<p>I received a recent automatic OS update for Windows 10 which included a Windows 11 prerequisite check.</p>
<p>After navigating <strong>start -> Settings -> Update & Security</strong> saw this message:</p>
<p><strong> This PC doesn't meet all the system requirements for Windows 11.</strong></p>
<p>All my PCs - including a fairly recent Microsoft Surface - showed this message.</p>
<p>In general, I don't bother to do major upgrades unless there is a compelling reason. If I want Windows 11, I'll probably buy a new PC with Windows 11 pre-installed. Hardware is cheap.</p>
<p>Microsoft has recently published an end date of support for Windows 10 as October 14, 2025, so we should be good for at least 4 more years at this point.</p>
