Oct 11, 2026 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: xda-developers.com
  • Following the October 14, 2025 retirement, Microsoft is offering another year of security updates.

  • The extension keeps Windows 10 secure until October 2027 and remains available even without prior ESU enrollment.

  • It provides security updates only, without new features like those included in some Windows 11 updates.

  • Memory and storage prices surged in 2026, while Windows 11 requires TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot.
    • I wouldn't be surprised if Microsoft extended Windows 10 to 2028, as it planned for enterprise systems with paid ESU plans.
    — Abhishek, XDA author, expressing a personal expectation about Windows 10's extension and ESU plans.

Key FactsUSB-Based Backdoor Breaches BitLocker Encryption
May 14, 2026 · Reading time: ~45 sec.
Summary created with AI assistance · Source: tomshardware.com
  • The YellowKey zero-day exploit allows complete access to BitLocker-encrypted drives by copying files to a USB stick and rebooting into recovery mode.

  • The exploit’s files vanish from the USB after use, suggesting a concealed backdoor that raises serious security and political concerns.

  • YellowKey affects Windows Server 2022 and 2025 but not Windows 10, and it can bypass TPM-and-PIN configurations.

  • Another exploit, GreenPlasma, enables local privilege escalation to system-level access, posing significant risks especially to server systems.
    • could have made some insane cash selling this, but no amount of money will stand between me and my determination against Microsoft.
    — Chaotic Eclipse (Nightmare-Eclipse) – regarding the YellowKey zero-day exploit and their stance against Microsoft.
