Most people won’t have a choice: Their current PCs won’t be able to run Windows 11 because of its stringent new hardware requirements. Some say that Windows 11 is Microsoft’s attempt to jumpstart the PC economy by making everybody buy new PCs.

But there’s no reason to rush out and buy a shiny new PC. Microsoft will continue to support Windows 10 until October 14, 2025. After that date, Microsoft won’t offer security patches for Windows 10, leaving it open to malware and cybercriminals.

When you buy your new PC, it will come with Windows 11 installed. Actually, if you wait long enough, it may come with Windows 12 installed, letting you avoid Windows 11 altogether!
