As shortly as just a few months ago Microsoft was claiming that Windows 10 was a lifetime operating system and would not be releasing Windows 11.

I’m just fine with Windows 10 ... but only because there’s a free program that makes it look and act like Windows 7.

Use an emulator like Nox or BlueStacks for running android apps

So you have till 2025 to buy a new computer with the TPM module installed. Yet Another Upgrade... It never ends. I’m sure that if they decomm Windows 10 I’m going to see if the Linux versions have improved their PnP capability.

And how will it eff up your online activities?

Windows 10 stole my Microsoft Office stuff when it updated. It required me to enter a code that I had no idea where to find, from the initial purchase. Instead of buying it again I installed a different system.
