Why? Nothing requires Windows 11. It doesn't even have a new directx which is why most had to upgrade from 7. Browsers and malware software will work for years. Hell malwarbytes still updates for Window 7.
You really don’t understand security updates.
I do and if the computer is for work yes update to 11. But for gaming only why would anyone care if it doesn't break your games? I do nothing but game on a PC and have no need to update until it is required for gaming. Also it is not like on that date all security updates to that point vanish. Firefox and Chrome will still update for security. Malwarebytes will still also update for security.
