Citing the impact of ‘the public health situation’ on customers, Microsoft is going to continue to issue security updates for some flavors of Windows 10 1709 for six additional months.
Microsoft’s planned end of support cut-off date for Windows 10 1709 was going to be on April 14. But, on March 19, the company began notifying customers that it had pushed that date back to October 13 for those running Enterprise, Education and IoT versions of the product. Microsoft’s post doesn’t refer to the COVID-19 coronavirus by name, but that’s the implication as the reason for the push-back.
