The old computer became rubbish because Windows 10 ran out of support.

Windows 10 is running out of free supply time on October 14, 2025. The problem is that there are over 400 million old computers around the world that cannot upgrade to Windows 11 because they stick to hardware specifications like TPM 2.0 and newer CPUs. In fact, the machine still works well, but it risks becoming a huge pile of electronic waste just because the software expires.

.

Microsoft has opened up the Extended Security Updates (ESU) option, allowing users to continue receiving security patches for another year until October 2026, but none of the new features are considered time-buying only; it doesn't solve the problem in the long run.

.

Meanwhile, activist groups like The Restart Project and Right to Repair Europe also issued a Toolkit to prepare for when Windows 10 ended supporting and came out calling for Microsoft to actually extend the life of Windows 10 supporting, not force people to buy new machines or pay more, because otherwise the still-good machines would be unnecessarily discarded.

.

So which way do users like us choose? Some people might think it's time to buy a new machine, some would like to try to use Linux or another operating system, and many people might choose to stay with Windows 10 while accepting the risks, or at least using ESU as a temporary solution. This is not only a user decision, but also a reflection on the future of software, hardware, and electronic waste that we all face together.
