⏰ There's good news for Windows 10 holdouts: Microsoft quietly extended its Extended Security Updates program by another year. If you're staying on Windows 10, here's what changed, why Microsoft may have done it, and exactly what you need to do next (spoiler: probably nothing).
⏰ ESU Extension
If you signed up for Windows 10’s Extended Security Updates, you get even more time. Microsoft quietly moved the end date to October 2027. That’s an extra year of security updates. Already enrolled? You’re set. Not enrolled yet? You can still sign up.
