Microsoft ended mainstream support for Windows 7 on January 13, 2015, but extended support won’t end until January 14, 2020.

Is Microsoft going to stop supporting Windows 7?

Microsoft will stop supporting Windows 7 one year from today. After that, you’re on your own — you won’t get updates or security fixes. If you still use Windows 7, it may be time to consider an upgrade. Starting Jan. 14, 2020, exactly one year from Monday, Microsoft will no longer support Windows 7.

What will happen when Windows 7 support ends?

Windows 7 support will end on January 14, 2020. While you could continue to use your PC running Windows 7, without continued software and security updates, it will be at greater risk for viruses and malware.
