Want to know when a Windows Embedded product will reach the end of it’s lifecycle and won’t be supported any longer?

  • Article

Windows Embedded products benefit from a long lifecycle. I covered this very topic in a previous post here.

You can find detailed information on when a specific Microsoft product (including Windows Embedded) will reach the end of its mainstream support or of its extended support on this website: www.microsoft.com/lifecycle.

For example for Windows CE 5 the mainstream support end date was 10/13/2009 while its extended support end date is 10/14/2014. Meaning customers who chose Windows CE 5 (available since 8/31/2004) can count on Microsoft’s support until 10/14/2014, not too bad, he?
