Windows 10's extended support ends in eight months

Windows 10’s extended support ends in eight months, but users are still rejecting Windows 11, at least in Germany.

Windows 10 support officially ended on October 14, 2025, unless you signed up for Extended Security Updates (ESU). With ESU, you can still get security updates and minor fixes or improvements, but the catch is that extended support ends on October 13, 2026. After October 13, 2026, you need to either ditch your PC or upgrade to Windows 11.
