Windows 10 is the last Windows version, because it was announced by May 2015 that Microsoft is telling "Why Windows 10 will be the last windows version?" and when Windows 10 Support ends in 2025 will there be no more Microsoft Windows?

The problems is "the last release of Windows" and "support until 2025" seem contrary but is possible.
Microsoft have a long development lead time, 8 was already in development before 7 was even released, they had the touch UI worked out before iPads came out.
Somebody knows what the plan is, we are just going to have to wait.
As soon as the Creator update comes out it will make a lie of the "last release" statement. Of course all it means is "last release so far".

You are correct. The last date for currently announced support will be in 2025 HOWEVER Microsoft can easily decide to extend that date just as they did many times for Windows XP. For all we know now Windows 10 could be supported into the next century.
I'm glad I won't be extended into the next century!
