Microsoft aims to discontinue support for Windows 10 by October 2025. The next generation of the OS, anticipated to bring advanced artificial intelligence technology to PCs, could potentially boost the sluggish PC market.

(Reuters) - Microsoft Corp's plan to end support for Windows 10 operating system could result in about 240 million personal computers (PCs) being disposed, potentially adding to landfill waste, Canalys Research said.

The electronic waste from these PCs could weigh an estimated 480 million kilograms, equivalent to 320,000 cars.
Microsoft announced a plan to provide security updates for Windows 10 devices until October 2028 for an undisclosed annual price.

I still own a computer that runs Windows 7 every day with no significnt problems, so I don't care what Microsoft does as long as I can keep using it.

that's iteresting! I use Windows X too I like its stability and compatibility with a wide range of software. Plus recently I found software on kms-tool.com that is designed for free activation of Microsoft products without the need to purchase official licenses. It helps to access all the features and updates offered by Microsoft, allowing me to experience the benefits of genuine software.
