Windows 10 will be in the same boat again in about a year and a half when Microsoft drops support.
Do you really want to have this fight a second time trying to get him to upgrade to Windows 11?

trying to get him to upgrade to Windows 11?

If it’s currently running Win7, it likely doesn’t have TPM 2.0, and in extreme circumstances may not even have the SSE 4.2 that 23H2 requires (Win11 will then fail to boot).

And while a RUFUS-modded installer can remove the TPM 2.0 requirement, the SSE 4.2 requirement is kinda baked into the pie; there is no avoiding that.

Win11 is already available... Just go to that.
