Even the best things come to an end: there are only two years left Windows 10 before he bows out.

Just yesterday, we informed you that the latest Windows 10 update refused to install on certain PCs. Launched for the very first time in July 2015, Microsoft’s OS is slowly (but dangerously) approaching its final extinction.

Yes, after a decade of good and loyal service, Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates, as the Redmond firm had already announced.

At present, Windows 10 still largely dominates global market share, with more than 70% of customers still using the operating system. Far behind, with only 24.89% of users, despite the numerous updates deployed by Microsoft, Windows 11 is still struggling to convince the public.

It’s undeniable: Windows 10 is still the most popular Microsoft OS among users today (including Steam players). However, in less than two years, they will have to start migrating to a new version of the operating system, particularly if they wish to continue to benefit from a reliable and secure space.

Indeed, from October 14, 2025, those who use Windows 10 will no longer be able to install security-related updates. If the latter will nevertheless remain usable, its use could prove to be somewhat risky, as it will be fully exposed to vulnerabilities (viruses, spyware, malware, etc.). Finally, we remind you that it is no longer possible to purchase Windows 10 keys on the Microsoft Store since January 31.
