Today’s blog post is here to serve as a Windows 10 Public Service Announcement.
Windows 11 not really free
Windows is planning on launching Windows 11 this fall and gleefully has said the update will be free.
No, that is not true.
Windows has created a list of requirements to run Windows 11, and a large number of PCs will not pass the mustard.
I stumbled upon this information by accident. Instead of searching for Windows 10 remote desktop in YouTube, I searched it for Windows 11. There, I saw nothing about the remote desktop but a lot about not being able to download the free upgrade.
Checked both my computers
And neither passed the requirement check. I am not overly upset about my main PC because I hope in the near future to have a new one built. But I am upset about my Samsung Spin (laptop/tablet combo) which has been so reliable and it suits my needs for a mobile PC.
It did not pass the one requirement most PCs will not pass and that is the CPU. My main PC that I want to replace missed by three items. Not shocking.
Also known as impotence, most men suffering ED can overcome their problems by taking medication. online pharmacy for levitra The levels can be checked with the help of reviews, you can find a reliable online pharmacy and enjoy a secure ordering process. prices cialis Fortunately different medical browse around for source cheap viagra remedies are there to cure this sexual problem. From being hospitalized to the treatment, nothing comes free viagra uk free or easy.
This is obviously a money grab by Microsoft. Imagine the amount of computers in use that will not be able to download Windows 11. My Spin is just three years old. My main PC, which still works fine by the way, is four years old.
More bad news
And the other shoe to drop is that Windows will only support Windows 10 through the fall of 2025. So, in four years, even PCs bought today without the required CPU will be rendered useless.
If you are planning on purchasing a new Windows computer I would wait. Unless you have it built and the tech knows what is going to be needed, do not trust a store bought PC unless you know for sure by your own research that you will be able to upgrade to Windows 11.
Those on YouTube who are much more tech savvy than me will tell you that there are computers for sale right now that will never be able to update to Windows 11.
Hang on to your money until you know you will not be getting screwed by Microsoft. Take this Windows 10 Public Service Announcement seriously.
