Good morning
The question is more aimed at people who want to stay with Windows 10 and do not want to switch to 11:
What are you doing to stay on Windows 10? Because I don't see any added value in paying for security updates.
The others are of course also very welcome!

After replacing the HDD in our laptop with an SSD yesterday and installing Windows 10 via USB stick, I wanted to do the same on our 2015 PC. Now I see that it has an empty 16GB SSD installed alongside a 1TB HDD. Now I have two questions: 1) Could the 16GB be enough for…
If a company hires an IT service provider, what are the hourly rates? P.S. I don't want links to articles from 2021, because a lot has changed since then. I just want your own experiences.
Good evening dear IT community, I'd like to replace the CPU and motherboard on my old PC. It's running TrueNAS Scale. It currently has an Intel Core 2 Quad on the LGA 775 socket with an mATX board. It's limited to 8GB of RAM (because I can't fit any more). I'd like to upgrade to…
Hello everyone, The day before yesterday, I was playing God of War on my PC. In the middle of a cutscene, the game simply crashed. Now the game won't run, so I checked my AMD RADEON RX 6800. It had simply been uninstalled, and when I install it now, I get the following message (see…
Hello my steam account was hacked I wanted to write to the support but as an answer I always only get the I have also tried to contact you from my other email address and the same thing happened What is that ?
Just try Linux Mint from Livestick. You can install this when it suits you as a dual-boot system next to Windows and use it for Internet activities, Office etc. And if you want to shock any games that don’t run there, you’ll take your old Windows, but then without the above activities. Could work a few more years.
You don’t need security updates if you use the device with an unsupported operating system OFFLINE.
For online use, it is in your own interest to switch to a current operating system for which there are security updates. For how do you want to make sure that you did everything you could to comply with the GDPR? Although it is quite silent about “current state of the art”, this does not satisfy an operating system for which there are no security updates….
So there are only two options for online use:
a) switch to a current operating system
b) use the paid update supply for an outdated operating system.
Use OFFLINE (on older devices that are not suitable for W11 unless there is an alternative in the form of Linux).
Do you think you could use an anti-virus software?
Does it mean installing Windorws 11? I was planning to make myself smart the next time.
Would advise you to test a Linux in a virtual machine so that you can end up with Windows 10 support.
My tip for you to try out is Linux Mint or Ubuntu are both very stable systems.
Pay money? I could upgrade from 10 to 11.
Before Win xp got a firewall, you had a virus faster than you could download and update a virus scanner. Win has 10,000de errors, few can be taken as a vulnerability.
I meant to pay for security updates
Hey,
If you don’t get any more security updates, you should definitely change.

I remain with Gnu/Linux. 😀
Either Win11 or a current Linux.
Notification
I’ll stay until the updates are no longer free and maybe 1 more year. Then I change to Win 11
So October next year it will be ready…
Then I’ll stay until then. I mean, I grew up with Win 10
I grew up with Windows XP and don’t use it anymore. All old rubbish systems are far too uncertain. But you can, of course, pay for security updates, probably until the next change.
I grew up with Windows 95 and still don’t use it anymore. 🤔
I will install Win11 on my oldie (v. 2013) during this year with the help of Rufus
