Read about it here:

https://www.theregister.com/2023/10/10/microsoft_says_vbscript_will_be/
or
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1387782/will-vbscript-be-deprecated-on-windows-server

Note that for now it affects only client not server platforms.  Doesn't appear to include VB for Applications (VBA)
They want everyone to migrate to PowerShell scripts.

Hi John,

They want everyone to migrate to PowerShell scripts.

Exactly. There are a lot of complaints mentioning the slowness of Powershell. Me too, I feel the same thing.
