Users of the "XP mode" feature in Windows 7 may be at risk of security attacks after April 8.4, 2014
According to Neowin on January 15, on 8.4.2014, Microsoft will stop all activities supporting the operating system over 10 years old, namely Windows XP . And then, the question is whether the " XP mode " feature in Windows 7 is still safe to use.
ZDNet cited Microsoft's statement that after April 8.4, Microsoft will not plan to release security patches for the " XP mode " feature in Windows 7.
This means that after April 8.4, Windows 7 users who continue to use the " XP mode " feature may face security risks.
