With the increasing adoption of Windows 11 (now at 33% vs 62% for Windows 10), identifying users as "Windows 10" when they are actually on Windows 11 can cause confusion and potential false alarms. For example, a user may receive a security alert stating that "Someone logged into your account using Windows 10," when in fact they are using Windows 11. This could lead to unnecessary concern or security tickets being raised due to the discrepancy.

Proposal: To avoid such confusion and prevent spreading inaccurate information, I suggest modifying the user agent detection string from "Windows 10" to something more inclusive like "Windows 10/11." This adjustment would help better reflect the system the user is on and avoid misidentifications or misunderstandings.
