So just another variation of the "you're using it wrong" excuse. Gotcha.

If you'd rather risk becoming a botnet node than to even consider using alternative software then you are absolutely using it wrong.

If your computer doesn't support win11, then switching to Linux before win10 ends is the only right choice. The other less right choices are:

Stay on win10, Upgrade to win11 and disconnect it from the network and the internet permanently.

The worst choice is do what OP did.
