Please tell me this will be back ported to Windows 10!

I'm curious, Marc, if this is only available in Windows 11, would that be a driver to help you convince your bosses and other teams that you should start the Windows 11 migration?- Greg_C_GilbertOct 26, 2022Iron ContributorI suspect most large companies won't adopt this until 2025 after W10 support ends if W10 isn't supported. Even if we get most of our PCs migrated to 11, I can guarantee, there will be a few stragglers on 10 right up until the end. Please consider this as a reason to backport this to 10.
- Marc_LafOct 26, 2022Iron ContributorUnfortunately not. We recently performed a full fleet device refresh and we're usually on a 3 year cycle for these things. I honestly don't know if the current devices even fully support Windows 11 but the bigger reason is the user interruption. We all know users LOVE change from IT and I realize Windows 11 isn't that big of a departure from 10 (as it was from 7 to 10) but the amount of grumbling that happens isn't nice to hear and deal with.

For now answer is "maybe". A win10 backport is definitely under consideration, not to get your hopes up too much, final approvals still pending.
