During its useful life, Windows 10 It has received two major annual updates, new versions of the system full of changes and new features that, little by little, have shaped the operating system. However, Windows 11 has changed this development model, reducing the versions of the operating system to one and, of course, extending this change to its predecessor as well. Windows 10 has less than three years left to live, and we already know how many new updates are going to arrive, until then, to the operating system: zero.
Windows 10 22H2 reached all users of the operating system at the end of last year. This version was already a weak update, in all senses, since it hardly introduced any changes or new features, and it focused, above all, on maintenance. All users who have not yet upgraded to Windows 10 will have this version installed if they have their operating system properly updated.
After the summer, Windows 11 users look forward to receiving the 23H2, the new update of the operating system with more news and improvements for the operating system. And, initially, this update should also reach Windows 10, although smaller and focused on maintenance. However, Microsoft has confirmed that it won’t be like that.
Windows 10 22H2 will be the last version of the operating system. All Windows 10 users will need to make sure they have this update installed as it will be the last update to continue to receive support and updates until the end of the operating system’s life.

We remind you that Windows 10 will reach its end of support in October 2025. And this is a problem, since 73% of Windows users still use this operating system on their computers. And, in little more than two years, they will all be abandoned and without support.
New Windows just around the corner
At least, it hasn’t all been bad news at Microsoft. And it is that the company has confirmed that the expected LTSC version of Windows 11 will arrive very soon. Specifically, Microsoft plans to launch this edition of its operating system in the second half of 2024. LTSC editions are highly appreciated by users because they offer extended 5-year support (without having to install newer versions released by Microsoft), as well as removing all bloatware and unnecessary Windows components to make Windows run faster and easier. more private.
LTSC are enterprise editions (in fact, they are only in Enterprise and Enterprise IoT mode) and require an enterprise license to use them, although users always find a way to remove this limitation.
And, in addition to this new edition of Windows 11, rumors about the arrival of the successor to Windows 11, the new Windows 12. And it makes sense. It’s rare that Microsoft kills off a system, like Windows 10, leaving only one operating system as a choice for users. What’s more, with the end of Windows 10 support, Windows 11 will already be 4 years old, a perfect age for Microsoft to offer users what will be its successor.
Anyway, these are just rumors. Also Windows 10 was going to be the last Windows released by the company, and here we are.
