Microsoft reiterated in a blog that Windows 10 22H2 is the final feature version of Windows 10 and that all editions will receive security updates through October 14, 2025.

They've since followed up with Extended Stable channel update 112.0.5615.179 for Windows and Mac, as well as a Stable Channel Update for Desktop 113 for Windows, Mac and Linux.

May 2023 Patch Tuesday forecast Microsoft will provide the usual operating system and Office application updates next week.

I was wrong in my forecast last month, because Apple released a series of minor updates - Ventura 13.3.1, Safari 16.4.1, Monterey 12.6.5, and Big Sur 11.7.6, on the Friday and Monday right before Patch Tuesday.

Mozilla released their updates on Patch Tuesday in April again, so expect updates for Firefox, Firefox ESR, and Thunderbird next week.

This could be a very busy Patch Tuesday with a lot of potential third-party updates in addition to the usual Microsoft releases.
