When does your Microsoft Windows support expire ?

Did you know that all of the Microsoft operating systems have expiry dates ? If your Microsoft Windows support has been expired, you will not get security updates, bug fixes, error fixes, online assistance, and any other updates for your Windows product. If you carefully look at your recent Windows updates, most of them will be security updates. Since the internet has been introduced, also there are many spyware, malware, trojan, and virus. These things spread fast through the internet and other social media. For safe computing, Microsoft releases security updates for your OS (Operating System). If your Windows has expired, and no updates, it means you are in danger. Your computer become more vulnerable to virus, spyware, malware, and trojan. End of support means no more security updates, bug fixes, error fixes, online assistance, and any other updates for your Windows product.
