    Could it dramatically rise after 2025 when Windows 10 reaches EOL?

    There are millions and millions of very powerful computers unable to run windows 11 because the Microsoft marketing department decided so

      Not likely. There has been plenty of opportunities, Windows Xp, Windows 7, etc - there was no dramatic rise.

        Yes but almost any old PC made in the last two decades can be upgraded to windows 10. Even an athlon64 from 2003, can run it, if it has enough RAM. The same can’t be said for windows 11, which accepts only the newest processors

      I honestly think it’s more likely they will continue to run Win 10, but without updates.
