Default Win11 and GCA

Has anyone been brave (or foolhardy) enough to install Win 11 yet, and if so, will GCA 4 (or 5 beta) run on it?

I've been running Win 11 for a while, on the current public release now. Both GCA4 and GCA5 run perfectly.

Win11 has been excellent, thus far. If you have a relatively new computer with the required hardware, I would recommend it. It certainly won't be an issue with GCA.

Same, I can confirm that GCA 5 beta run well on W11

I won't use it until I have no choice or they fix it* but GCA5 isn't the reason :)

* : I need my taskbar to the left side where it belong.

I believe you can do that: https://www.pcgamer.com/windows-11-taskbar-left/

I don't have the required hardware on my test machines, so I haven't been able to try Windows 11, and I can't confirm that this works.

Sadly, that's not what I wish.
The option you link align the icon in the taskbar to the left instead of centered, but the taskbar itself remain horizontal at the bottom of the screen.
I am used to have the taskbar vertical on the left of the screen, and that option have been removed.

Either way, GCA will work no matter where the icon end up :)

You need to change it in the registry to do that - it's easy. The video below explains it and shows you how to do it:
