What happened when Microsoft stopped supporting Win7? what will be the impact on us?

According to Microsoft's official data, computers running Windows 7 will no longer receive security updates after January 14, 2020. Therefore, you must upgrade to a modern operating system (such as Windows 10) to get the latest security updates to help ensure that you and your data are more secure.

In addition, Microsoft customer Service no longer provides Windows 7 technical support. Over time, related Windows 7 services will also be deactivated. For example, some games, such as Internet backgammon and Internet checkers, as well as the Windows Media Center electronic TV guide will be retired in January 2020.

If you continue to use Windows 7 after the end of support, your computer will still work, but will be more vulnerable to security risks and viruses. Your computer will continue to start and run, but you will no longer receive Microsoft software updates, including security updates.

Ten years after the initial release of Windows 7, support will end on January 14, 2020. As a Windows 7 customer, you will be notified to set aside a lot of time to prepare. After that, Microsoft will no longer provide technical assistance and help protect computer updates. These notifications will link to information to help you implement recommended actions, answer questions you may encounter, and provide resources to assist you during this transition period.

Microsoft Security Essentials (MSE) will continue to receive signature updates after January 14, 2020, but the MSE platform will not be updated. For more information, click here to learn more about Microsoft Security Essentials.
