Support for windows 11/ older devices
Hello
It looks like, unfortunately, older computers will not receive the update for Windows11
But for sure Windows10 will still be supported until October 2025 - and there will be no new hardware requirements for computers running and installed Windows10.
Security and specific processor architecture is a must in Windows11 - priority ( 0 - trust ) is key in this case and this cannot be changed.
Thanks for the topic Good luck

very sad to hear this, and to hear no that I can still use win10 until Oct 2025 does not make me happy and it is as I said before Microsoft obliges me at least in 2025 to buy total new hardware of about 1000 € and in 2025 I have to throw my device in the trash because then it is no longer safe and it becomes unusable.
great job Microsoft and thanks for all those years of loyalty !- DeletedSep 14, 2021
Yes, but the IT market is moving forward all the time, Microsoft partners, cloud providers and providers of other products require more performance and security from Windows.
I understand that for the benefit of users due to the high possibility of system failure
not compatible computers will not be updated to the windows11 version.
We have 4 years to replace computers - I think their price will be lower - as standard.
