Microsoft Confirms Windows 10 Feature Updates
Ending After 22H2
Microsoft has stated that the release of Windows 10 22H2 marks the end of feature updates for its operating system.
Over the following months, Windows 10 will still receive regular bug fixes and security patches, which applies for
mainstream users up to EOS (End of Support) on October 14, 2025. Windows 10 was launched in mid-2015, so it
will have enjoyed a 10-year reign.
In its Windows roadmap update Microsoft says its clarification regarding the Windows 10 product roadmap “helps
consumers and organizations with planning their Windows release activities.” More pointedly, the firm used this
community announcement to “highly encourage you to transition to Windows 11 now.” Some may see this an-
nouncement as a cynical push by Microsoft to try and accelerate the adoption of Windows 11.
The new OS didn’t get off to the best start when it appeared in October 2021 issues plaguing the OS and have contin-
ued to do so in 2023. If you are still a little confused about what is happening with which version of Windows and
when, Microsoft has put together a Windows release health page, which should help. Have a look at the following
web page.
