From today Microsoft ends support for Windows 10

Millions of personal computer users around the world today are facing an important announcement from Microsoft: as of October 14, support for the Windows 10 operating system officially ends. This key event means that PC owners need to take immediate action to ensure the security of their devices by upgrading to the more modern Windows 11.

As reported by BAKU.WS with reference to the company's official statement, starting Tuesday, Windows 10 users will stop receiving critical updates. This includes:

• Software updates that improve system functionality and performance.

• Security updates which are the main protection against new viruses, malware, and cyber threats.

• Technical support from Microsoft for any issues related to the operating system.

Although Windows 10 itself will not cease to function, the absence of further updates will make computers with this OS version significantly more vulnerable to potential cyberattacks. Each day without current security patches increases the risk of infection by viruses and malware, which can lead to data loss, privacy breaches, and system failures.
