Windows 10 support end date

Lightroom Classic will not be disabled on old platforms running old OS versions, but for obvious reasons, new versions will only be tested on current and supported OS versions. Even today, with a current Windows 10 version on my nearly ten-year-old laptop, there are problems (compatibility messages)because of my build in graphics card. I will need to change soon by acquiring new hardware. Nothing dramatic.

I remember reading not to long ago that Lightroom will only be able to be used with windows 10 until a certain date/year and then will only work with Windows 11 ...

Yes, the support end date for Windows 10 is October 2025. From this date Microsoft doesn't publish any updates, patches and/or bug fixes. But...

... this doesn't mean that from this date Lightroom doesn't run on Windows 10.

But regardless, it is highly recommended to change to Windows 11 before this date (or 12 or whatever is recent at this time).

This is the only way to ensure that the known bugs or security leaks are or will be patched.

The end of support date from Microsoft for Windows 10 is October 14, 2025. You should upgrade to Windows 11 before that date at least.
