Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025. The current version, 22H2, will be the final version of Windows 10, and all editions will remain in support with monthly security update releases through that date. Existing LTSC releases will continue to receive updates beyond that date based on their specific lifecycles.

Linux Mint FTW! Changed partly because of this and partly because of all the ads, bloatware, spyware etc etc
and we still can't get vmware to run properly on our company laptops. current theory is p/e core scheduling shenanigans. it's only been two years, what can you expect from the global leaders in virtualization and os.
i swear, before i upgrade I'll move my team to Linux. I've been mainlining debian for six years without issues, INCLUDING RUNNING VMWARE.
Dude fuck VMWare honestly
I'd bet any money they will go under in a few years, nobody is deploying a new vmware system after the shit Broadcom pulled
Who knows, by then Broadcom may drive VMware into the ground too, making the whole thing moot!
The period after MS stopped messing with it and before software stopped supporting it was the nicest time to use Windows 7, I expect it to be the same for Windows 10.
I've heard you can pay to continue updates on Win10 for three years I believe it was.
Jokes on them, over the last year or so I've installed Nobara, Mint & Xubuntu on every PC in my house.
So done with Windows.
Looking forward to the sudden, definitely inexplicable, price increase of specific hardware at about the nine month mark.
Unless you're on Enterprise/Education - 2027
