Only when I need a new PC and 11 ships with it will I reluctantly change I stayed with Windows 7 for years after 8 and 10 came out. I only got Windows 10 because it came with a new computer. I'm with you Ray, Windows 10 will last me for the rest of my life. Noel The tires are worn. The shocks are shot. The steering is wobbly. But the engine still runs fine.
June 21, 20214 yr Moderator @birdguy, I run a second computer for flight sim support connected via WideFS and that still has Windows 7 Pro on it. Perfectly safe for what I use it for. Let’s see what 11 brings but it would have to be something exceptional for me to adopt and definitely not before support for 10 expires. Ray (Cheshire, England).

June 21, 20214 yr Let's see if Asobo's statement that MSFS2020 will be a work in progress for 10 years will bear as much truth as Microsoft's statement in 2015 that Windows 10 will be the last Windows version... 😆

I have to say that this is fantastic news, assuming it’s true and Windows 11 will eventually become a reality. Now, I can relax for a few more years while looking forward to finally escaping those recurring imposed unwanted annoyances promoted under the name of Microsoft. No more so-called “feature updates” (currently delayed for as long as delaying techniques allow), just a stable and efficient Windows 10 operating system that continues to run alongside my dual-booted, almost as efficient and reliable Windows 7. Time to be thinking of handing over the mantle of digital “progress” to the younger generations. Doubt they will see much difference in the short term anyway other than some cosmetic embellishments and the dubious adoption of misguided street cred. Recent past experience bears that out. There is a deity after all and I am feeling blessed! Sadly, and inevitably, hardware failure will eventually intervene to spoil the party...Lol! Life is never fair!

June 26, 20214 yr Does anyone know if quality updates for Windows 10 will end after the release of Win 11 and only security updates will continue until the end of support?
