Hi Reza, we fully hear your concerns. The reason behind the new requirements are designed to ensure that devices function and remain secure - learn more here: https://blogs.windows.com/windows-insider/2021/06/28/update-on-windows-11-minimum-system-requirements/ . I would love to highlight that Windows 10 will continue to be supported until 2025 and we will ensure it remains protected and supported until that time. :) Following on that, do you have a large concern for your particular hardware refresh cycle / device types? We have found most enterprises refresh devices every 3-5 years. Would be great to learn more about your experiences. 🙂

Hi Aria, this is my concern , 4 years is too short. Could you believe I am still seeing devices running Windows 7 and even though they have Window 10 license, they haven't upgrade yet. Imagine, when we ask them purchase a new PC. And sometimes, devices are act as a public PC, like Kiosk, Public Network and minimum tasks and we might be able to persuade them to upgrade to newer Windows but asking them to purchase a new device is very hard.
