Η Microsoft plans to end support for the Windows 10 της έκδοσης 1809, γνωστή και σαν ‘October 2018 Update'. Το λειτουργικό σύστημα θα σταματήσει να λαμβάνει ενημερώσεις security starting on May 12, 2020. If you don't remember version 1809, let us tell you that it was the most adventurous version of Windows, so much so that some called it Vista.

Windows 10 of 1809, με την κωδική ονομασία «Redstone 5», ήταν μια σημαντική ενημέρωση για την οικογένεια των Windows 10. Έφερε τον File Explorer με υποστήριξη του dark theme, προστέθηκε το Screen snip σαν μια νέα επιλογή για να ενεργοποιήσετε γρήγορα το Action center, το Cloud clipboard and in the Windows HD Color options in the Settings app.

Microsoft has withdrawn this version of Windows 10 (October 2018 Update) immediately after its release due to some critical bugs. On March 20, 2019, Microsoft re-released the operating system to the public.

According to the company's schedule, from May 12, 2020, all Windows 10 SKUs of version 1809 will no longer receive updates.

Running an older version of Windows on your computer is not safe, as such a version could allow hackers to exploit vulnerabilities that have not been closed with updates.
