“Microsoft 365 Apps will no longer be supported after October 14, 2025, on Windows 10 devices,” the company confirmed. “To use Microsoft 365 Applications on your device, you will need to upgrade to Windows 11.”

The apps will still work after Oct. 14, but users should be prepared for 'performance and reliability issues over time,' Microsoft says.

Microsoft will stop supporting Office apps on Windows 10 this year. Also it really wants you to upgrade to Windows 11. According to a Microsoft blog post, the company will end support for Microsoft 365 apps on Windows 10 on Oct.

Microsoft is officially calling it quits on Windows 10 in 2025, and it's ending support for Office apps on the OS — but not entirely.

A blog post claiming that the free upgrade to Windows 11 was for a "limited time only" appears to have been a mistake.
