Hi question ,
I am currently using Win10 IoT Enterprise 1809. I see there is end of life in 2029. Will there an (paid) extended security update for this (ESU) and what year will it go out to, 2032?

    Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2019, which is version 1809/build 17763, is supported through January 9, 2029.

    The available ESU information in the provided Microsoft lifecycle documentation lists Windows 10 ESU for qualifying editions in commercial use, with ESU coverage available for up to three years after October 14, 2025, ending in 2028. That ESU listing does not state an additional ESU program for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2019 beyond its own lifecycle.

    Based on the provided lifecycle and release-history information:

    • Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2019 (1809) has an end of servicing date of January 9, 2029.
    • No separate paid ESU period extending it to 2032 is stated here.
    • 2032 is mentioned in the provided Q&A context for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021, not for LTSC 2019.

    Hello Eric,

    Thank you for posting question on Microsoft Windows Forum!

    Based on your query of whether there will be an (paid) extended security update for this (ESU) and what year will it go out to, 2032. The straightforward answer is NO. Microsoft has not announced an Extended Security Update (ESU) program for Windows 10 IoT Enterprise 2019 LTSC (Version 1809) beyond its existing end-of-life date of January 9, 2029.

    If your hardware target requires support out to 2032, it is recommended to perform an in-place upgrade or migration to Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021 (or a newer LTSC release, such as Windows 11 IoT Enterprise LTSC) before your 1809 instances reach January 2029.

    You can consult the following articles for further reference.

    Hope the above information is helpful! If it is. Free feel to hit "Accepted" for benefitting others in community having the same query too.
