PSA: Some other versions of Windows are losing support on October 14 too by Usama Jawad All of us here at Neowin likely know pretty well by now that Windows 10 is reaching end of support on October 14, 2025. You can extend support through paid and "free" means, but if you don't, you won't get any more security or feature updates following the aforementioned date. We also highlighted that the Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) version Windows 10 22H2 is also reaching end of support on that date. Now, Microsoft has reminded customers that yet another variant of Windows is reaching end of life on October 14, 2025 too. On the Windows Release Health dashboard, Microsoft has published a reminder that the Enterprise, Education, and IoT SKUs of Windows 11, version 22H2 will hit end of support on October 14 as well. It is important to keep in mind that the Home and Pro variants of Windows 11, version 22H2 already reached end of life on October 8, 2024, and the extra year of lease on life will end for other SKUs within a few months too. Windows 11, version 22H2 for IoT, Enterprise, and Education was released on September 20, 2022, which means that they would have received just over three years of support by the time they "die", compared to the regular two years for Home and Pro. Customers on any of these versions should consider upgrading to version 23H2 or 24H2 as soon as possible, which have end of support dates of November 10, 2026 and October 12, 2027, respectively. Staying on a supported version of Windows is crucial as that allows you to receive regular security updates on your machine. If you're an IT admin, you should immediately begin planning a migration to a supported version of the operating system, and if you're an employee or someone using these versions of Windows in some other scenario, go to Settings > System > About and check out Windows Specifications > Version. -

Microsoft is adding some very useful features to Word, Teams, Outlook, and more by Usama Jawad Image via Microsoft Microsoft 365 is the Redmond tech firm's premier solution for Office apps and cloud storage, among other things. Microsoft offers both consumer- and enterprise-oriented subscriptions for this solution, enabling customers to take full advantage of cloud-powered capabilities, in contrast to the LTSC versions of Office. Microsoft 365 apps and services regularly receive new updates and the good thing is that Microsoft tracks them in a very transparent way on its public roadmap. The Redmond company has updated its Microsoft 365 Roadmap with a lot of items in the past week or so, and there are several interesting features there that may excite its customers. For starters, Word is getting a very useful utility that will likely help people writing detailed documents using the software. Microsoft is integrating third-party citation providers in the Reference tab, so that users can quickly add citations. This is being made available to GCC, GCC High, and Department of Defense (DoD) customers on desktop and web this month. There are several improvements on the way for Copilot Notebooks too. Users can customize the format, style, and duration of Audio Overviews in the application through natural language prompts. These Audio Overviews can then be saved on OneDrive so that they can be shared with others too. All of these capabilities are landing on the web next month. Speaking of Copilot, Microsoft is moving the navigation pane for Copilot Chat from the right side of the app to the left. Apart from retaining the existing features, this repositioning allows Microsoft to add new capabilities such as an All Conversations tab, while also streamlining the overall navigation experience. This is being implemented for all customers using Outlook and Teams on the web from next month. In the latter software, Microsoft is also introducing regional settings that gives controls over the app's language and datetime formats. This is being made available for all Teams customers on Android, iOS, desktop, and the web from next month. Meanwhile, the desktop version of Teams is exclusively gaining the ability next month to search for meetings and participants in the search bar and take actions directly from there. Available actions include viewing recaps, accessing the dedicated meetings tab, and RSVP-ing. Microsoft added 39 items to the Microsoft 365 Roadmap, so you can understand that the selection of items described above is only scratching the tip of the iceberg. Check out other upcoming capabilities like Universal Print enhancements and more Copilot improvements on the dedicated webpage here. -
