READING NOW Windows 8.1 support is ending: Final update is tomorrow!
Microsoft will release the last update for Windows 8.1 tomorrow, and the operating system will not even receive security updates from this date.

It won’t get security patches either.

Windows 8.1 will of course continue to run on computers on which it is installed, but will not receive security patches. This means that any vulnerabilities discovered in the operating system will be left unfixed, and malicious people can take advantage of this vulnerability to cause harm. Microsoft says Windows 8.1 users should upgrade to a new version as soon as possible. The company’s recommendation is for Windows 11, but Windows 10 can also be preferred.

Not included in the ESU program

Unlike Windows 7, Windows 8.1 was not included in the ESU (Product Lifecycle) program. Therefore, it will not receive security patches released by Microsoft after support ends. Starting January 10, 2023, Windows 8.1 will be vulnerable to both security risks and compatibility issues.
