Each new release of Windows tugs users closer to the walled garden of the Microsoft Store.
Con Still too many legacy features
Windows 11 still has the Control Panel, Computer Managment and lots of other legacy features that originate from XP, Vista or 7.
Con Spyware
Like Windows 10, Windows 11 records everything you do, builds a profile, then sells it to a third party. Go with Linux.

OneDrive opens a folder or file a couple seconds slower on Windows 10 compared to Windows 11. Not a problem if you don't use OneDrive though.
