It doesn’t nag you incessantly to upgrade to Windows 11

My Windows 10 install doesn't do that either, although I have no idea why it gave up (AFAIK there's no reason why it wouldn't be compatible).

That happened to some of my windows 10 installs too. People complained about getting nagged and I thought they were being dramatic.

Then windows decided it was my turn to be nagged and OH MAN I understood ...

I have no good answer for exactly how that situation plays out. I swear it's not a local device setting.

On my laptop, it doesn't nag me, but it does nag my son sometimes when he logs in. My son is not admin, so I don't know why Windows bothers non-admins with this.

At least I hope non-admins can't upgrade, but knowing MS, maybe they can.

That happened to me as well. I get told in the windows update dialog thing to check if I am windows 11 compatible, which I pass but I still don't get Windows 11 offered.

Turn off TPM in your BIOS and it will quite nagging you. Windows 11 won't install without TPM 2.0.

My computer is not compatible and I still get nagged about the need to upgrade and support ending soon.
