Windows 11 is an operating system with major differences in reality, not just because of the controversy caused by the new start button centered. The specific processor and TPM requirements of this operating system mean that a large percentage of users will not be able to upgrade to this operating system.
In other words, if your PC was manufactured before 2017, it may face obstacles when running Windows 11.
For consumers, a laptop that has been running for 4 years may look a bit old, but for business users, this device can only be regarded as a young adult.
A survey by IT management company Lansweeper added some credibility to this suspicion. They confirmed that only 44.4% of workstations meet Microsoft’s CPU requirements, because only 52.55% of workstations have TPM 2.0 chips. This means that upgrading to Windows 11 requires a lot of capital investment, which makes it unlikely that companies will transition to the latest system anytime soon. Of course, in terms of software, since Windows 11 looks completely different from Windows 10, IT executives are also worried that the cost of retraining will increase.
Since most new PCs have Microsoft operating systems, PCs that meet the upgrade conditions may automatically slowly transition to Windows 11 as the push progresses, but we may soon enter a decentralized desktop environment, similar to Windows XP It is the same as when Windows 7 is the mainstream operating system at the same time.
Microsoft will continue to support Windows 10 until 2025, but will not add major features to it.
