Windows 10 - EoL
Tuesday, October 14. 2025
Today is 14th Oct 2025. End of support for the last version of Windows.
Good thing is, I can go for a paid support model, Extended Security Updates (ESU).
Oh wait!
The text says: "Enrollment for Windows 10 Extended Security Updates will be coming soon."
Looks like I'm not alone with this problem. "Enrolment for Windows 10 Extended Security Updates will be coming soon." still showing up not even a week before end of support - Can I fix this?
People are trying all kinds of registry tricks, in style of
reg.exe query "HKCU\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Windows\ConsumerESU"
to get sanity on this one. My thinking is ESUEligibilityResult value 0xd = ComingSoon - EEA_REGION_POLICY_ENABLED
I'd rather get clarity on this one rather than guesswork.

Obviously, being a lazy person, my idea is to not do much. Getting an operating system version which doesn't provide me anything I'd like to have is considered as "doing much". Getting a Windows 10 LTSC -key and possibly re-installing, is "doing very much".
