I don't why you're so surprised by this. It was announced over two years ago that Windows 10 support would end one day. But like clockwork, everyone always freaks out when that day comes even though they were warned

my computer got another year of support for free... supposedly for backing up with onedrive but i never did that?

In general though, Windows generally sees an incredibly long amount of support compared to most other operating systems and it baffles me why Windows users can't see the day coming eventually.

They've had years to plan for this, yet many of them simply have not.

all my pc's came with free windows upgrade for life lol got OLD pcs and laptops that somehow upgraded to the new windows without breaking them, my old pcs are for media viewing got the dvd drive still

nd yea they will just keep movin the bar, it will be eye scans and fingerprints to log in one day

LTSC would be nice. But how does one go about getting a key for it?

Do you make up a company name that you supposedly work for?

The end date for W10 was known about for years. It's not some big surprise, and I doubt you're going to pooch many people for linux with your desperate fishing.

No one needs a guide for linux. They'll just (god not forbid) upgrade to W11.

I received a link from MS this morning for a free extension until October 2026.
If the €30 is per year, or if it were, why shouldn't I keep Windows 10 Pro for life?
There's no alternative for me, so everything's fine.

I am still using a lower level of windows.

Just so everyone knows, Windows 10 support ending doesn't mean your computer explodes or all the viruses and malware in the universe find you.

I mean, there's only 1 year of support with the ESU so it wouldn't be per year.
