Still on Windows 10? Heres what Microsoft Defender can and cant do for you

General News

Summary

Microsoft says Defender will keep working on Windows 10 even after the operating system loses support. Defender Antivirus on personal PCs will continue to receive security updates through October 2028, while Microsoft Defender for Endpoint also remains available for enterprise and business customers on legacy Windows versions. The article stresses that protection is not the same as full security because Windows 10 no longer gets normal bug fixes and security patches. It also points readers toward Windows 11 or Microsoft’s Extended Security Update program as the main options for staying protected.
