Microsoft announced that support for Windows 11 SE will end in October 2026. Windows 11 SE is designed for education, running on web-first devices with essential education apps and Microsoft Office 365 preinstalled. After version 24H2, no feature updates will be released, and support will cease, including software updates, technical assistance, and security fixes. While devices will continue to function, users are advised to transition to another edition of Windows 11 for ongoing support and security. Windows 11 SE was developed to compete with Chromebooks in the educational market but faced challenges due to its diminished user experience.
