Microsoft announced today that it would end support for Windows 10 21H2 in June when the Enterprise and Education editions reach the end of service.
"Customers who contact Microsoft Support after this date will be directed to update their device to the latest version of Windows 10 or upgrade to Windows 11 to remain supported."
Microsoft will enforce the installation of the Windows 10 2022 Update on consumer and non-managed business devices running Windows 10 until they reach end-of-service status.
"To help keep you protected and productive, Windows Update will automatically initiate a feature update for Windows 10 consumer devices and non-managed business devices that are at, or within several months of reaching end of servicing," Microsoft said.
This comes after Windows 11 21H2 systems were automatically updated to Windows 11 22H2 before reaching the end of support on October 11.
