As previously announced, Windows 8.1 has reached end of support. Technical assistance and software updates will no longer be provided beyond January 10, 2023. If you have devices running Windows 8.1, we recommend upgrading them to a more current, in-service, and supported Windows release. If a device does not meet the technical requirements to run a more current release of Windows, we recommend that you replace the device with one that supports Windows 11. Microsoft will not be offering an Extended Security Update (ESU) program for Windows 8.1.


Continuing to use Windows 8.1 might increase an organization’s exposure to security risks or impact its ability to meet compliance obligations. Review the details and answers to questions at the Microsoft Support entry Windows 8.1 support will end on January 10, 2023.
