So the need to purchase a new computer can be deferred. My laptop was bought ready to upgrade to W11 which it did. Bought quite a while ago. I'm getting messages telling me they will not continue with updates after Oct I think. So even though I'm running W11 now not sure how it will go later this year. Good excuse to go see one of my sons the tech savvy one, he puts me right with this stuff. 2 Quote
