Am I missing something? The thread doesn't make any sense to me. The desktop wallpaper seems to be Win11's default, and as other users noted Discord and Libre Office v7.5 are not 13yo. The hardware could be 13yo, but then what?
Libreoffice must've auto updated itself until 7.5, my parents updated the OS version, and I must've downloaded Discord for something I didn't aftaully want to do
That's a lot of 'must have'.
Windows 11 requires TPM 2, late 2017 CPU at least, and UEFI, which means that your parents couldn't have updated to it without circumventing the requirements. If they did circumvent it, they can't be that technically unaware, which means they probably would have heard and possibly used LibreOffice and could have installed it themselves.
That, or, that's not a 13yo hardware.
And it's unlikely, to say the least, that Libre Office just popped up there. So, I don't see the point of the thread and there's a lot of unlikely scenarios that makes it most likely bullshit.
