I returned a couple of systems back to Win 10 Pro and signed up for the free year of extended updates.
All fine and well, however when I repeatedly check for Windows updates, I keep getting important security updates needed yet no updates will show as being available for download. Is Microsoft playing the scare game that scammers so dearly love? What's going on?

BTW I forgot how Windows 11 greatly complicated setting up a small home or small business LAN network. Life was so simple then.
 
Anybody? Is Microsoft trying to fool me into ditching Windows 10 even though they told me they were extended my coverage? The only reason I am holding on to Win 10 is a driver from a major manufacturer is acting funky in Win 11.
