Microsoft Windows 11 adoption lags in enterprises, many PCs still run Windows 10

Enterprise migration to Microsoft Windows 11 is progressing more slowly than expected. HP estimates that roughly 30% of newly sold computers are still equipped with Windows 10, a share that is concentrated in large organisations where updates must pass extensive compatibility, security and policy checks. Hardware requirements such as TPM 2.0, Secure Boot and supported processors have left a substantial number of older machines unable to upgrade without costly replacement, prompting Microsoft to extend Windows 10 support.

Separately, a guide details how to obtain and install the Windows 11 ARM‑64 edition. Users must first confirm an ARM‑based processor (e.g., Qualcomm Snapdragon, Microsoft Surface ARM devices or Apple‑silicon Macs running in a virtual machine), then download the official ISO from Microsoft and create a bootable USB or use the image for a VM. The ARM version can run native ARM64 applications with better battery life and also emulate x86/x64 software.

Both pieces underscore the varied challenges organisations face when moving from the long‑standing Windows 10 platform to the newer Windows 11 ecosystem.
