Microsoft has just played its joker card twice in a week, forcing upgrades on millions of Windows PC owners. This will raise serious alarm bells for hundreds of million of users who may now need to upgrade their PCs with no alternative options.

Microsoft will end support for Microsoft 365 for Windows 10 this October, so you'll need to buy a new Windows 11 PC.

Case in point: A new support page says that Microsoft Office 365 will lose support on Windows 10 in October, the same time the OS is shelved. “Microsoft 365 apps will no longer be supported on Windows 10 after it reaches end of support on October 14, 2025,” says the page.

Windows 10 isn't the only Microsoft product that is due to lose support this coming October. In a blog post published Wednesday, the software giant said Microsoft 365 apps (aka Office) will no longer be supported in Windows 10 after Oct. 14, 2025. To continue using Microsoft 365 or Office, the company urges users to upgrade to Windows 11.

Microsoft will stop supporting Office apps on Windows 10 this year. Also it really wants you to upgrade to Windows 11. According to a Microsoft blog post, the company will end support for Microsoft 365 apps on Windows 10 on Oct.

If you're still running Windows 10 and you subscribe to Microsoft 365, your Microsoft 365 apps will cease to function on Oct. 14, 2025, according to an official Microsoft blog post. This will happen when Microsoft ends Windows 10 support,

What will that mean for 365, and what about enterprises who have the option to extend Windows 10 for more than just a year — at a steep cost? Microsoft’s most recent support document adds little helpful detail.

Microsoft is officially calling it quits on Windows 10 in 2025, and it's ending support for Office apps on the OS — but not entirely.

Microsoft has announced that it will finally end support for Microsoft 365 apps on Windows 10. Heres all you need to know.
