It's crazy when you work in IT and there are so many users that for whatever reason they're so scared about moving to Windows 11 with the end of Windows 10 support coming up. I'm trying to make sure everybody is on Windows 11, but I'm just shocked at the amount of users that refuse or try to procrastinate moving over it. Like from your perspective, the only thing that's gonna be different to you is how it looks and a few of the buttons named slightly different, named slightly different places.
