Windows 11’s hardware rules mean you can’t treat compatibility as a single checkbox — it’s a chain of interlocking requirements (TPM 2.0, UEFI/Secure Boot, a supported CPU, enough RAM and storage) that together determine whether a Dell laptop can be upgraded safely and with vendor support. The...

StatCounter’s August 2025 snapshot produced a deceptively simple headline — Windows 11 slipped below 50% of desktop Windows installations while Windows 10 regained ground — but the data behind that headline, and what it means for users and IT teams as Windows 10 support ends in October, require...
