January 14, 2020

How long will Windows 7 be supported?

Microsoft doesn’t plan to stop fixing security problems in Windows 7 until extended support ends. That’s January 14, 2020–five years and a day from the end of mainstream support. If that doesn’t put you at ease, consider this: XP’s mainstream support ended in April, 2009.

Will Windows 7 support be extended?

Some enterprises may still need Windows 7 extended support when the operating system reaches its end of support lifecycle date in January 2020. Microsoft is offering Extended Security Updates (ESUs) — but it will cost you. Of course, this Windows 7 extended support comes with a price tag.
