Is Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC under the extended Service to 2032

Answer 1

Dear Holland LAPLANT,

Yes, select versions of Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC are covered under extended servicing through 2032, depending on the specific LTSC release. For example, Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 follows the Long-Term Servicing Channel model and receives security updates for up to 10 years from release, which includes extended support beyond the general Windows 10 retirement date of October 14, 2025.

This extended timeline is designed to support embedded and specialized devices that require long-term stability and minimal feature changes. We recommend confirming the exact version deployed in your environment to verify its individual support dates.
