I haven't seen this yet.
It's likely just a matter of time, weather through user ignorance, Microsoft behaving badly, or both.

While I haven't personally - I fully expect this to be the case. The longer Windows 11 is out, the more machines that will automatically go, if they pass the specs.

it just is a pain in the ass when it happens.
cause 3 or 4 of the programs we install on our devices get uninstalled. -

You say this because MS is forcing upgrades on people? I sorta understand - but at the same time I see MS's POV. the fewer platforms they have to support, the easier their life is. And yes, that means they will push people to the next version, just like they kept pushing people forward on Windows 10 versions.

Are you sure they are actually removed and that the desktop wasn't just cleaned up?
I upgraded my home laptop to Windows 11 and all my shit stayed there.

Heh - I don't have to worry about Auto Upgrade as every computer I have is not compatible with it. One computer is so unsupported - 21h1 BSODs the damn thing...
I'll get 11 when I replace them,.. and I'm not about to replace every one at the same time...

Out of curiosity, how many workstations would that entail?

At the min - five: Two adults and three kids. If I decide that I need to dedicate one to the Laser - that could be Linux- so anything 'as old as three years' would be fine. I think I remember reading that LightBurn is cross platform - in which case - IDC - I could use one of the device I have moved to Ubuntu...
ETA - As many as four will likely need to be 'gaming class' computers.

No -- pffft... i could careless there - We are about to order 20 devices when we migrate to the new office... so - no issue with $$ there - not at Lenovo pricing for a laptop.

Windows 10 will never automatically upgrade to Windows 11 without user action and consent by default.
