I’m struggling to understand why they would want to do this. Wouldn’t it benefit them to have Windows compatible with as many computers as possible? I feel like there’s something else going on here. Could it be a security thing? Or are they getting kickbacks from hardware vendors?
Windows 10 already chugs really hard on 4GB of RAM and a mechanical hard drive in my experience, so probably can't go any lower on the minimum specs if they're bloating the OS even more. Still shit change and reasoning, Microsoft should focus on debloating their crap, there's no need for it to be like this.
it's insane how badly optimized windows is lol, i have a linux box running on a years-old quad core with a 5400rpm drive and it only takes like 15 seconds to boot
Yeah these minimum specs are always bs anyways. Has anyone tried running Windows 10 on the minimum specs of 2GB ram, 1GHz dual core processor and a mechanical hard drive or super slow SD card/electronic storage, at 800x600 resolution? Must be a living nightmare.

It's practcally unusable on a 7.2K RPM disk. I had to put it on a solid state.
