Microsoft shames unsupported Windows 11 PCs and latest update causes SSD performance issues.
Microsoft is using a watermark on desktops that says "System requirements not met" to encourage users to upgrade their hardware to support Windows 11. However, the constant reminder can be annoying and insulting. Microsoft has released an official way to remove the watermark by modifying Group Policies. This move is odd and passive-aggressive, as Microsoft doesn't have plans to block Windows 11 updates on unsupported devices.
