With the end of the Windows 10 support on October 14, 2025, Microsoft multiplies the arguments to encourage its customers to go to Windows 11. But that is not to everyone’s taste, and a user pursues the Redmond firm in court, requiring an extension of the support.
The end date of the Windows 10 support is inevitably closer. Planned October 14, 2025Microsoft continues to multiply the arguments so that recalcitrant users upgrade their PCs: explanatory notification, easy migration (but paying), improvements and new features, or official solutions to win a year of sub -windows 10 users … but this hand forcing on the part of Microsoft is not to the taste of everyone, and A user goes so far as to file a complaint against the firm.
A user pursues Microsoft to justice to extend the Windows 10 support
Incompatibilities of a confidentiality parameter or with a pilot, a device that does not respect the minimum configuration required for upgrading … Multiple are the problems that can brake the passage from Windows 10 to Windows 11. And while Windows 10 still has 43 % of market share, according to our colleagues from XDA, a user of the name of Lawrence Klein complaint against Microsoft, to obtain the extension of the Windows 10 supportas long as users do not abandon the operating system-that is to say as long as it does not pass under the significant bar of 10 %.
According to Klein, with the end of the Windows 10 support, Microsoft would endanger millions of userssince he “ It is likely that millions of users will not buy new devices, or will pay for a support extension ». That Microsoft officially says goodbye to Windows 10, after ten years of good and loyal service, does not mean that computers that run under this version of the operating system will no longer work after this fateful date. On the other hand, they will no longer receive security updates or features, in fact increasing their vulnerability to cyber attacks and the number of potential incompatibilities with recent software. And Klein is particularly worried about companies that store sensitive data.
He also accuses the Redmond firm of ” Monopolize the generativ AI markete », Many PCs do not have the minimum configuration required for upgrading. According to the complainant, Microsoft encourages his customers, through this, to buy new Windows 11 PCs, immediately equipped with Copilot, his house AI. If the complaint does not succeed, to go to Windows 11 users will indeed have to change the machine – or to force its installation. Otherwise, to keep Windows 10, they can spend 1,000 Microsoft points or register for the ESU program (Extended Security Updates). Last possible solution: Choose another operating system corresponding more to their needs.
