Installing Windows 11 / recommendations:

Burning a disk image :
Burn a disc image to a USB flash drive using UltraISO programs or burn at slow speed to a DVD disc

Installing Windows 11 Pro :
Install Windows 11 Pro 22H2 22621,2134?64 by SanLex [Lightweight] [En-Ru] only on a clean formatted SSD / HDD partition in order to avoid misunderstandings, unnecessary questions and unnecessary proceedings. It is recommended to install the assembly with the Internet turned off. After installation, it is recommended to perform an initial reboot of the PC.
If the assembly was installed on an HDD hard drive, then it is strongly recommended to do an initial defragmentation using a hard drive defragmentation program, and after installing additional applications/large programs inclusive - after which the performance of the HDD will increase significantly.

Installing Microsoft updates :
Windows 11 Pro 22H2 22621,2134?64 by SanLex [Lightweight] [En-Ru] is configured so that future updates from Microsoft will be installed stably.

Driver installation :
Installing drivers through Windows Update will install them manually, just like Microsoft updates. We go along the path: Settings> Updates and Security> Windows Update> run "Check for updates", after which an additional line "optional updates" will appear - go> click the ">" icon - check the boxes of your choice or in all the items of the proposed drivers for your PC > install > wait for installation to complete > reboot the PC.

Installing drivers using alternative tools :
Snappy Driver Installer Origin / (Official updated distribution), Driver Easy, PC HelpSoft Driver Updater, Driver Reviver
Note : It is advisable to install drivers from the official website of your PC manufacturer.

Recommendations :
After each update or clean installation of Windows, it is advisable to clean up the WinSxS folder on the local drive C:\ SSD or HDD drives, first make sure that everything is working correctly and stable.
After opening a command prompt as Administrator, enter or copy and paste the command:
Dism.exe /online /cleanup-image /StartComponentCleanup, press the "Enter" key and wait for the process to complete.

Compression to save space on the local drive C:\ SSD or HDD drives using Compact OS technology :
To carry out the process: run the command line as Administrator, enter or copy and paste the command compact.exe /CompactOS: always, press the "Enter" key and wait for the process to complete.
To return the system to its original state: run the command line as Administrator, enter or copy and paste the command compact.exe /CompactOS: never , press the "Enter" key and wait for the process to complete.
Note : This process is recommended to be done on SSD solid-state drives, although problems are not observed on HDD solid-state drives. Savings on local drive C:\ SSD or HDD drives after applying Compact OS compression can be up to ~ 3.0 GB of free space. NB » Under certain conditions, a system in a compressed state may reduce performance slightly, but on most computers this will not be noticeable. Note : Keep in mind that there is always an option to return your files to their normal state if you notice any performance issues. In any case, it is recommended to make a backup copy before compressing system files.

Instructions for cleaning up garbage after the next Microsoft Edge browser update:
After each update, go to the path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft "EdgeCore" / C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\EdgeUpdate and delete the "EdgeCore" and "Download" folders. Note. This process will not harm the system in any way, but will save about 500 megabytes, or even more. NB ! Uninstall after each Microsoft Edge browser update.
Note : These instructions are provided if the Edge browser is installed.

For all everyday users and more specialists :

A must read!

What does "Some settings are controlled by your organization" mean:
"Some settings are controlled by your organization" messages. This message can be seen in the Update and Security menu, in Windows Update, and in many other sections. And this does not mean that your PC is controlled by other people. In the case of a home computer (if it is not connected to a corporate network), the "Organization" is not any specific company that manages the system settings. This wording implies that you do not have access to certain settings and you cannot change them.
This defender feature does not harm the system. On the contrary, it is designed to protect the OS from careless actions and unprofessional approaches. With it, the computer will not slow down, "glitch" or display dialog boxes with errors. Therefore, do not be alarmed if the message "Some settings are managed by your organization" appears in Windows 11. You will be able to work with your PC in the same way as before. However, if you need to change system settings or make new entries in the registry, you will have to disable this defender feature. If you're going to unlock it to experiment with Windows 11 system services, it's best to play it safe.
