On October 14, 2025, Microsoft will cease delivering updates to Windows 10 PCs unless users pay for the Extended Security Updates program, marking a significant shift.
Users trying to upgrade to Windows 11 on older hardware will face obstacles, as Microsoft strictly enforces processor and TPM requirements without plans for revision.
Despite Microsoft's restrictions on upgrading, there are workarounds available but they require a system compliant with other Windows 11 requirements such as UEFI and TPM.
To upgrade, ensure your PC is set to UEFI mode and that TPM version 1.2 or higher is enabled; failing to do so will result in installation failure.
