End of Free Support for Windows 10

October 14, 2025

As of today, October 14th, Microsoft stops providing free support for Windows 10. Many users still rely on this operating system, but starting in 2025, there will be no security updates available. This increases the risk of viruses and malware. Users are encouraged to consider upgrading to Windows 11, which offers improved security. If they can't upgrade, they have the option to enroll in an extended security update for an additional year.
