What Do You Think About Windows 10 Extended Security Updates Program?

[Alex George]

We know that Microsoft announced the ESU (Extended Security Update) program for the Windows 10 operating system. According to them, ESU will provide security updates to existing Windows 10 devices for a fee. My question is, how many of you will choose Windows 10 ESU over migrating to Windows 11?

Code: Select all

I read about this ESU program and do not need it. I upgraded my laptop and PC to Windows 11. However, for those who cannot migrate to Windows 11, the ESU program is helpful. After all, $30 per year is not a big problem.

Hello Xavior, I won't be thrilled with the $30 bill. It is the fee for the first year. Who knows, Microsoft may charge you $100 for the second year.

It's stealing. They know, many devices cannot upgrade to Windows 11.

Hello Reshmi R Menon, I see it from a different view. Microsoft will lose all those devices. Eventually, Linux will find a way to those devices.
