- Consumer Reports Exhort Microsoft to return to the plans to eliminate Windows 10 support
- Windows 10 software updates and security will end on October 14
- Users can obtain an extension of one year security update for $ 30, which consumer reports condemn
In case you did not already know, Microsoft ends Windows 10 support in October without more software or security updates, which has an effective impact on millions of users who have incompatible systems with Windows 11 – and there was a new call for Microsoft to turn around.
As reported by the penis, the US Body Consumer Non -profit reports urged Microsoft to reverse its decision to end Windows 10 care and to extend the current deadline of October 14 for free security updates, saying that the end of Windows 10 will finish “millions of consumers” in a letter to the CEO of Microsoft.
Calls for the complete letter of consumer reports will be supported by many, because there are still many PC users with equipment incompatible with Windows 11. Data also suggests that 46.2% of users worldwide still use Windows 10.
Given the number of problems introduced Windows 11 24H2, it is not surprising either to see that PC users are hesitant to make a switch. “If it is not broken, do not repair it”, this is what I imagine that many Windows 10 users feel. Many will think that they have no choice but to upgrade, unless they decide to pay $ 30 for an extension of one year of security updates beyond October 14 – for which the consumer reports labels for Microsoft’s “hypocrites”.
Consumer Reports presents valid arguments for Microsoft to reconsider its decision, especially When it appears that Microsoft is in a battle to dissuade users from going to Linux, or more specifically Steamos de Valve.
Analysis: Microsoft leaves Windows 10 users other than choosing Tiny11 or Linux
If Microsoft sticks to the decision to end Windows 10 support, it could turn considerably. There is still a plethora of users who are perfectly satisfied with Windows 10, and now that this is about to change, this will probably leave a lot in search of alternatives.
Unofficial options like Tiny11 exist, which allow a stripped version of Windows 11 to operate on equipment that does not meet the official requirements of the Windows 11 system. However, among the best alternative operating systems available are Linux, and Valve Steamos in particular could serve as an option for Windows 10 to Sauter.
It should also be noted that Microsoft introduces a new `full screen experience ‘via its Xbox PC application, which, in my eyes, is a direct competition to what Valve has provided to Steamos users – and which is apparently defined for Windows 11 systems, another reason why some Windows 10 users could be influenced to move away from 14 October.
The deadline is closer, so Microsoft must determine whether the abandonment of the 2015 operating system is worth the potential backlash.
