Upgrade your unsupported operating system
Which Windows operating system version am I running?
What will happen?
On January 10, 2023, Microsoft ended support for Windows 7 and Windows 8.1 (including Extended Security Updates).
Due to possible changes made by Microsoft, ESET could be unable to release fixes and module updates for ESET applications running on these operating system versions after the Microsoft end of support date.
Continuation of module updates
Module updates for ESET Endpoint Antivirus and ESET Endpoint Security for Windows will continue after the Microsoft Entrust certificate expires on December 8, 2023. If you encounter any issues with module updates after this date, restart the device.
We recommend you update all modules in your ESET Endpoint Antivirus and ESET Endpoint Security for Windows application and verify your Update module version is 1036 or later.
How can I check module updates on my ESET Endpoint application?

If you must continue using the affected Windows versions, the recommended compatible combination of ESET business applications is to use the versions mentioned in the table above. For example, use ESET PROTECT 10.0 with ESET Endpoint Antivirus for Windows 9.1. Due to module update restrictions, the compatibility of these ESET application versions and affected operating systems is limited after December 8, 2023.
Support for the affected operating system could continue for other ESET applications, but it is not guaranteed. For more information, see the system requirements section of the applicable application help pages.
