US EditionWindows 10 PC Can't Be Upgraded? You Have 5 Options - and Must Act Now
Windows 10 users must choose to upgrade, buy new PCs, pay for security updates, or switch OS as support ends, with 43% market share still active in July 2025.
- Yesterday, Microsoft ended support for Windows 10, saying users will no longer get updates or technical assistance from October 14, 2025.
- Microsoft's decade-long support policy means Windows 10, released in 2015, reached its 10-year support limit in 2025, and Microsoft describes the Extended Security Update program as a 'last resort' while urging migration to Windows 11.
- Millions of processors lack TPM 2.0, so Windows 11 system requirements may prevent upgrades; users can buy a new PC, pay for ESU, or switch to Linux, Microsoft says.
- A three-year ESU subscription costs $61 + $122 + $244, totaling $427, and consumers can extend security updates for one additional year until October 2026 with some free options.
- Windows 365 subscriptions provide an ESU path for up to three years, but Microsoft recommends users back up data as unsupported software faces rising malware and security exploits risks.
