Microsoft will let some Windows 7 customers get free security updates for an extra year

In four months time, Windows 7 will reach end-of-life and will no longer receive security updates.
That’s going to be a problem for some enterprises which still run the decade-old operating system. Starting January 14, 2020, Windows 7 computers will stop receiving security patches, leaving enterprises vulnerable to malware.
