Microsoft now notifying Windows 7 Users about end of support

Microsoft has started rolling out an update to Windows 7 that will notify existing users about the end of the support. The software maker is stopping support of Windows 7 on January 14th, 2020, and it’s now starting to warn about this cutoff date.

Microsoft is using a notification to warn Windows 7 users, similar to the prompts the company used to get people to upgrade to Windows 7.

Microsoft’s end of support date means that Windows 7 users will no longer receive security updates, and the company wants consumers to upgrade to Windows 10 PCs instead. While the notification doesn’t mention Windows 10, Microsoft links to a new Windows 7 site that encourages consumers to upgrade their PCs.

With the launch of Windows 10, Microsoft also changed its policy from what it calls Fixed Lifecycle Policy to a Modern Lifecycle Policy, which covers products and services that are supported continuously.

It is therefore recommended by Microsoft to update your windows to the latest version before the stated date.

  1. I’m a MacBook and windows user, music producer. My apple laptop runs MacOS High Sierra and my HP came with windows 10 pre installed but I downgraded to windows 7 Ultimate.

    Windows 7 is the best windows OS. Compatible with almost all the softwares and hardwares for my work.
