I think something to remember is that a lot of people forget is that you can run an unsupported version of windows as long as the devs of your required software support it.

And sure there is the whole security scare, but I'd say while there are risks, as a Linux user you know a lot more about avoiding dodgy links and whatnot then most people so you're at a much lower risk.

So if you run a VM and use something like atlasOS to get a nicer windows 10 experience you can use that for years to come.
