Microsoft has concluded support for Windows 10, with over 44% of PC users still operating on the OS.

Microsoft has introduced the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program, offering security patches until October 13, 2026, at a cost of £22 for individual users and starting at £45 for businesses, with prices doubling in subsequent years. Users can also access ESU benefits through Microsoft Rewards Points or by performing a Windows Backup via OneDrive, which has a 5GB free limit.

Over Half A Million Windows Users Are Switching To Linux – Here’s Why

Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 in October 2025, offering free Extended Security Updates until October 13, 2026, and paid options until 2028.

Valve's Steam Deck has improved gaming on Linux, with major titles now supporting Linux compatibility, and the development of Proton has enhanced the ability to run Windows games on Linux.

Repurposing an ‘Obsolete’ Windows 10 Laptop into a Thin Client, Part 2 — Virtualization Review

The article discusses the potential of extending the lifespan of aging Windows 10 hardware by repurposing it with 10ZiG's RepurpOS, particularly on a Dell Latitude E7440. It evaluates how well RepurpOS handles Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) workloads, including tests with Microsoft Office applications, high-resolution video streaming, and unified communications via Zoom. The performance during these tests was comparable to that of a Windows 11 system. RepurpOS supports dual-monitor setups and utilizes Multimedia Redirection (MMR) to optimize unified communications processing. It also allows access to SaaS applications through a local web browser, with Google Chrome functioning smoothly for tasks like streaming and using MS Office 365. Additionally, 10ZiG introduced the 10ZiG Secure Browser to enhance web security for businesses. The dual monitor support was confirmed, allowing for independent and mirrored display modes.
