'RIP Windows 10': Microsoft users mourn system as it's shut down
"Microsoft has ended support for Windows 10 today, finally shutting down the popular operating system after 10 years. That means the roughly 21 million devices in the UK still running the operating system will no longer receive vital security updates. As millions of users say goodbye to Windows 10, some die-hard fans have taken to social media to mourn the loss of the beloved software."
"Windows 10 was released in 2015 to replace Windows 8.1 and has been receiving regular updates with bug fixes and security patches since then. However, Microsoft is now pushing all remaining Windows 10 users to update their devices to the newer Windows 11 system. Although many tech fans have a 'love-hate' relationship with the operating system, many have been sad to see it go."
Windows 10 support has ended, which stops regular security and software updates for devices still running the operating system. Roughly 21 million devices in the UK are affected and will no longer receive vital patches that fix vulnerabilities exploited by cybercriminals. Microsoft is urging remaining Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11, offering a choice between updating or accepting increased cybersecurity risk. Many users expressed nostalgia and sadness on social platforms, while some voiced concerns about Windows 11 and privacy. Windows 10 was released in 2015 and received a decade of updates.
