The upcoming shift from Windows 10 to Windows 11 has raised concerns among users about hardware compatibility and the new Trusted Platform Module (TPM) requirements.
Around 250 million devices could face difficulties due to the end of support of the Windows 10 Operating System, leaving users with the choice of sticking with their current system or investing in new hardware.
The problem arises from Microsoft’s strict hardware requirements for Windows 11, particularly the requirement for TPM 2.0. Without it, installation and functionality may be compromised. Users are disappointed at the prospect of missing out on the promised improvements of Windows 11, but continuing with an unsupported Windows 10 poses security risks.
Microsoft has committed to supporting Windows 10 until 2025, but the dilemma remains for users who are eagerly awaiting Windows 11 but still run older hardware. The upgrade’s impact is significant for users worldwide, prompting tough decisions about their future computing plans.
