Extended Security Updates for Windows 10:

For individuals: An enrollment wizard will be available through
notifications and in Settings, making it easy to enroll in ESU directly
from your personal Windows 10 PC. Through the enrollment wizard, you’ll
be able to choose from three options:

- Use Windows Backup to sync your settings to the cloud—at no additional cost..
- Redeem 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points—at no additional cost..
- Pay $30 USD (local pricing may vary).

Once you select an option and follow the on-screen steps, your PC will automatically be enrolled. ESU coverage for personal devices runs from
Oct. 15, 2025, through Oct. 12, 2027. Starting today, the enrollment
wizard is available in the Windows Insider Program and will begin
rolling out as an option to Windows 10 customers in July, with broad availability expected by mid-August

Editor’s note – June 25, 2026 – This post has been updated to reflect that the Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for personal
use devices is being provided for an additional year, with coverage now available through Oct. 12, 2027. This extension provides customers with
more time to transition to a new Windows 11 PC while continuing to
receive critical security updates.
