Ah, thanks. My outdated system is half 11, half 10, LOL:

Microsoft can wait forever for me to buy new hardware just to satisfy their "new" (and mostly unchanged) OS. The current one is just fine, although I can't break it enough to warrant a version upgrade. :lol:

P.S. I'll see if I can find some TPM related setting in BIOS though, just for fun.

Rumor has it that they may well lower the limits on the CPU. You might get in yet. They are not likely to relax the TPM or Secure Boot or UEFI requirements.

Take some getting used to a few things, and I need to do some research on how to turn off some crap I don't need, but Win11 seems ok so far. Seems to work just fine with Rainmeter. I'm not getting the issue with the rounded corners on context menus so far.

Looks like Windows is still reporting Windows 10 instead of Windows 11 to things that ask the Registry...
Windows 10 Pro (64-Bit)
Version 2009
Build 22000.65
AMD Ryzen 7 2700X Eight-Core Processor
Running at: 4028 Mhz
Should be:
Edition Windows 11 Pro
Update 21H2
Installed on ‎7/‎8/‎2021
OS build 22000.65
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 421.17400.45.3
I'm guessing there is a new place in the Registry for this, or they just haven't updated it everywhere yet.

The About dialog uses the same information as the SysInfo plugin. We just haven't updated it yet....since it has only been around for a couple of days. :D

Your context menus are always rounded?

Most programs seem to have only first context menu with rounded corner, then switch back to classic style.
There are some exceptions like nvidia control panel or sumatrapdf.

Windows 11 still contains a lot of Windows 10 string so it is not strange that About dialog report Windows 10.

I got the update this morning. Also tried to clean reinstall Rainmeter but I still have the same problem.

Meh. It's not a showstopper anyway.

Huh... I simply can't get that to happen. I always get rounded context menus.
