Table of contents:
Today is a sad day for many. It's time to say goodbye to one of the versions of Windows that has received the most praise from critics and users. Life happens for everyone and everything and now is the time to take out the scarf and say goodbye to Windows 7, one of the most popular versions of Microsoft's operating system
The American company ceases to support Windows 7 as of today, January 14. This version is no longer officially supported and any bugs and errors that appear will be discovered, turning Windows 7 into a system little sure.It is the end of life of Windows 7, the End Of Life (EOL)
A goodbye, already final
Windows 7 was conceived as an update to Windows Vista, and compared to this, which many consider the worst version of Windows (I liked it), it was a breath of fresh air by providing important improvements in the interface and introduce a series of new features that greatly facilitated the user's tasks. It was, in short, a lighter, faster and above all, stable system
Microsoft completed development of Windows 7 on July 22, 2009 and released it for sale on October 22 of the same year , along with Windows Server 2008. Since then it has been gaining market share, taking center stage in a large number of computers, a role that it is losing but little by little.
"On the Microsoft support page we have access to the different dates and terms in which they support the different versions of Windows and today it&39;s time to say goodbye to Windows 7. From now on, in the In the event of a vulnerability being found, Microsoft is under no obligation to patch it"
Next on the list will be Windows 8.1, which already has an expiration date set for January 10, 2023. Still There is time left, but that proximity is what makes it more interesting at this time, in the case of upgrading, to opt for Windows 10 when it comes to replacing Windows 7.
Also Windows 10 Mobile
And today, January 14, is also another important day for those who use Windows 10 Mobile. Starting today and after the one-month grace extension, Microsoft's mobile operating system also ends its useful life.
Given that the number of users is much smaller, the news has not had the same depth, but its importance cannot be denied. Starting today Windows 10 Mobile will not receive new updatesboth security and normal updates>"
The difference is that while with Windows 7 we can update the computer to Windows 10 without going through the checkout, in the case of Windows 10 Mobile we have no other choice for security, which buy an iOS or Android phone.
