I have used hijackthis for years and going to the website and uploading the .txt file but now since I am on vista I know that much less about what each thing was I felt comfortable with XP going into the registry and editing myself but now with vista I feel lost and overwhelmed...
I am mostly looking for direction to other forumns that actually specialize in the hijackthis and registry editing but I am posting my .txt here and while people are giving me sites to look into maybe someone can give me a quick rundown on what this is saying, or if you see things that should not be there please let me know that too..
Governments begin warning all users on Windows 10 end of support and how to deal with it by Sayan Sen
Last month, Microsoft issued a reminder about Windows 10's upcoming end of support date. The various hardware vendor partners of Microsoft like Asus have also published their guidance for the same, such that users can prepare for the "mandatory upgrade to Windows 11."
While the upgrade is certainly not mandatory, as users can continue sticking to Windows 10 if they want, at least for a while, the governments are now beginning to issue advisories on the upcoming massive change. The Indian Computer Emergency Response Team (CERT-In) under the Government of India (GoI) has published guidance on the matter.
Like Microsoft, Asus, and others, the GoI has also recommended upgrading to Windows 11 to keep their systems secure. In the new advisory, it writes:
For enterprises as well as individual users who need more time to plan the upgrade, the CERT-In has reminded them about the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. It writes:
If you recall, Microsoft also extended the support for Microsoft 365 apps like Teams, Word, Excel, Outlook, OneDrive, and more, for another three years. You can find the advisory here under CIAD-2025-0023 on CERT-In's official website.
Meanwhile, the United States' Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA) is probably going to publish its own official guidance sometime soon, similar to how it did for Windows 7 and others. Others like the EU are going to follow suit as well.
If you do not like Microsoft's latest OS offering, you can also switch over to Linux. Recently, LibreOffice urged users to do so, citing the "real costs" of Windows 11.
