Microsoft: Windows 11 24H2 Home and Pro reached end of support
BLUF
Windows 11 24H2 Home and Pro have reached end of support, increasing security risk for unpatched systems.
NEWS
Microsoft announced that Windows 11 24H2 Home and Pro editions have reached end of support. Devices on these versions will no longer receive monthly security or non-security preview updates. Users must move to a newer supported Windows 11 release to continue receiving patches.
Why I Care
Systems left on unsupported builds are more exposed to newly discovered vulnerabilities, malware, and compliance issues. This affects consumers, small businesses, and IT teams that have not yet upgraded or deployed extended support options.
Next Steps
Upgrade eligible devices to the latest supported Windows 11 version as soon as possible. Inventory remaining 24H2 Home and Pro systems, test applications for compatibility, and plan migration before further exposure accumulates. If available, consider Extended Security Updates only as a temporary bridge while upgrading.
