Microsoft discontinued support for the Windows 10 operating system on October 14, 2025. If you use Windows 10, your ESET Windows home applications may be outdated and approaching End of Life status. Upgrade to Windows 11.

Notification

Microsoft ended support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. Personal devices can receive security updates until October 12, 2027, through the consumer Extended Security Updates (ESU) program. In the European Economic Area (EEA), enrollment in the consumer ESU program is free. To keep receiving security updates, sign in to your device with a Microsoft account.

Do these steps in order:

Step one

Do you have the latest Windows 10 updates or are updates active?

If you are running Windows 10 and automatically get updates, you do not need to do anything. Windows Update will download and install the update. To ensure your device is up to date, navigate to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update and see your update status and available updates.

Step three

Manual upgrade

If the automatic upgrade is not enabled or was not successful, you must install the latest version manually. Upgrade your ESET Windows home application to the latest version.
