Office 2016/2019, VS2015, and Windows 10 all have become EOL!

Today is October 14th, 2025, which is the day that Microsoft ends complete support for the below four major products:

  • Office 2016
  • Office 2019
  • Visual Studio 2015
  • Windows 10

Office 2016 and 2019 brought many changes to the office suite that made productivity easier, including improvements across several areas of the office suite, including the three most famous apps from the suite: Word, Excel, and PowerPoint, alongside all the other bundled office applications like OneNote and Visio. They were released on September 22nd, 2015, and September 24th, 2018, respectively.

Visual Studio 2015 was released to make your IDE more powerful than before, because it brought many new features and improvements, such as more refactoring options, Entity Framework 7 preview, and better support for displays greater than 96 DPI. It was released on July 20th, 2015.

Windows 10 was released to not only bring new features and many user-level enhancements, including redesigns, but also addresses the common complaints that users were facing at the time that Windows 8 was released, such as bringing back the older start menu style found in Windows 7 instead of the full-screen Metro screen style that Windows 8 introduced. It was promised that Windows 10 would be the last Windows version at the time of the release, which was in July 29th, 2015, before Windows 11 made its appearance in October 5th, 2021.

Here’s the full list of the products that went out of support as of October 14th, 2025:

If you are using one of those products found in the list, please perform the appropriate upgrades, such as upgrading to Windows 11, upgrading your PC, or using Linux, of which the latter is more economical (yet needs adaptation and/or change) (and that we recommend) than the former two, to continue receiving support.
