Has Windows 7 Support Been Extended?

After January 14, 2020, if your PC is running Windows 7, and you haven’t purchased Extended Security Updates, the computer will no longer receive security updates. There won’t be an ESU offering or an extension of support for Office 2010.

Is Windows 7 still supported in 2021?

You can use Windows 7 in 2021, but I recommend upgrading your system to Windows 10 if you have better hardware resources. Microsoft Support for Windows 7 ended on January 14, 2020. If you are still using Windows 7, your PC may become more vulnerable to security risks.

How do I know if my Windows 7 is extended support?

Once you have activated the ESU product key, you can verify the status at any time by following these steps:

1. Open an elevated Command Prompt.
2. Type slmgr /dlv and select Enter.
3. Verify Licensed Status shows as Licensed for the corresponding ESU program, as shown below: {width=”535″ height=”295″}
