A new patch is being quietly pushed to Windows 10 (and 11) PCs

It’ll force upgrades in certain circumstances to keep the PC in support

This update will mean more nag prompts coming to your PC

How is it gonna nag me to upgrade to Windows 11 when I don't have a TPM?

I'd love to upgrade, the system is completely capable of running it, but because it doesn't have a useless bit of hardware I can't. Fuck em.

It's not useless. It will enable MS to build the walled garden they want, where you are forced to use the software they permit you to and nothing else.
