I was hoping it was just gonna stop annoying me every 12-36 hours but it feels like it’s updating even more recently.

    Are you in Europe and do you have a Microsoft account configured? Them you’d receive updates until 10/26.

    Does Windows update (not) show that there’s no longer any support?

        Pro or Enterprise? Or even better, Enterprise IoT LSTC? The latter is going to get security updates until 2032.

        And those enrolled ($61) in the Extended Security Updates program get one more year of security support (not feature updates), and the various Enterprise versions will continue to get updates for up to another seven years, depending on the version.

        Microsoft didn’t stop updating Windows 10 and they won’t for quite some time. They’re simply no longer offering those updates to most users of the consumer versions of Windows.

        Windows Update can also hand you updates to your drivers independent of the support status of your copy of Windows. For instance, if you install a copy of Windows 7 even today it will still pull driver files from Microsoft.

          Just Pro. It was the bare minimum I needed to have access to the Group Policy Editor that let me actually control everything and not have what amounts to child-safety locks on everything deeper than basic settings.
