There's a reason Microsoft is aggressively deprecating "older" CPU's that work perfectly fine. Heck, I have one laptop with Windows 11 that worked great, but won't update from 22h2 to 24h2 because CPU support was dropped between versions, leaving me with only the glib suggestion from the Windows Update UI to "Buy a new device".

Ironically, installing Windows 10 and activating ESU would lead to longer hardware life.

Of course, I didn't. Instead, I installed Linux on that laptop too. My partner had no issues switching.
