Tech Tuesday-Currently there are many update issues with both Windows 10 and 11. I recommend rebooting often!
This week last week, Windows 10 support……maybe. Looks like Microsoft has given you a choice to pay for Windows 10 security updates fo another year, plus additional ways to stay on Windows 10. There is lots of confusing information going around about this. Most are not clarified yet.
“As TechRadar warns, “Windows 10’s final patch fixes a bewildering number of security flaws – and shows why you need extended updates.” It’s a timely warning, and if you didn’t like the account-driven options to extend security updates for free, you can now buy another year of support in the Microsoft Store.
The Register sums this up pretty neatly: “All this means that, within the same week, Microsoft’s installer broke, its new OS borked local development, and Redmond’s multimillion-dollar upgrade push instead highlighted how fragile its ecosystem still is.”
We’re barely a week into the long-awaited end of Windows 10, and there are plenty of moving parts for Microsoft to grapple as hundreds of millions of Windows users are either newly at risk (Windows 10) or awaiting an emergency update (Windows 11).”
