You're going to have to upgrade eventually. You either do it for free now, or you pay later.

- BrockSamson 10y agoI would disagree. Depending on what you use your computer for you may find an alternative operating system that suits your needs. If you have Windows dependant software or workflows then you will eventually find that support for your preferred version of Windows is withdrawn. Microsoft will offer extended support for a minimum of 5 years from the date of a product's general availability. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/13853/windows-lifecycle-fact-sheet https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/help/13853/windows-lifec...
- Lan 10y agoWindows 7 has extended support through January 14, 2020[1], so even if he was forced to do so for some reason, it likely wont be years. And with the rate things are changing, who is to say that Windows will even be a requirement for him in 2020?
