Microsoft is expected to end extended support for Windows 7, one of the most popular versions of the OS, on January 14,2020. This means that the majority of users only have one more year of support.
Windows 7 only has one year left to live, at least as far as official support goes. Microsoft is set to end free support for the operating system on January 14,2020, exactly one year from today. Business customers can extend the availability of security updates for up to three years, but this support has to be paid for on a per-device basis, with the price increasing every year.
Originally made available in October of 2009, Windows 7 went on to become one of the most popular versions of the company’s OS, and its successor, Windows 8, barely managed to make a dent in its market share.
