Microsoft tells Windows 10 users to just trade in their PC for a newer one, because how hard can it be?

Nice. Microsoft gave my computer more lifespan and freedom. I deleted Windows and installed Linux. Thank you.

Microsoft has a bright idea: just trade in your old PC and use the money to get a new one. Sheesh

There's just one small problem. Trade it in to who, Microsoft? F@#king Aquaman!?

You can give them to my new eh recycling facility.

What does this mean for me?

After October 14, 2025, Microsoft will no longer provide free software updates from Windows Update, technical assistance, or security fixes for Windows 10.

What can I do with my old computer?

Trade it in or recycle it with local organizations.

Will my Windows 10 PC stop working?

No. Your PC will continue to work, but support will be discontinued.

Why are they saying that the updates are free? I thought they were paid as part of the licensing.

Anyway, it's a lot easier to switch to a FOSS OS then it is to "trade" your pc.
