After installing Windows 11, many users usually start using the system without checking important default settings. While the operating system works out of the box, skipping some of the initial configurations can lead to performance issues, privacy concerns, or even trouble recovering your device if something goes wrong later.
Some of the most overlooked settings include enabling System Restore, understanding BitLocker recovery keys, adjusting some basic power and privacy preferences, checking if device drivers are installed correctly, and setting up regular backups.
