Work on the next version of the ReactOS operating system took a year and a half. Version 0.4.16 has just been released.

ReactOS is a free and open-source operating system. The developers’ goal is for the system to be as compatible as possible with Windows systems.

Version 0.4.16 continues to aim for compatibility with Windows Server 2003, but at the same time, work is underway on interfaces and library exports to ensure compatibility with newer versions of Windows.

The new version of the system introduces a number of new features and fixes many bugs.

Win10 ESU

In 2025, just before the official end of technical support for Windows 10, Microsoft launched a program to extend security updates for consumers until October 13, 2026. That date is no longer valid.

According to the latest information, support for ESU has been extended to October 12, 2027.

The Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for Windows 10 is designed to provide customers with a more secure option for continuing to use Windows 10 computers after October 14, 2025.

Win10 ESU

Windows 10 was released on July 29, 2015. Ten years have passed since then. As a result, the operating system should no longer receive technical support. Will that happen?

According to Microsoft’s previous announcements, technical support is scheduled to end on October 14, 2025.

Initially, it was announced that companies would be able to purchase additional technical support. However, this option did not apply to home users.

To everyone’s surprise, it was soon announced that regular consumers would also be eligible for extended support.
