Microsoft’s Office Apps Breakup: Windows 10 Gets the Cold Shoulder After 2025!
Microsoft will end support for Office apps on Windows 10 after October 14, 2025. While the apps may still function, Microsoft strongly recommends upgrading to Windows 11 to avoid potential issues. Despite the push to Windows 11, many users resist due to TPM 2.0 requirements.
