Good morning, once the Microsoft Publisher is decommissioned in October 2026, will I still be able to use my purchased Publisher 2010?

    You will still be able to use Microsoft Publisher 2010 after it is decommissioned in October 2026. However, it is important to note that support for the perpetual version of Publisher will end on that date. This means that while you can continue to use the software, you will not receive any updates or support from Microsoft after October 1, 2026.

    If you are concerned about accessing your Publisher files in the future, it may be wise to consider converting them to another format, such as PDF, before the end of support date.
