Current status as of October 14, 2025
October 14, 2025, Windows 10 has reached end of support*. Devices running Windows 10 will no longer receive fixes for known issues, time zone updates, technical support, or monthly security and preview updates containing protection from the latest security threats.
See our recent blog post for guidance on Windows 10 end of support and options for moving to Windows 11. The options include:
- Check if your current Windows 10 PC can upgrade to Windows 11.
- Purchase a new Windows 11 PC.
- Purchase Extended Security Updates (ESU) for organizations of all sizes as previously announced in April 2024.
- For the first time ever, you can enroll your personal Windows 10 PC in the ESU program. See Windows 10 Consumer Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for detailed information on the ESU program for personal devices.
*Note: Long-Term Servicing Branch (LTSB) and Long-Term Servicing Channel (LTSC) releases are subject to different lifecycle support policies. Check out the Microsoft lifecycle website for more information.

After installing the January 2026 Windows security update (KB5073724), credential prompt failures might occur in some remote connection applications. This includes remote desktop connections using the Windows App on Windows client devices, on Azure Virtual Desktop and Windows 365. The Windows App is affected by this issue on specific Windows builds and can experience sign-in failures.
Other remote connections and related applications may be similarly impacted.
Resolution: To address this issue, an out-of-band (OOB) update was released January 17, 2026, in the Microsoft Update Catalog. It can be found as KB5077796.
If you have not yet deployed the January 2026 Windows security update and your IT environment includes the affected applications and features, we recommend applying this OOB update instead. For additional guidance, see How to download updates from the Microsoft Update Catalog. As always, we recommend you install the latest update for your device as it contains important improvements and issue resolutions including this one.
If the OOB is not installed, one of the following connection options can be used as a temporary workaround:
- Use the Remote Desktop client for Windows to connect to Azure Virtual Desktop here (/previous-versions/remote-desktop-client/whats-new-windows?tabs=windows-msrdc-msi)
- Connect using the Windows App Web Client at windows.cloud.microsoft
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 25H2; Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 10, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 21H2, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019
- Server: Windows Server 2025; Windows Server 2022; Windows Server 2019

Certain laws require Microsoft to protect children from harmful and illegal content on the internet. Microsoft is committed to creating tools for parents and guardians to help them in guiding their children’s digital experiences and protect them from harmful and illegal online content.
One of the available tools is web filtering, which lets a parent or guardian filter websites. Currently, Microsoft Edge is the only supported browser that provides this functionality within Microsoft Family Safety, allowing Edge to be used by default on the child’s device after web filtering is enabled. Once web filtering is enabled, a parent or guardian needs to approve other unsupported browsers (any browser other than Edge) before they can be used. This helps parents understand that different settings apply to other browsers when it comes to blocking inappropriate websites and filtering search results for their children.
The blocking behavior continues to work for unsupported browsers, however, when unsupported browsers update to a new version, the latest version of the browser cannot be blocked until we add it to the block list. Microsoft is currently adding the latest versions of unsupported browsers, to the block list. As a result, some browsers may temporarily appear unblocked during this update process. We're actively working to ensure all latest versions of browsers are blocked, reinforcing our commitment to parents and guardians.
As Microsoft continues to update the block list, we’ve received reports of a new issue affecting Google Chrome and some browsers. When children try to open these browsers, they shut down unexpectedly. However, the standard workflow is to prompt a parental approval message stating, “You’ll need to ask to use this app”. Once the approval is consented, the browser operates as intended. This issue is only observed when the Activity reporting feature is turned off.
Workaround: The browser shutdown issue can be temporarily mitigated by turning on Activity reporting under Windows settings in Family Safety. Parents will then be able to receive approval requests as expected.
Resolution:
- Temporary access to unsupported browsers: As of June 25, 2025, Microsoft included the latest versions of unsupported browsers into the Family Safety’s feature, and they are now blocked as intended. However, new versions of unsupported browsers released after this date might temporarily appear unblocked. This temporary gap will be resolved in the future, and this documentation will be updated to inform you when the full resolution is available.
- Missing parental consent prompt: Fixed in the July non-security preview update (KB5062649), released July 22, 2025. The fix is gradually rolling out and will be automatically enabled on devices with KB5062649 installed or later updates.
Affected platforms:
- Client: Windows 11, version 24H2; Windows 11, version 23H2; Windows 11, version 22H2; Windows 10, version 22H2
- Server: None
