I don't use CafeTrans currently, but it worked on Win 10 when I had it and Win 11 not so much different.
When you are upgrading from Win 10 to Win 11, there's option to keep your files from Win 10 untouched.

I use Win 10 drivers for GT730 on my Win 11,(there's no official Win 11 drivers) just selected that option and everything works like charm.

Anyway, Win 11 looks more like most Linux systems, even now there's Open in Terminal=Microsoft Shell on right click, and the right click menus and the graphical interface are like most Linux, and there's centered dock taskbar like Mac OS.

You could also try as last resort to reinstall CafeTrans on Win 11 in compatibility mode (Win 7 or whatever), but I'm not sure about the license.


EDIT:

It works! Just install it on my Win 11.

Follow those steps when you are upgrading to Win 11 and no worries.

Yes, CafeTran Espresso runs on Windows 11:

About migration: Installing CafeTran Espresso on a new computer? Then you will probably need a new license key.

If you're installing CafeTran Espresso on the same computer where you were running Windows 10, chances are you won't need a new license key.

If you customized CafeTran Espresso's user interface, you can export CafeTran Espresso's settings via Edit > Preferences > Export on the Windows 10 machine and import the CTEPreferences.xml file into CafeTran Espresso on Windows 11.

If you have customized your spelling dictionary, abbreviation files, segmentation rules, etc., I can give you instructions on how to migrate them.*)

Both on Windows 10 and Windows 11, CafeTran Espresso is installed in:

C:\Users\your_user_name\AppData\Local\CafeTran\


*) Best to use a good file commander like free DoubleCommander for that:
