Microsoft offers a long-term support version of Windows called LTSC that's stripped down, only receives security updates, and is supported for 10 years from its release.

It's only officially available to business clients, but with a little yar har fiddeldy dee, you too can experience extended support!

I figured, but I didn't read anything about that when I was on the massgrave site the other day, so that is why I just thought all older Windows versions are gone for good.

It will come in handy for my Windows 10 Pro version that I have installed in my Mac though.
