■ IT ALL SEEMED TOO GOOD to be true right? Well in fairness it is very good, and we should all be excited about its full release. However, the elephant in the room is a big one at that. You may want to get hold of Windows 11 but can you actually do that? The likelihood is that as of now, it’s not compatible at all. If your PC is over 3 years old, the odds are that it might not be compatible with Windows 11 and that is a worrying thought. Don’t however be too comfortable continuing with Windows 10 if you can’t upgrade as that now has an end-of-life date in October 2025. Even if you have a fairly new PC don’t be too relaxed as it still may not be compatible. Yikes, and yikes again for good measure.
Windows 11 is the first new version of Windows since 2015 and a major part of this new software is to do with its upgrade in security. For as long as we can remember, security online has always been an issue. So much valuable data is stored and accessed on our computers daily and this is something that we need to keep private and secure. There are plenty of different ways to protect ourselves but there is no promise that our data will not get leaked or our systems are totally secure. Of course, VPNs help and the same goes for anti-virus software too but it’s always nice to know that your OS is secure seeing as this is the foundation of your whole PC.
