      CAN’T be upgraded

      *to windows 11.

      There’s lots of OSs out there. Plenty will just keep using win 10, others will move to various flavors of linux, and others still will continue to stick with win 7/XP as they always have. (yes, I know people still actively using XP)

      Windows 10 no longer receiving updates doesn’t make those computer’s cease to function. Hell some even consider the lack of updates a great new feature.

      Well, a lot of them that officially “can’t” actually can, but it’s a much bigger PITA than if the machine has the “required” specs.

      Setup.exe /product server ;) Not a magic bullet, but helps in many cases. You have to use older ISO, thou.
