Windows 8.1 EOL

Back to index

Today Windows 8.1 reached the end of its extended support period, leaving Windows 10 and Windows 11 the only desktop Windows versions still supported by Microsoft.

I still remember the times when Windows 8 was new and it felt very strange to me that it's already been 10 years since its release.
