Those of Redmond have announced that the original version of Windows 10 will stop receiving support from next May 9. According to a company statement, Windows 10 Version 1507 will no longer receive any security updates or other improvements, something that will affect all editions of this version: Pro, Enterprise, Home and Education.

Microsoft revealed that the only way to continue enjoying updates and new features for Windows 10 is to update to a newer version of the operating system, such as version 1511 (November Update), version 1607 (Anniversary Update) or version 1703. (Creators Update), which is the latest version of the platform.

Of course, you always have the possibility of not updating to the latest version of Windows 10 and still using the operating system as is, but you could run into many problems.

Additionally, you will also miss the new functions and other improvements that Microsoft is adding to the operating system over time.

Although updating the operating system may seem like a complicated task, our recommendation is that you always have the latest versions available from Microsoft, since in this way your PC will also benefit from the latest improvements in security and performance.
