Windows 11: In a few days Windows 11 will be released to those who receive early updates. A little later this year, it will be released to everyone else. However, Windows 11 will not work on any home computer made prior to 2017 and it will not work on many computers newer than that. Windows 10 is planned to be supported only into 2025. So, if you are planning to replace any home/office computer, be sure to purchase one fully capable of running Windows 11.
