VBScript has been around for 27 years, and due to security vulnerabilities, VBScript will be deprecated in future releases of Windows.
It's best to choose a supported language that TestComplete supports, either JavaScript or Python. Plus it's worth checking to see if there are any limitations in the supported languages. You will have to manually convert your scripts, and it's not possible to use different languages within the same project.

Hey, you're going to hurt VBScipt's feelings. Python is no spring chicken. It's been around for 30+ years.
In any event, just because Windows is dropping VBScript support doesn't necessarily mean TestComplete has to follow suit, unless there are dependencies on Microsoft components. I'm not sure if that's the case.
Still, I wouldn't panic if I were you. If you start new projects you can select Python or Java as the scripting language. However, I anticipate you'll still be able to use your VBScript based projects for the foreseeable future.
