Windows 10 Support Officially Ends Next Week

Microsoft is preparing to officially end support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025 — just a week from now. The company is reminding users that once support ends, Windows 10 PCs will no longer receive updates, including crucial security patches and system improvements.

While devices running Windows 10 will continue to function after the deadline, users will be more exposed to potential vulnerabilities over time. For those who wish to continue using Windows 10, Microsoft is offering the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program, which provides security patches for one additional year.

Alternatively, users are encouraged to upgrade to Windows 11, which brings a refreshed design, enhanced performance, and a host of modern productivity and security features.
