In an interesting turn of events, perhaps in an effort to increase the pressure on Windows 10 users to upgrade, Microsoft has issued a vague suggestion that the free upgrade to Windows 11 might expire, possibly at the same time support runs out for the older OS.

Microsoft posted on the Tech Community blog, once again urging Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11. The company has been nudging users in this direction for a while now, employing increasingly desperate tactics as statistics continue to show that Windows 11 adoption has plateaued worldwide.

Microsoft says an earlier blog post contained inaccurate information about changes to the Windows 11 upgrade path.

A blog post claiming that the free upgrade to Windows 11 was for a "limited time only" appears to have been a mistake.
