Anyone running LMS on Windows 11?

[mherger]

I was interested to know whether LMS was running reliably on Windows 11?
What would the system information in Settings/Information report?

Yes, I've had LMS on my Windows 11 PC for some months now with no problems.

It does however say this in Settings/Information

Operating system: Windows 10 - EN - cp1252

Excellent! I just failed to update my Windows 10 VM...

That's what I expected, unfortunately. I committed a small change trying
to identify Windows 11 correctly. But it's 8.3 only so far... but if you
wanted to give it a try, binaries should be available shortly.

Same for me - when I upgraded to Win 11 a few months ago, I noticed no changes whatsoever in LMS performance. And, I'm not going to mess with it!

Yesterday mine displayed the same as reported by Cloud Atlas.

Today after loading the latest nightly, it displays Win 11.

Impressive attention to detail, Michael!

Believe it or not: it was corporate tech support which came to me
wondering whether we supported Windows 11. Someone must have called them
asking, and they even cared to get the information from me !

Hi Michael, I have been running LMS on win 11 for a couple of months. It's an ASUS low-power mini desktop PC and works flawlessly with just one exception. I run version: 8.3.0 - 1641468587 @ Thu Jan 6 12:46:53 WEST 2022

The info still says: Operating system: Windows 10 - EN - cp1252
Platform Architecture: 8664

The problem I have encountered concerns the Prevent System Standby plugin which no longer functions. It's always been fine before on win 10 and RPi. Here is the logging with the PC power set to sleep after 5 minutes, whilst playing music:

at which point the PC goes to sleep.

The PC doesn't exhibit any aberrant sleep/wake behaviour the way that earlier windows versions did. I am at a loss to figure out what is happening. I can work around it with an android app to close down and wake the PC remotely but it's more clunky.
Help appreciated

I created a ticket to follow up with this, as I've seen it mentioned before:
