Microsoft blocks registry trick that unlocked performance-boosting native NVMe driver on Windows 11 — workarounds still exist to enable support, however (www.tomshardware.com)

The registry trick came with caveats, though. Third-party SSD management tools like Samsung Magician and Western Digital Dashboard were not compatible with the new driver, and BitLocker could trigger recovery prompts after the driver swap.

If you ever decide to set aside time to tackle a re-install, you should consider setting up a file system that supports snapshots, or since you're used to only using flatpaks, an immutable distro. Then you won't fear updates because you can easily roll back as if they didn't happen.
