- Microsoft will support Microsoft 365 Office apps on Windows 10 with security updates until October 10, 2028, despite Windows 10's end of support in 2025.

- Microsoft offers a $30 yearly Extended Security Updates plan for Windows 10, covering security patches but excluding new features and full technical support.
- This arrangement encourages organizations and individuals to migrate to Windows 11 while maintaining security during the extended support period, but future issues may require upgrading to Windows 11.
