Microsoft Will End Support for Windows 8.1 in January 2023
Jul. 3, 2022RIP, Windows 8.1!
Now, Microsoft says that after the support for Windows 8.1 ends on the said date,users who have Microsoft 365 will stop receiving feature-focused, security, and other quality updates for the Office apps. So, if users want to continue using Office apps, they need to upgrade their devices to a compatible Windows OS. Otherwise, they can accessOffice on the webas an alternative.
So, if you are a Windows 8.1 user, you could start looking for Windows 11 orWindows 11 SE-powered devicesbefore Microsoft stops supporting your OS next year. You can also consider switching to Chromebooks as Google is continually improving Chrome OS to make it on par with Windows eventually.
A geek at heart, you’ll find me fidgeting with an iOS device or sitting in front of the laptop, scouring the internet to find interesting technological innovations. In my free time, you’d find me playing Valorant or listening to Pink Floyd.
