Yeah Win11 will probably be a noticeable performance hit on that. Especially Explorer which they made dog slow when adding tabs and the new context menu.

The Office apps and browser will probably be about the same.

I'm running Windows 11 on a 12 year old X79 platform. Runs just fine.

But it was definitely top of the line in its day and 48GB of RAM keeps any system relatively snappy.

And then, even if they do pay out, they just jack up your rates to make it all back. That's if they don't just drop your coverage completely.

Then you apply the scientific method and/or research in search of truth.

My wife doesn't like it when I introduce her as my ex-girlfriend.

You're not missing much. A few modern file types are zips with expected folder structures, especially MSOffice files. But this is nowhere near universally true.

You can open a file in your text editor of choice and if you see it start with PK (for Phil Katz the creator of the format and the original PKZIP/PKUNZIP programs) then it's probably a zip.

Also, by the logic of the OP, all DLLs are EXEs.

The FTC actions at least are because of Lina Khan and we better protect her. The billionaires are actively trying to get Kamala to drop her.
