15. I agree with waiting...if you can

The thing about new versions of Windows is that they almost always seem to drift away from the initial requirements.

Unless you have a compelling reason to upgrade, it's totally fine to stay with Windows 10 in the short term.

(I recommend installing all updates you're offered[*])

If you're not sure, check the preferred hardware requirements and see if your existing hardware meets those requirements. If not, wait until you upgrade hardware...or until what you're using no longer receives security updates.

(And, if it seems relevant: I switch between Windows, macOS, and Linux on a regular basis.)


[*] - Unless they're in things you don't use...in which case, you should remove the things you don't use.[**]
[**] - If you can. If you can't remove it, then sigh install the updates.
