由于 Windows 11 的硬件限制较为严格,且目前 Windows 10 仍占据大量市场份额,微软已更新了其官方支持文档将扩展安全更新截止日期延长到 2027 年 10 月 12 日。
注册方式与定价
普通个人用户(使用家庭版、专业版、专业教育版或工作站版,且系统已升级至 22H2 完整补丁版本)有三种方式可以加入 ESU 计划 :
- 免费开通(推荐): 只要电脑登录了微软账户(Microsoft Account),并在“设置 -> 账户 -> 备份 Windows”中开启“同步记住我的首选项/设置”,即可免费自动获得资格。
- 积分兑换: 可以在微软积分商城使用 1,000 个 Microsoft Rewards 积分免费兑换资格。
- 直接购买: 无法或不愿绑定微软账户(仅使用本地账户)的用户,可选择一次性付费购买,定价为 30 美元,中国大陆地区预计约合 205 元人民币左右。单个授权绑定微软账户后,最多可覆盖同一账户下的 10 台设备 。
如何检查与加入?
- 打开电脑的 “设置” -> “更新和安全” -> “Windows 更新 (Windows Update)” 。
- 如果你的设备完全符合条件,页面上会直接显示 “立即注册” (Enroll Now) 的提示链接,点击并按照屏幕引导登录微软账户并开启云同步即可。
- 注册成功后,此后的 2027 年延长期覆盖会自动生效,你不需要进行任何额外操作 。
需要注意的是,企业及商业版用户(Enterprise)的 ESU 依然是纯付费的逐年翻倍模式(首年约 415 元人民币/台),此次免费延长一年的福利主要仅面向个人和家庭消费级设备 。
和全球用户一样, 该政策同样适用于中国大陆。
Microsoft has quietly extended its free Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for consumers by an additional year, pushing the final support end date out to October 12, 2027. [1, 2]
The program was originally scheduled to expire on October 13, 2026, precisely one year after the official October 2025 end-of-support date for the operating system. This unannounced shift gives personal-use devices a much-needed safety net while transitioning to Windows 11. [1, 2, 3]
Key Updates and Timelines
- New Deadline: Enrolled consumer devices running Windows 10 will now safely receive critical patches through October 12, 2027. [1]
- Automatic Continuation: Users who are already enrolled in the consumer ESU program do not need to take any action; coverage automatically extends to the 2027 date. [1, 2, 3]
- No Feature Updates: This extension only covers critical security patches and malware protection. It does not offer general technical support, bug fixes, or new features. [1, 2, 3]
Consumer Enrollment Options
Eligible home and Pro users can sign up directly via the Windows Update menu using one of three methods outlined on the Microsoft Consumer ESU Page: [1, 2]
- Free (Sync Method): Free of charge if users log into an administrator Microsoft account and enable Windows Backup to sync their PC settings. [1, 2]
- Microsoft Rewards: Free by redeeming 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points. [1, 2]
- Paid License: A one-time purchase of $30 USD (or local currency equivalent) for users who prefer to remain on a local account without syncing data. [1, 2]
Device Prerequisites
To quality for the extension, devices must meet specific baseline criteria: [1, 2, 3]
- Must run Windows 10 version 22H2 (Home, Pro, Pro Education, or Pro for Workstations).
- Must have all preceding cumulative quality updates fully installed.
- The user must sign in using an administrator account to bind the ESU license to their profile. [1, 2]
