JAKARTA - Microsoft will stop selling downloads of Windows 10 Home and Pro versions to subscribers next week. This is bad news for those looking to create a new Windows 10 PC and the product lock for that version won't be available starting February this year.
"January 31, 2023 will be the last day this Windows 10 download is offered for sale. Windows 10 will remain supported by security updates that help protect your PC from viruses, spyware, and other malware until October 14, 2025," Microsoft said in an official statement.
Downloads include license keys for Windows 10, where they are required to enable and use downloads. But it's not clear how the company will treat similar downloads and available license keys from retailers like Amazon.
Microsoft recommends Windows 11 instead. The company announced in June 2021 that it will stop supporting Windows 10 in 2025, a decade after the operating system launched in 2015.
Then, after a gradual launch starting in 2021, Microsoft is fully implementing Windows 11 to all users who have compatible computers in May 2022.
Microsoft says Windows 10 users with compatible computers can upgrade to the latest operating system for free.
The latest sales news may be a bit disappointing for many as there are still two years before the company stops supporting the old version, but sales of the Windows 10 version will end in a few days.
In addition, Microsoft has just announced a plan to lay off because the tech giant is preparing to experience slower revenue growth. The layoffs took approximately 10,000 employees globally. This was quoted from CNET, Tuesday, January 24.
