Microsoft will stop supporting Office apps on Windows 10 this year. Also it really wants you to upgrade to Windows 11. According to a Microsoft blog post, the company will end support for Microsoft 365 apps on Windows 10 on Oct.

As the push toward Windows 11 continues, Microsoft confirms that Windows 10 users will lose support for apps including Word, Excel, and Outlook.

“Microsoft 365 Apps will no longer be supported after October 14, 2025, on Windows 10 devices,” the company confirmed. “To use Microsoft 365 Applications on your device, you will need to upgrade to Windows 11.”

Microsoft is officially calling it quits on Windows 10 in 2025, and it's taking Microsoft 365 apps along with it — kind of.

Microsoft has confirmed that it will stop supporting Microsoft Office apps on Windows 10 devices after the operating system’s end of support on October 14, 2025. To continue using Microsoft 365 apps without issues, users will need to upgrade to Windows 11, the company announced on Tuesday.

Designed to replace the current Mail and Calendar apps, the new Outlook can only be removed after it's been installed.

Microsoft announced last year that it would be retiring the Windows Mail & Calendar apps in favor of the new Outlook at the end of 2024. As of January 1, these apps are no longer functional and will refuse to send or receive any more emails.

For several months now, Microsoft has been urging Windows users to switch over to the new Outlook app, with classic Outlook recently getting an official “death date”. Many aren’t happy about this, holding off on jumping ship as long as they can — but the clock is ticking down.
