It’ll likely get worse from here on out.
With Windows 10’s end-of-life date fast approaching, people on the older operating system have a choice to make. They can either extend their Windows 10 support, go for an alternate OS, or upgrade to Windows 11. And while Microsoft will let you do any of those, it would rather like it if you decided to chuck out your old PC and shell out for a new one. Perhaps one of those new Copilot+ devices?
As such, while Microsoft has thrown Windows 10 users a lifeline by offering them ways to extend support for another year, its end goal is to get those people upgrading to Windows 11 sooner rather than later. And while its «upgrade to Windows 11» pester screens are by no means new, there’s a good chance they’ll become more elaborate and common as Microsoft attempts to wind down Windows 10 for good.
