So basically, for the last week my dad's old laptop have been absolutely wrecked by update. His laptop restarts while in use without warning, it forces updates and literally bluescreens because of it, all sorts of Windows update process and "compatibility telemetry" are taking 90% of the CPU and memory resources and when I kill them then force restart, the laptop lags like hell for a moment.

So what I'm saying, is Microsoft secretly fucking up with old PCs and laptops that are still good enough to run 10 but can't upgrade to 11? Like what Apple did with their old phones? I've been trying to look for information about this yet none of the tech sites turns up anything.

    My windows 10 works well so far. My system is so old that it says "Cannot upgrade to Windows 11" not compatible or something even though it's like 6th gen i5.
