[QUOTE="SpyNetGirl, post: 1029239, member: 98858"] You can run the script on your Windows 10 and more than half of the security measures will work, the other half will either not enable since they aren't simply available or they show an error in PowerShell console because the cmdlet isn't available which you should be able to safely ignore. How old is your hardware anyway? until recently I had super old hardware too. from first half of 2017, Intel 7700k which is 7th gen. Intel is releasing 14th gen most likely this year, so realistically, every 6-7 years a new CPU is reasonable...even a 13th gen i5 is so much more powerful than 7th gen i7 and it's cheaper. even if you have 7th gen Intel CPU, you can join Windows insider and without any tricks, use the insider builds. but anything older is honestly just too old and needs upgrade. any piece of technology that old will struggle with today's requirements. Lots of security features are just available in new CPUs and hardware, they weren't available few years ago, Intel and AMD CPUs are way different now compared to how they were 6 years ago, many hardware security is built into them and Windows uses them too. attackers and threat actors stepped up their game.
