Summary

Microsoft is accelerating its phase-out of support for Windows 10 and officially unsupported versions of Microsoft Office apps on October 14, 2025. However, users with subscriptions to Microsoft 365 or those upgraded to Windows 11 will continue to receive updates until at least October 2028. Additionally, fixed-lifecycle Office versions (like Office 2021 and 2024) will offer extended support periods, ensuring continued security and updates for users on Windows 10.
