Why is Mirosoft Flooding Upgrade to Windows 11

Question

Why is Microsoft flooding upgrade to Windows 11, when my Laptop is not compatable, I already have a PC with Windows 11 on that I can use, I just use my Windoww 10(Thinkpad) Laptop more.

Windows Update should really know already that my Laptop is not compatable, what it can't see my specs or CPU.. reallly, it needs too then you would not need to check it and send notifiactions not needed...?

Well you did say Windows 10 was the last Windows Mirosoft would be making and you be only making builds for it in updates instead, but then Covid happened and changed everything and why we now have Windows 11.

Ring back Bill Gates, I liked him, hes autisic like me, I see things logicly and and I am a coder too, thats why we have Microsoft, we need people who are autisic, there be no Apple too nnether... :)

Hi @nick griffin ,

Thanks for sharing your concerns to Microsoft Q&A.

To clarify a few points:

Why you're still seeing Windows 11 upgrade prompts:

Even if a device isn’t compatible, the Windows Update system may still occasionally flag the upgrade as available, particularly if some minimum requirements (like TPM or RAM) are borderline or misread. This isn't ideal and Microsoft continues to improve how eligibility is detected.

Why Microsoft continues pushing Windows 11

While it was previously said Windows 10 might be the "last version," that changed with evolving security needs and hardware innovations. Windows 11 includes features designed around newer chips and architectures, and Microsoft has shifted strategy post-COVID to focus more on hybrid work, security, and modern UI design.

Hopes this answer your questions?
