It has come to the end of its support lifecycle. Today was the last set of updates it will ever receive.

I used Vista from 2007 until Windows 8 came out. Never really had any issues with it

At work we literally have more XP than Vista machines in the environment, which is about 4-5 to 0 lol.

Many software vendors have dropped support for it outright. In terms of security, an OS almost always becomes susceptible within a few days as most malevolent security researchers wait until the final security patch is released then sell the vulnerabilities they know on the deep web or whatever for mad $$$ gains. Vista might have an advantage in being an unpopular version of Windows but still should not be taken seriously.

RIP. You weren't the best (honestly, you might've been the worst - I had more issues with you than ME), but I'm always sad when a Windows version is fully retired. Still not fully over XP not being supported anymore, since it was the last good version.

7 and 10 are fine.

Most business skip every other windows OS. Use XP, skip Vista, use 7, skip 8, use 10.

Once vista got its service packs it was a great OS. The main issue with vista was drivers which was fixed with the first service pack.

Windows 10 is great. Those that didn't upgrade during the free period deserve whatever they get.

Only 7 and 8 got the free upgrade if you're saying Vista people should've upgraded.

Oh there was Vista at some point because every now and again I run across laptops with the Vista sticker, but they've all been updated to 7. We have XP machines still in use because of old, once expensive but no longer supported software and they won't budget for new software. They don't go on the network though so whatever.

You could do a fresh install of win10 and activated it via the M$ insider program.

This doesn't work anymore. Insider builds still require activation. You can choose to ignore it and forfeit personalization options and take reminders every now and then in the day.

I'm talking about during the upgrade period.

Are you people thick, or just not reading?
