I don't understand how can critical buisness machines which work perfectly fine be switched to windows 11?
We have a machine at work which is beefy and works as a server and backups for many many years on windows 10. Why the hell should I upgrade my buisness critical system ?? Why would I take my risk breaking stuff. I am sure there are millions of critical systems running gon windows 10 which should not be distribed at any means, what would Microsoft do about them.
I don't know what kind of software that particular machine runs, but for server and backup Linux appears to be the go to tool. I'm not saying that you have to migrate everything to Linux. I just say that for servers and the like the transition is probably easier than for desktop.
