Request Summary: Microsoft 11

Request Category: Private Individuals


Question Number 1: In 2025, Microsoft is set to end security support for the Windows 10 operating system. Replacement OS Windows 11 has much higher hardware requirements, which will leave many computers unable to run it safely. So, I would like to request information on the number of desktop and laptop organisations currently in use at your organisation that meet these requirements. I am specifically interested in finding out how many computers do not have processors approved for the new OS. I have attached a list of approved processors. Please could you provide the following information: a) How many computers (desktop or laptop) are currently owned by and in use at your organisation? b) How many of these do not have a Windows 11-approved processor (as determined by the attached list)?

Answer To Question 1: a) 3393 computers are owned and used by the Trust b) 229 do not have a compatible Windows 11 processor
