While all eyes are currently on Windows 11, most people running a modern version of Microsoft’s operating system are actually on Windows 10.

However, it’s not a secret that many would actually upgrade to Windows 11. But the updated system requirements of Microsoft’s new OS got them stuck with Windows 10, so they have no other option than to hope the software giant will continue to show some love for the old version.

The company has already promised to continue supporting Windows 10 until October 2025, and now it’s also confirming that a new feature update is just around the corner.

Windows 10 to receive updates for three more years

According to the official announcement, the rollout would start in October, and once again, it will take place in stages to devices across the world.

“For customers who are using a device that is not eligible for Windows 11, Windows 10 is a great place to be. Windows 10 will be serviced through Oct. 14, 2025 and we have announced that the next feature update to Windows 10, version 22H2, is coming next month, continuing to offer you both support and choice with Windows. As in the past, we will closely monitor the rollout of Windows 11 and continue to share timely information on the status of the rollout and known issues (open and resolved) across all Windows feature and monthly updates via the Windows release health dashboard and @WindowsUpdate,” Microsoft announced.

Needless to say, you shouldn’t expect any big changes in terms of new features, as the focus clearly remains on Windows 11.

If anything, the performance of Windows 10 should be a little bit more polished after the next feature rollout starts rolling out, but for a full changelog, we’ll just have to wait for the launch to begin at some point in October.
