Yes, enrollment explained.<\/span><\/a><\/div><\/section>\n<p>The slow rollout is perhaps intentional, allowing the company to monitor stability and address issues before scaling globally. A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/kb5063709-windows-10-august-2025-update\/\">cumulative update (KB5063709)<\/a> also addressed bugs that previously prevented the enrollment wizard from appearing, suggesting that the company is refining the process as it goes.<\/p>\n<p>Currently, there is no manual method to trigger the option. Users simply need to wait until Microsoft enables it on their computers. However, <strong>the company has reassured that the enrollment option will reach all eligible Windows 10 devices before official support ends on October 14, 2025.<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2>What the ESU program provides<\/h2>\n<p>The Extended Security Updates program provides users with an additional year of protection, extending critical security patch support until October 13, 2026. It&#8217;s important to note that ESU only includes security updates. There will be no new features, quality improvements, or direct technical support from Microsoft.<\/p>\n<p>Although originally designed for organizations, Microsoft is also making the program available to consumers with three ways to enroll:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Free option \u2013<\/strong> Available by backing up files to OneDrive, with or without a Microsoft 365 subscription.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Microsoft Rewards \u2013<\/strong> Redeemable with 1,000 Rewards points.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Paid plan \u2013<\/strong> $30 per year, which covers up to 10 devices tied to the same Microsoft account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Regardless of the method, a Microsoft account is now a mandatory requirement for enrollment, even for paying users, who must sign in to complete the process. This change has frustrated some who expected offline purchase options.<\/p>\n<h2>Upgrade push continues<\/h2>\n<p>While the Extended Security Updates program offers a temporary lifeline, the software giant is also using the approaching deadline to encourage users to <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/upgrade-windows-10-windows-11\/\">upgrade to Windows 11<\/a>. The company has issued full-screen reminders urging users to upgrade and warning them of the risks associated with staying on an unsupported operating system.<\/p>\n<p>For those with compatible hardware, it&#8217;s possible to upgrade to Windows 11 through an in-place upgrade or <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/clean-install-windows-11\/\">clean installation<\/a>. For <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/upgrade-windows-11-unsupported-hardware\/\">unsupported computers<\/a>, installation remains technically possible with workarounds, though the company discourages it.<\/p>\n<h2>What you should do now<\/h2>\n<p>If you plan to stay on Windows 10, it&#8217;s best not to wait until the last minute. Although you can&#8217;t force the option, you can <a href=\"https:\/\/pureinfotech.com\/install-updates-manually-windows-11\/\">check for updates<\/a> and confirm that KB5063709 or a later update is installed on your computer. Then, look for the <strong>&#8220;Enroll now&#8221;<\/strong> option on the &#8220;Windows Update&#8221; settings page.<\/p>\n<p>If your computer is compatible, you can skip the ESU program and plan your Windows 11 upgrade path as soon as possible.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Microsoft promised ESU enrollment by mid-August, but the rollout is happening in waves, leaving many users waiting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":180304,"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":[10,23],"tags":[2540],"class_list":["post-180295","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news","category-windows","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>Missing Windows 10 ESU enrollment option?
