Windows 10 users with extended support can now install their first major security update, rolling out with November’s Patch Tuesday.
The first major update is here for Windows 10 PCs with ESU.
The update fixes a couple of bugs that affected ESU registrations.
The update also patches 66 security flaws for Windows 11 and 10 with ESU.
Windows 10 users who signed up for Microsoft’s Extended Security Updates can now grab their first major update under the program. With this month’s Patch Tuesday, Microsoft has kicked off the November update dubbed KB5068781 for qualifying Windows 10 devices.
With Windows 10 no longer officially supported by Microsoft, the ESU program scores you at least another year of security updates. Still running Windows 10 and haven’t registered for the program? Individual consumers can join using a few different methods.
If you don’t mind shelling out a few dollars, the program costs a flat fee of $30. Otherwise, you can redeem 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points by running searches using Microsoft Bing. But the cheapest option is to use the built-in Windows Backup tool to back up and sync your settings to the cloud.
