Windows 10 and Windows 11 share a common codebase, meaning vulnerabilities patched in one can often be exploited in the other.

Microsoft 's requirements for Windows 11 include a 1GHz or faster CPU with at least two cores, 4 GB of RAM , 64 GB of storage, Secure Boot capability, and TPM 2.0 compatibility.

Charity shops using Windows 10 for electronic point-of-sale systems will face compliance issues with regulations like GDPR once support ends.
