Microsoft has provided support for Windows XP for the past 11
years. But now the time has come for us, along with our hardware and software
partners, to invest our resources toward supporting more recent technologies so
that we can continue to deliver great new experiences.
As a result, after April 8, 2014, technical assistance for
Windows XP will no longer be available, including automatic updates that help
protect your PC. Microsoft will also stop providing Microsoft Security Essentials for
download on Windows XP on this date.
If you continue to use Windows XP after support ends, your
computer will still work but it might become more vulnerable to security risks
and viruses. Also, as more software and hardware manufacturers continue to
optimize for more recent versions of Windows, you can expect to encounter
greater numbers of apps and devices that do not work with Windows XP.
