Microsoft is releasing new versions of Windows 10 on a set schedule – and just as regularly retiring older versions from support.
Here are all the dates you need to know through mid-2021.
Microsoft's shift to Windows-as-a-service (WaaS) for Windows 10 yielded a repetitive, predictable schedule of version release and support expiration dates for the operating system.
In reality, Microsoft keeps rearranging, rejiggering and repositioning Windows 10's support and update practices.
Last year, Microsoft monkeyed with 10's arrival and departure itinerary by extending support for Enterprise and Education to 30 months.
This year the company said it was letting Windows 10 Home users decide when to download and install feature upgrades.
