Microsoft has not yet bid farewell to Windows XP

Contrary to initial information, Microsoft will still "care" for Windows XP operating system until July next year.

Previously, Microsoft had stated that it would terminate all support activities for Windows XP since April 8, 2014. However, after reviewing the system and surveying the situation of using Windows XP by users, the company decided to continue "raising" this child until July next year.

One of the main reasons why the company could not say goodbye to Windows XP is the number of users using this operating system is quite large. Meanwhile, the security holes on Windows XP are many. Therefore, Microsoft does not abandon Windows XP nor anyone using this operating system.

According to Microsoft, the company will continue to provide security patches for Windows XP until July next year. During that time, it advised individual and business users to quickly switch to the latest system, Windows 8.1, for the best protection.
