Microsoft Pulls the Plug on Windows 10 Beta Channel: Time to Embrace Windows 11 or Pay Up!
Microsoft is pulling the plug on the Windows 10 Beta Channel, moving insiders to the Release Preview Channel. Apparently, it’s time to bid adieu to Windows 10, as Microsoft nudges users toward Windows 11. The Beta Channel’s brief comeback is now history, making Windows 10 fans feel like it’s déjà vu all over again.

Hot Take:
Microsoft seems to be playing the role of the overly dramatic actor in a daytime soap opera, making a huge fuss about a feature, only to kill it off without any explanation. It’s like they opened a restaurant, served one dish, and then decided to close the place down because, why not? Windows 10 users, your invitation to the Release Preview Channel is here, and the Beta Channel is just as real as my New Year’s resolutions!
Key Points:
- Microsoft shut down the Windows 10 Beta Channel just five months after its reopening.
- Windows Insiders will be moved to the Release Preview Channel automatically.
- Windows 10 will reach its end of support on October 14, 2025.
- Extended Security Updates for Windows 10 will be available for $30 for home users.
- ESU will be available to enterprise customers starting November 1, 2024.
