I am running a Rufus assisted installation on incompatible hardware of Windows 11 23H2, upgraded from Windows 10. I have just done a check with Steve Gibson's "ShieldsUp!!" and the browser header is as follows:-

Isn't this a bit odd? Is this a bug in Firefox?
Shouldn't the user agent information correctly refer to Windows 11?
This installation of Windows 11 otherwise works very well.
