There is absolutely no reason for TurboTax to drop support for Windows 10 on TurboTax 2025! TurboTax says it is because Windows 10 will be vulnerable to security issues after October 2025. However, Microsoft is offering Extended Security Updates (ESU) through most of October 2026 for free! This means that there will not be any more security risks than in the past on Windows 10 until after all 2025 tax returns are due, including with the 6-month extension.
IMHO, this is just BS excuse to try and force more people onto Windows 11 and to force more people to buy new computers so that they can support Windows 11! It seems like Microsoft and TurboTax are in cahoots here to force more revenue to Microsoft and to make it easier for TurboTax b eliminating one platform from their support requirements!
