Microsoft Windows 10 will reach its end of life in October 2025, prompting users to consider upgrading to Windows 11. Many users are hesitant to upgrade due to hardware compatibility issues, and Microsoft has closed off a workaround that allowed bypassing hardware checks for installation. Approximately 70% of users may face challenges as the deadline approaches. Microsoft is also focusing on AI initiatives, including the introduction of "Copilot+ PCs," which are expected to increase in availability and contribute to recurring AI subscription revenues. The re-emergence of the Recall feature raises privacy concerns while offering potential benefits, and Windows 11 includes new capabilities for indexing video and audio files. The transition to Windows 11 and the evolution of AI offerings will be crucial for users still on Windows 10.
