Today means the end of free support for Windows 7. While this isn’t the end of the world, if you’re looking for free support for Windows 7 directly from Microsoft, you are now out of luck (although, myself and many others offer our assistance in the Microsoft Answers forums for consumers and Technet forums for IT Pro’s). Microsoft will continue to support Windows 7 with it’s Extended Support, which will offer patches and updates until 2020 when it reaches it’s end of life, similar to the recent Windows XP end of life.
