Thanks for the info . Up until now I would get notifications offering me the option to upgrade to Windows 11 but I always declined . This is the first time I’ve seen the blue circle in the icon at the bottom right of my screen next to speaker volume icon . I’m a PC dummy ; I don’t even know what the icon is . It’s rectangular and has 2 arrows in it pointing left and right .
I went through this same type of irritation with Windows XP, Windows 7, and Windows 10. I don’t like being forced to upgrade the operating system in a computer that I have setup and working the way that I like. As often as not forced upgrades turn out not to be very helpful.
I usually end up upgrading to a different operating system because I have purchased a new computer that came with it.
