Because there’s no discernable benefits. Few applications, if any, require Windows 11. The average desk worker gets new-software-paralysis any time there’s an interface change. Windows 10 is still viable and receiving updates.

The better question is: Why would companies switch?

Wtf? None of my systems can be upgraded. Win11 is a huge artificial hardware upgrade push with bullshit minimum requirements that prevent an install from even occurring. Not that I feel like I’m missing out. It is a shitshow of an OS.

Our point of sale software doesn’t work with it. So they blocked the update until it does.

My Win 10 laptop wouldn’t install Win 11, so I upgraded to Linux. Hoping there’s many more like me.

Not sure how exactly this survey was conducted, here at the small business I work at only about 2% of the desktops/laptops are Win 11 compatible. And being a small business the owner isn’t interested in spending the $$ on new systems until absolutely necessary.

But that’s on the small business side, maybe this article is only talking about fortune 500 companies? Their results seem a bit odd to me otherwise.

Yeah, I’ve got a few thousand PCs at work (not all mine) and we’re maybe 70% compatible. I’ve been doing a lot of reprioritizing upgrades to get those ones done before daddy IT security compliance starts looking critically at us.

Because Windows 11 is yet another painful transition for staff who are mostly IT illiterate folk, and it easier to leave things the way they are until necessary…

Funny that it also works like it was made by mostly IT illiterate folk.

“Almost all” then “many” then “the majority”. Does this hack know those things aren’t synonyms? 🙄

I’m not upgrading because I don’t trust Windows 11. Not that 10 has my confidence, of course, but 11 seems worse.

Windows 11 went full mask off on how bad Windows really is, why would anyone use it? No one wants adware, ransomware, or spyware on their pc, let alone have it baked in.

^ this is the answer I was about to give

  1. Win 11 sucks
  2. Win 10 is still supported for another year
db2 ,

Win10 sucks but Win11 manages to suck harder. And neither in the good way.

style99 ,

As someone who uses Win 11, I can confirm that it sucks.
