Forcing users to ditch WIndows 10? I can’t help but feel like this is a giant media campaign by microsoft to make people switch to Win 11. Nobody is forcing anyone to do anything. I can still use Windows XP if I want to.
Corporate users will find it unacceptable to use an OS without regular security updates. Individual users will do whatever they want as per usual. Unfortunately without the security updates, the average Windows 10 user is going to be less and less secure over time, although MS will undoubtedly patch major things.
The machine I have to use at work was updated to windows 10 two months ago. One of the software we use for our job is hosted on a VM running Windows 98.
I’ve worked in manufacturing, definitely supported some 98 machines in recent memory. But even in industrial settings they’re segmented on a vlan with absolutely no connectivity beyond what’s needed, behind heavy duty firewalls.
