Microsoft is launching a new Windows version. I thought Windows 10 would be permanent, like a subscription service, with any future updates needed. What happened?

Checked my computer on Sunday…
…and it stated that it was eligible for Win11. We’ll see! I started having issues a couple of weeks ago after some type of update. Computer was slower than molasses in January and took forever to load anything. I went back to June 14th and did a Restore at that point. I would have liked an earlier restore point but that was the earliest offered. Computer is working better now, but there was something in that update that it did not like.

I have a laptop that is "good" for W11, but I will NOT be upgrading past W10. It too has seemed to run slower since the beginning of the year. I suppose the hardware is being bogged down by all the W10 tasks.
I would suspect that W11 will be gathering even more ihformation to be sent to MS for whatever purpose they deem profitable.

Microsoft 11`requirements
Microsoft 11`looks great but neither my Surface nor my laptop are able to use it. Neither are that old. I can't believe that Microsoft is making it so difficult to use. Does it expect people to go out and buy new hardware.
Why, yes! Yes the do. That's

Above post answered for this post
I have an optional offer of an update (2021-06 cumulative update)for Windows 10 20H2.
Does anyone know what this is and if I should do it? This is the first Optional update offer I have had.

Windows 10 21H1
The Windows 10 21H1 update is still not being offered to everyone based on their hardware configuration. It is not available to me on my old ASUS laptop. Additionally, all the 20H2 cumulative updates have failed on this 12 year old laptop since March. The message issued by the update service is "This update is not appropriate for your hardware" or something like that. I have tried all the mitigation steps for this error published by Microsoft and others without success. So I have concluded that there is something in this old hardware that truly is not compatible with the newer updates. This happened once before on this laptop ... I think it was when 20H1 was first available. Went for months without being able to update the 2004 version or upgrade to 20H1 ... then all of a sudden I got a message that 20H1 was available for my hardware. Maybe the same will happen again, but I will not be surprised if this is the end of the road for this old device.

Old laptop
I fired up my old laptop, which I bought used a few years ago, to get the latest Windows 10 update. It's a Lenovo Thinkpad T510. After the update, I followed the advice on this thread and ran tpm.msc from a command prompt and as I guessed I would see, it showed no TPM. The TPM display showed that I could click "Prepare the TPM," so I gave it a shot. That prompted a request to shut down and restart with a caution that I should watch the restart since I'd be asked for a response. The restart brought me to something like a "Not enabled, do you want to enable?" so I went for it. Overall, good news and bad news. The good is that this old laptop has a TPM module. The bad is that it's version 1.6 and I think Windows 11 requires 2.0 or higher.
It's a "slow as molasses" PC but I keep it around and updated as a backup if the desktop fails or has issues.
I offer this in case your PC appears not to have a TPM and that it's worth checking the "Prepare TPM" and see what comes of it. Good luck.

Older MSI laptop running windows 11 now
I have a five year old gaming MSI laptop with a gtx1060 gpu and i7 6700cpu that is running windows 11 right now that failed the health check. I do have 2.0 TMP and secure boot running on the laptop, but it failed the test because the CPU isn't listed as a required CPU. It's too old. The computer runs fine on windows 11 and Microsoft should allow older CPS to run under windows 11. My laptop is not running slow under Windows 11.

I also have a T510 running Win 10 Pro that is used by the wife. Several years ago I swapped out the HDD to a SATA Samsung 850 EVO and it is surprisingly fast. It probably boots to the desktop in about 60 seconds.
Extremely easy upgrade by the way with the Samsung Magician software that came with the drive.

Windows 11 Update
Just installed the preview I had to enable the TPM before it installed so far no problems. This is on a spare pc not my main the version is 21H2 22000.51
Did a small update made it 53, but my browser (Firefox and Edge) acted up on some sites like video wouldn't open my laymen's thoughts are they were not compatible to windows 11 yet sooooo I reinstalled it back to windows 10 everything working fine.

Turned on computer on and it said a restart is needed to update so I restarted the computer.
I then went to updates and there were none, not even the optional one that was offered. I guess it updated on it's own. I did go to optional updates and I have 3 driver updates for Intel-System from July 18, 1968 and that state if you have a problem these might help (I know of no problems). There are 2 Hp Inc under the driver updates for firmware and software but no date.
I will not install these for now.
My PC is only a couple of years old but it just doesn't like Windows updates.

You may be in the situation alandb outlines above on his post. "The Windows 10 21H1 update is still not being offered to everyone based on their hardware configuration".
I would still run the troubleshooter to see if problems exist with getting the updates . Go to All Settings, type in troubleshoot. Click on Troubleshoot Other Problems, then click Windows Update and last click on Run The Troubleshooter.

May be they will do
May be they will do something about it. They may re-write their registry? Hack word sounds scary. Let me rephrase my words. It is a Windows registry tweak to bypass TPM check. Again it is technical so not everybody will be able to do it.

Yeah, they don't promise
Yeah, they don't promise over 10 years. They know technology is going to change and don't want to support older platforms forever.
Microsoft says you can’t cheat to install Windows 11
Since then, we found out exactly why even some newer PCs might tell you initially that they can’t run Windows 11 and how to fix the problem. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/technology/sorry-microsoft-sa....
Make sure to click on, How to fix the problem.
Now that you know what to blame for that Windows 11 upgrade error, it’s easy to fix the problem. Just head over to the BIOS section of your PC, and search for TPM under the names above. The setting is usually found in the advanced settings or security settings. Whether it’s Intel PTT or AMD PSP fTPM, turning them on should fix your Windows 11 upgrade problems.

One Down, One To Go Awaiting Windows 11
On my custom built desktop PC from 2018 with an Asus Prime Z-370-A processor, I checked in Device Manager and there was no “Security Devices” option found. A Google search indicated this option was likely onboard, just not activated.
In any event, I found a recent Asus BIOS update, PRIME-Z370-A-ASUS-3004.CAP, dated 8/26/2021, that included Trusted Platform Module 2.0 that will make my PC compatible for the pending Windows 11 update.
I downloaded the 16 MB BIOS update and installed it using EZ Flash. Now the “Security devices” shows in Device Manager and I’m ready for Windows 11, I hope.
Next in line will be to check my Asus Zenbook UX305FA laptop to see if it requires the same or similar update to make it compatible for Windows 11 update.
No windows 10 update
Two years back my desktop was only 5 years old and I tried to update from Windows seven to 10, it ran a diagnostic and came back telling me my computer was to old and could not be upgraded to Windows ten, it recommended to buy a new computer.I have used the computer for the two years and have finally taken Microsofts advice and bought a new computer
I bought a Mac and so far loving it, sorry Microsoft.
