Microsoft has issued a stark warning to millions of Windows 10 users with some set to be left without vital updates from next month.

Support for Windows 10 will end in October 2025, leaving millions across the world with three simple options.

Microsoft has just confirmed that all devices running Windows 10 version 21H2 will get no further updates after that date in the summer. This means users must switch to a more recent version of Windows 10 or make the jump to Windows 11 as soon as possible, reports the Express. What makes this all the more concerning is the sheer number of people still using this operating system. Recent data from StatCounter shows that Windows 10 holds a massive 67 percent of the market, even with its end of life looming.
