Glad to see it! Security is a major problem (especially malware in case you haven't been paying attention) , and it is gratifying to see Microsoft upping the baseline security requirements for Windows 11--I've had TPM 2.0 for the past two years with my motherboard (see sig), btw, secure boot and the rest of it
years before that. Win10 supports all of it without a problem. And, if people are baffled & don't know what to do then just keep running Win10 which will be supported until 2025--and if Microsoft's EOL history is any guide, probably ~2027-ish...
I've never known Microsoft not to extend an EOL date.
I do not consider myself "locked down" whatsoever...
Imagine that. I'm delighted of the extra security I've had for the past several years--and which I never actually notice at all. Moving to Win11 costs nothing, and the retail license follows the customer, the OEM license follows the motherboard, exactly as it applies in Win10. The road forks here, the way of increased baseline security being the way forward. Perfectly rational and logical, imo.
