Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

I look forward to companies dumping a bunch of cheap and powerful mini-PCs on the market. I want to play around with a home server.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't the end of w10 support only affecting Windows home users, at least for now? E.g enterprise and other licences will still get support?

Yeah. I switched to an IoT version of Windows 10 that's going to get security updates until 2032. (I have a Windows machine I still use for a certain piece of proprietary software.)
