Windows 10 Support Ended

Support for Windows 10 officially ended on October 14, 2025, meaning Microsoft no longer provides technical support, security updates, or software updates for the operating system. After this date, devices running Windows 10 will continue to function, but will be at a greater risk of security vulnerabilities, such as viruses and malware, because they will not receive new security patches. 

What this means for users: 

You can still use a Windows 10 PC, but it is recommended to upgrade to a supported operating system like Windows 11 to stay protected. 

• Extended Security Updates (ESU): 

  Microsoft offers an Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for businesses and consumers who cannot upgrade immediately. This program provides security updates for a limited time, but it is a paid subscription and does not include new features or technical support. 
• Recommendation: 

  The most secure and recommended path is to upgrade to a newer version of Windows, such as Windows 11, if your device's hardware meets the requirements.
