Will Bitdefender Protect my Windows 10 Desktop if I don't upgrade to Windows 11?

There seems to be a lot of discussion about people trying to switch to Windows 11, but I have a great desktop that Microsoft tells me won't upgrade to windows 11. I think it shouldn't be forced upon people because my PC has a very good value as it is my photo editing PC with all I need. Microsoft says their won't be protection unless I pay them and that limited to maybe 12 months.

So will Bitefender continue to protect my PC on Windows 1o or will I have to get another PC?

    Hi @Sweetie

    Yes, Bitdefender will still protect your Windows 10 PC, even after Microsoft stops support for it. Bitdefender's protection will still do it's job in protecting your Windows 10 device, so no worries in that regard. I have 2 Windows PC's that cannot upgrade due to the hardware, compatibly constraints of Windows 11, but I'm not to worried about what I may be missing with an upgrade of my 2 devices. I would be more, very concerned if I was using Windows Security as my form of security protection, as that will no longer receive its updates. Just use some common sense along with Bitdefender, and we'll all be fine :)

    Kind regards.

    Kindly have a look at the link stated below

    Bitdefender still supports Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 installed, even though Microsoft has ended production and support for the operating system. This suggests that Bitdefender will continue to support Windows 10. Before Bitdefender discontinues support for Windows 10, it will first stop supporting Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 8.1. Windows 10 is still fully functional and supported by Microsoft, and it has not yet reached its end of life, unlike the versions prior to Windows 10.
