I don't want to be that guy, but why use Windows at that point?

An OS is a tool.
And you are a tool if you use the wrong tool for a purpose.
E.g. an essential program that only runs on windows and is either impossible or troublesome to run elsewhere.

I agree. That's why I wouldn't install Windows 11 on an unsupported CPU in the first place, let alone keep it installed after having one issue after another like the comment I replied to had mentioned.

Seems like the wrong tool to me.
