much baked into the OS.
I really want it to be uninstallable

Everything is uninstallable- although in this case I would kinda recommend against it, so that you have something if you accidentally delete your other browser(s). Yeah, it's not the best browser- and it's privacy features are trash- but you can download other browsers from it.

“Added trust of Microsoft” how ironic

Well, you could do something like download Firefox, or download Chromium directly (as Microsoft isn't going to try to prevent their own devs from getting Chromium's source code) and build it.

you should try firefox.
it is similar to edge, but more privacy-friendly, especially with some about:config tweaks and some extensions
