Windows 7 RTM will be discontinued support on April 9
This means that the RTM version of the popular Windows 7 operating system will not receive any further updates.
According to PCWorld technology news site , Microsoft recently warned users that the first version of Windows 7 (Windows 7 RTM - Release to Manufacturing) will be discontinued in April. Besides the introduction of Windows 8, the fact that Windows 7 RTM is more than 3 years old is one of the reasons why this version was stopped by Microsoft.
More specifically, Microsoft will stop services for Windows 7 RTM on April 9. Microsoft's policy is to stop supporting the original product 24 months after the first "service pack" was released, and SP1 of Windows 7 was released at the end of February 2011. After April 9, Windows 7 Service Pack 1 will be the only version left of Windows 7 officially supported.
Service Pack 1 is the only SP version released by Microsoft. This continues the trend of reducing the number of Microsoft SPs: XP has 3 SP versions, while Vista only has 2.
However, Microsoft will still support Windows 7 with patches not related to bugs and security-related patches until January 13, 2015 and will continue to support security patches until. January 14, 2020. However, after April 9, Windows 7 (RTM) will no longer receive other updates.
Reportedly, Windows 7 is a successful product of Microsoft and is considered a worthy replacement for Windows XP (compared to Windows Vista - a failed product). Based on a Net Applications report, nearly one-half (48.5%) of the world's PCs run Windows 7, as of January.
