Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025. The current version, 22H2, will be the final version of Windows 10, and all editions will remain in support with monthly security update releases through that date. Existing LTSC releases will continue to receive updates beyond that date based on their specific lifecycles.

Will they start supporting old CPUs? I couldn't install Windows 11 on my pre-gen-8 intel laptops, so I had to go with 10.

Nope, but they will support Linux. All the users who do not want Windows 11, AI spying on them, or don't want to buy new hardware, will be going to Linux. So thank you in advance Microsoft, we appreciate it.

How is Linux scheduling with intel's heterogonous CPUs? 12th gen and later?

I have no idea. I'm rocking a Dell Latitude from like 2014 with an Intel Core i3 something.

Ah well I have a 13th gen laptop I use primarily for emulation on-the-go, so if linux was even halfway decent, I'd probably switch it over.
