    Phrased differently: Microsoft announces the end of support for a product. If you want to pay for it, they will make an exception and continue to support it just for you.

    I understand people dislike Windows 11, but complaining about life cycle management isn’t going to help that.

      Should have figured it was clickbait. They’ve done this with several previous versions after EOL security support ended AFAIK.

        I’m pretty sure Microsoft has been patching pirated copies of Windows for decades at this point.
