"Windows users were given slips of paper to represent different operating system features and asked to arrange them in a way that they felt worked best," Microsoft said. An article called "Inside the new look and feel" explains some of the research that led to things like the redesigned (and neutered) Start menu. Microsoft also gave more background on why Windows 11 is as it is. Windows 11 comes bearing THAAS, Trojan Horse as a service.A bunch of apps will be able to bypass Microsoft's new store and use own update methods.Are you a 1%er? Windows 11 turns up in the usage figures.Chromebooks fighting for mind share at PC makers with higher-margin Windows 11 machines in the lead, says IDC.The list of fixes was longer, though there are still some "known issues" like "you might be unable to enter text when using Search from Start or the Taskbar." Lack of much new in this build may be evidence that the first release of Windows 11 is about done, fixes aside. There was not much else new for features in the build: a revised "hidden icons" flyout, a new settings shortcut in the Notification Center, new animations in the Microsoft Store and other minor tweaks. After the install completed, it finally got me back to my old working system.The red pill (and pink background) replaces flashing icons So I figured that if I install the awaiting 17107 preview, it would fix my boot block or whatever is broken in the boot loader. I chose to start Windows and it got me back.
So now I put my recovery USB back and booted to it. To make sure everything was back to normal, I rebooted and again got stuck in the logo-loop.
I took this opportunity to create a full recovery USB. I next chose to boot Windows and that actually worked. I chose the option to fix the startup but when it completed, it said there was nothing to fix. Next, move the USB to the Surface Pro and boot up recovery (it must still be on the hard drive hidden partition). I created the recovery USB from a Surface Pro 3 (my work PC) unchecking the save-system-files. I could see its light flash several times but then it gave up and returned to the normal failing boot logo flash so I tried a different 8Gb USB which did work.Īs explained in the link above, to boot the Surface Pro to a USB, press & hold Vol Down press power once after logo displays, release Vol. I was able to boot my Surface Pro back to where I was using a bootable recovery drive.
