If you were hoping Microsoft might reconsider its decision to pull the plug on Windows 10, then you're all out of luck. The tech giant ended support for the operating system on October 14, 2025, leaving approximately 400 million Windows PCs without support.
While it's apparent that Microsoft would prefer these users to upgrade to Windows 11, it seems highly unlikely, especially for users with relatively new devices that have essentially been rendered obsolete following Windows 10's death. Some users have even branded Microsoft's decision to end support for the OS as programmed obsolescence.
