However, on its support website, there&#8217;s new information indicating that WebView2 Runtime, which is the motor for web content in apps, is expected to retain support for an additional three years to comply with the extended update program for businesses.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the <a href=\"https:\/\/learn.microsoft.com\/en-in\/deployedge\/microsoft-edge-support-lifecycle#w\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">support page<\/a>, the company says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>Microsoft Edge and the Microsoft WebView2 Runtime will continue to receive updates on Windows 10 22H2 until at least October 2028, coinciding with the end of the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. The ESU program won&#8217;t be required for devices to continue receiving Microsoft Edge or WebView2 Runtime updates.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>For a little context, the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program is available for both businesses and regular consumers, but consumers will only get one year of security updates, while businesses can enroll devices for up to three years since the end of support for Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p>This news only means that if you choose to <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/enroll-extended-security-updates-esu-windows-10\/\">enroll your computer in the program<\/a> to continue receiving security updates, you&#8217;ll continue to be able to use Microsoft Edge as your web browser. However, for clarification, you don&#8217;t need to enroll in the program to receive updates for the web browser since it&#8217;s independent from the operating system.<\/p>\n<h2>Other Microsoft products&#8217; lifecycle<\/h2>\n<p>Furthermore, this schedule aligns with the end of support for the <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/run-microsoft-defender-full-virus-scan-windows-11\/\">Microsoft Defender Antivirus<\/a>, which the software giant has <a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.windows.com\/windowsexperience\/2025\/06\/24\/stay-secure-with-windows-11-copilot-pcs-and-windows-365-before-support-ends-for-windows-10\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">previously confirmed<\/a> will also end in 2028.<\/p>\n<p>Also, the <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/microsoft-365-personal-vs-microsoft-365-family-features-pricing\/\">Microsoft 365 apps (formerly Office)<\/a> for home and commercial computers will continue to receive updates until October 10, 2028, and they may also receive new features through August 2026.<\/p>\n<h2>Nvidia drivers end of support for Windows 10<\/h2>\n<p>Although this is good news for some users, this only applies to specific Microsoft products. For example, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.theverge.com\/news\/716607\/nvidia-geforce-game-ready-driver-window-10\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nvidia<\/a> has already announced that it&#8217;ll discontinue its Game Ready Driver releases for Windows 10 in October 2026.<\/p>\n<p>Nvidia isn&#8217;t offering another three years, but the schedule aligns with the additional year of support that Microsoft will be providing through the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for consumers.<\/p>\n<h2>Options to upgrade from Windows 10<\/h2>\n<p>If you still have a computer running Windows 10, you still have several options.\u00a0If your computer configuration meets the minimum hardware requirements, you should consider <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/upgrade-windows-10-windows-11\/\">upgrading to Windows 11<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>If the device doesn&#8217;t meet the requirements, you should still consider <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/upgrade-windows-11-unsupported-hardware\/\">upgrading the unsupported hardware to Windows 11<\/a>, but know that your setup will remain in an unsupported state.<\/p>\n<p>When installing a newer version of the operating system on unsupported hardware, you won&#8217;t be able to contact the company for support, and updates won&#8217;t be guaranteed, but it could be your best option.<\/p>\n<p>Alternatively, you can also think about switching platforms. For example, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/switch-from-windows-10-to-linux-mint\/\">switch to Linux Mint<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/install-chrome-os-flex\/\">Google&#8217;s ChromeOS Flex<\/a>. These operating systems are free and can be installed on older hardware.<\/p>\n<p>The only caveat is the learning curve of switching to another operating system and software compatibility, since you cannot run Windows applications on Linux or ChromeOS Flex.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft confirms Edge will get updates on Windows 10 until at least October 2028, extending support beyond the operating system&#8217;s end of life.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":179812,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1758,10,23],"tags":[2456,20,2540],"class_list":["post-179809","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-apps","category-news","category-windows","tag-microsoft-edge","tag-web-browsing","tag-windows-10"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Microsoft Edge support will end in October 2028 for Windows 10 - Pureinfotech<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 will keep getting updates until at least October 2028, long after the OS\u2019s official end of support in 2025.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/microsoft-edge-support-end-october-2028-windows-10\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 will Get Updates Until October 2028\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Microsoft Edge on Windows 10 will keep getting updates until at least October 2028, long after the OS\u2019s official end of support in 2025.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/microsoft-edge-support-end-october-2028-windows-10\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Pureinfotech \u2022 Windows 10 &amp;
