    if that’s the case why do I still have to support XP as some shop floor measurement device still uses software from that, and window 7 for the database of greases then the likilhood is the windows 10 to windows 11 project is taking 6months planning of impact assessments. (pretty sure if we had let them the tool planning dept would still be running their windows 3.1 lotus suite

      Holy run-on sentence. Also it sounds like it’s the measuring device that doesn’t support newer the newer OS, not the other way around. Also migrating a database is possible, it just takes a ton of work.

      I’ve seen a few maintenance contracts which not only require maintenance for the OS, but also for a very specific build of the OS too. Are you, by any chance, bound by any such contract?
