From bleepingcomputer.com: Microsoft ends support for Office apps on Windows 10 in October ------ Even Office LTSC on Windows 10 will stop receiving updates on October. From Office 2024 and Office LTSC 2024 FAQ:
To be fair, I cannot imagine that Microsoft will stop providing Security Updates for Office on Windows 10. There are two highly possible options for Windows 10 users: 1) The last officially supported version (v2510?) will continue receiving security updates till 10-2028 (like they did with Windows 7 and v2002, which was updated till 2023) 2) You can still update to versions beyond v2510 but it will be declared as "unsupported" 3) You can still update to versions beyond v2510 till the end of Extended Consumer Support (10-2026) 4) Support will end with v2510 (UNLIKELY -> W10 is the most popular Windows version. No Windows version apart from Windows 10 remained at the top a few months before it's EOL, not even Windows 7. They cannot drop it)
Better install office 2024 ltsc to bypass end of life ( bypass ) Eg for windows 7 to bypass office january 2023 end of life install build 1808 aka official 2019 ltsc channel working up to september 2023 ( 9 month of extra update but old look ( because latest build are 2002 news visual style but stuck to january 2023... )
I'm not sure if I understand this thread correctly, but I have a similar question: 1. I have a regular Windows 10 Pro with Microsoft 365 Apps (Word, Excel, Outlook, etc.) and I'm thinking of going with Extended Security Updates (ESU) so that I can still use Windows 10 until October 2028. In this case, are you saying that even though Microsoft 365 is officially no longer supported (probably for formality only) after the Windows 10 October 2025 EOL, 365 will still most likely receive security updates for quite some time on a Windows 10 system?
UPDATE: MS backtracks and extends Office support for Windows 10 The Verge: Microsoft extends Office app support on Windows 10 to 2028 Microsoft 365 apps will continue to get security updates on Windows 10 for another three years. Microsoft revealed earlier this year that it was planning to stop supporting Office apps (Microsoft 365) on Windows 10 after the October 14th end of support cutoff. Now, Microsoft is performing a U-turn and has pledged to continue providing security updates for Office apps on Windows 10 for an additional three years. ------ Microsoft.com: What Windows end of support means for Office and Microsoft 365 Microsoft 365: Support for Windows 10 will end on October 14, 2025. After that date, if you're running Microsoft 365 Apps on a Windows 10 device, the applications will continue to function as before. However, we strongly recommend upgrading to Windows 11 to avoid performance and reliability issues over time. In the interest of maintaining your security while you upgrade to Windows 11, we will continue providing security updates for Microsoft 365 on Windows 10 for a total of three years after Windows 10 end of support, ending on October 10, 2028. Office Home & Business, Office Home & Student, and other versions of Office: Non-subscription versions of Office, such as Office Home & Student, Office Home & Business, or Office Professional Plus, will continue to be fully supported based on the Fixed Lifecycle Policy. (Which for Office 2024 is Oct 9, 2029 based on Lifecycle product search) --- The Office 2024 and Office LTSC 2024 FAQ still has the text "Important: Windows 10 is supported only until October 14, 2025." Maybe it will be removed at some point.
