Windows 10 ESU – Registrierungsbutton erscheint nicht trotz 22H2 (Rollout-Basis)
Hallo zusammen, ich möchte mein Windows 10 Pro-System für die Extended Security Updates (ESU) registrieren. Alle Voraussetzungen sind erfüllt (Version 22H2, Build 19045.6396, aktuelle Updates installiert, Microsoft-Konto aktiv). Trotzdem erscheint in Windows Update keine Schaltfläche „Jetzt registrieren“. Der Microsoft-Support hat mir heute bestätigt, dass der ESU-Rollout phasenweise fortgesetzt wird, auch nach dem 14. Oktober, nur Geräte unter 22H2 vom Supportende betroffen sind, und dass mein System automatisch berücksichtigt wird. Da ich mein Gerät gern rechtzeitig registrieren möchte, um Sicherheitsupdates nahtlos zu erhalten, meine Frage an das Entwicklerteam: Gibt es einen bekannten Zeitrahmen für den weiteren Rollout der ESU-Registrierung an 22H2-Geräte, oder spezifische Regionen- bzw. Kontoabhängigkeiten? Vielen Dank und viele Grüße Matthias
No access to ESU and Errors
It's been two weeks currently since Win 10 ended and currently, it's still impossible for me to get the ESU link to pop up. My PC is on 22H2, with every update installed, I'm living in France, have a Microsoft account linked to my computer and active with admin settings. I'm honestly unsure where is the problem and Microsoft Twitter was not too helping if not problematic (now I'm forced to have a pin or to log with my Microsoft password where before I had my session password that was fine). When I'm "forcing" the pop up to show up so I can register, I get hit with an error, saying "We cannot enroll you to extended security updates for now. Close this window and try again." As you can imagine, it never worked. So any idea on what to do? Please?End of Windows 10 Support: What Defender Customers Need to Know
As of today, October 14, 2025, Microsoft is officially ending support for Windows 10. This means that Windows 10 devices will no longer receive security or feature updates, nor technical support from Microsoft. While these devices will continue to operate, the lack of regular security updates increases vulnerability to cyber threats, including malware and viruses. Applications running on Windows 10 may also lose support as the platform stops receiving updates. Will Defender continue to protect Windows 10 devices? Defender supports a range of legacy systems, including Windows 10. (See here for a full list of supported operating systems.) Microsoft Defender will continue to provide detection and protection capabilities to the extent possible on Windows 10 and other legacy systems. Keep in mind that security solutions on legacy systems are inherently less secure and may not be able to receive all new features, so please review the next section for important actions you can take. For Windows 10 customers without Defender, Microsoft will continue to provide security intelligence updates for the built-in Microsoft Defender Antivirus protection through October 2028. Of course, Defender Antivirus alone isn't a comprehensive risk mitigation posture without Microsoft Defender detection and response deployed across your digital estate. What should customers do to protect their Windows 10 devices? Upgrade to Windows 11: Moving to Windows 11 is strongly recommended for PCs eligible to upgrade. Windows 11 delivers the latest security features, improved performance, and ongoing support at no additional cost. This is the best way to ensure your endpoints remain protected and compliant. Devices running Windows 10 will be more vulnerable, even with ongoing security intelligence updates (SIUs). Extended security update (ESU) program: If upgrading isn’t immediately possible, Microsoft offers an ESU program for Windows 10. The ESU program provides critical and important security updates but does not include new Windows features or technical support. Enterprise customers can purchase ESU for up to three years or receive it at no additional cost with a Windows 365 subscription. Cloud and virtual environments: Windows 10 devices accessing Windows 11 Cloud PCs via Windows 365 or Virtual Machines are entitled to ESU at no extra cost, with automatic updates. Consumer customers have options to enroll for one year of ESU, including free enrollment methods in certain regions.

No ESU registration link
Hello, To my knowledge I fulfill all requirements for a ESU free extension as a Windows 10 user from the European Economic Area (EEA) but I've yet to see any links in Windows Update. Since Windows 10 support is supposed to end tomorrow, this is very concerning. Any solutions ? Thank you for your attention.ESU for W10 22H2 Not showing up??
