    Microsoft retiring older version from support


    Dear Professor ,



    Next Month [APRIL 2019] , Microsoft retiring older version from support, stops serving security updates to windows 10 Home, Windows 10 Pro and Windows 10 Pro Workstation running version 1709 (Fall Creators Update) and Windows 10 Enterprise 1607 and Windows 10 Education 1607(Anniversary Update).



    My question :


    Is that mean we will stop receiving any patches update(Cumulative/security update) from Microsoft for the related OS version?

    The reason is that my company is having a bunch of Windows 10 Pro (1709) and Windows 10 Enterprise (1607). I need confirmation for the above for my Team to plan for upgrading those affected PCs in order to be compliant for Company's Security policy.

    :)

    Swapping to an older version of windows

    Is there still an official way to drop back to an older version of windows, I honestly don't mind using a 3rd party way. If possible, can you list step by step instructions or a link to an easy to use website. Thanks.

    Hyper-V Older Version support

    Hyper-V has caught my attention that it cannot support older versions of Windows, I know that Hyper-V doesn't have a mouse driver for these older versions, but will Microsoft be working on it soon?
