I just received my new laptop and if you were wondering how it is going with #Windows, I had to look up how to install Windows 11 without signing up with a Microsoft account (I have one, I just don’t want to use it) and download a third-party executable from GitHub to be able to move the taskbar to the right of my screen where it’s been for the past dozen of years or so. The Windows 11 taskbar doesn’t support this feature anymore, but the third-party tool is able to switch the taskbar to the Windows 10 version because of course it was still in there somewhere.
I also looked into moving my personal files from my old laptop to the new one and officially Microsoft only recommends using OneDrive (via a cloud upload and then download) or an external device (via a transfer to the device and then back from it).
No info on direct transfer on the same Wi-Fi network and I’m starting to understand why, sharing a folder from the old computer with open permissions makes it appear on the new computer’s network view but actual access is denied for vague permissions issues with no suggested resolution path.
I will not take questions at this point but I would appreciate some #help .

•@Hypolite Petovan I have no help to offer, but only sympathy for those who are forced by their employer to use an OS not of their choice.
Hope you can get it solved and get some #help ! 🍀
