VBScript deprecation: Timelines and next steps

I'm going to be generous and assume this is not a troll posting.

1. Visual Basic is an insecure scripting language. That's why it's being discontinued. There are other, safer, scripting languages.
2. Windows 11 does not "deletes files instead of moving them (with no warning)." When you delete something using the GUI it goes to the recycle bin. This is common knowledge if you've been using Windows for more than a day. If you go to permanently delete them using the GUI it always warns you about permanently deleting it. The exception to this is if you're using any kind of command prompt. In that case you are assumed to be a power user and know what you're doing.
3. If your application is run using VB Script, it's incredibly outdated and is clearly legacy. Seeing as VB Script is insecure, and you're in the medical field with all of its outdated applications that lead to I don't know how many computer security issues over the past couple years, you would be well advised to search for more modern and secure applications. Let your IT staff know that Microsoft is doing this and, if they can, will be more than happy to help you. I'm sure they're aware of Microsoft's goal of making your computer more secure.
4. No operating system is "playing with itself." They are doing tasks under the hood to keep applications working in such a way that the data is interoperable. As operating systems become more complex with more features it's possible more advanced hardware may be required. Machines that ran Windows 7 back in the day do not have the horsepower required to run Windows 11 effectively. I know, I've tried. This has been the case since day 1 with operating systems: OS upgrades eventually mean hardware upgrades. These days, hackers are going to exploit every security hole they can find. Newer hardware is faster and more secure by design. Perhaps they'll let you upgrade your computer. Myself, I'm using a six-year-old laptop that, while not performing on modern applications as fast as it did on older applications under Windows 10, still performs admirably and has many good years of use left.
5. Recommended upgrades: more RAM and an SSD instead of spinning disk, if that's what your computer is using. Perhaps your IT department will let you upgrade some components rather than replace the computer. It's more cost-effective, except that the computer is (probably) outside of its warranty window.
6. PowerShell is a scripting language, yes. It's easy enough to run: just right-click the Start menu of any Windows 11 computer and choose "Terminal" or "Terminal (Admin)." You can use the same commands (for the most part) from the old Command Prompt environment. One exception is "dir," which is an alias for "get-childitem." If you want to see what you can do with PowerShell (it's not hard to get started) open any PowerShell prompt and type "get-help -showwindow". It'll open a scrollable and resizable window with information on how to use get-help, which is how you get help any command in the PowerShell library. For example, "get-help get-childitem -showwindow".

Good luck!
