Understood.
You can continue to use Windows 8.1 as before.

It is not supported by Microsoft like Windows 10 or 11, but it is not critical.
Where did you receive this pop-up?

Customer Replay

came ina box on the computer screen

Microsoft will not force you to use another version of Windows. They just recommend you to do so.

Customer Replay

OK thank you ...thats all.....

But a lot of people still using Windows 7 or even Windows XP and don't have any problems with it:)
Is there anything else I can do for you today?

Customer Replay
