Company offers unofficial security patches for Windows 10 until 2030
0Patch will offer its own Windows 10 security patches, free and paid, to keep W10 usable for the rest of the decade to come.
Windows 10 users not wanting to upgrade to Windows 11 or pay Microsoft an unclearly-priced Extended Security Update (ESU) subscription fee may be in luck— an alternative solution from "micropatch" provider 0Patch is available. Microsoft's security updates usually include the same improvements, if not more, but at a later date than 0Patch—and on a rare occasion, 0Patch even gets to point out mistakes in the official patch. However, ESU support for most Windows OSes seems to cap at around three extra years, and there's no Free tier in sight— 0Patch has promised to continue supporting Windows 10 until 2030 with Free and Pro (mostly paid, Pro) security patches.
