during Windows 11 installs

This requirement is unacceptable.
Now, how long until they figure out having a completely functional desktop while it installs?
- You’ll have in-app purchases during the installation and you’ll be happy.
- If only somebody could figure out how to do that. They could call it a "Live CD" or "Live USB" environment which people could utilize during the install...
I was going to say pinball like on windows xp
That would be cool, if we still installed Windows from CDs and DVDs. But last time I installed Windows 10, it took 2-3 minutes to finish (excluding the OOBE prompts), so it's not very helpful...
Distraction is next to godlessness
How about telling the user what is going on?
Nice, last time the actual installation was finished in about 1.5mins. Guess I wont play it at all.
