# Support for Windows 7

Do you think that the lack of support for Windows 7 will affect the market to the point of being able to place a support again? 
 Keeping in mind that Windows 7 is a fairly used operating system and many users are here for many years and do not want to use any other operating system.

What will happen from next January 14, 2020 is that Windows 7 will be without any official support, and that companies that want to continue receiving security patches will have to pay an exclusive maintenance to Microsoft that will last three more years. Windows 7 will have died officially, and it will no longer be safe to continue using it. As I do not think it will affect the market, it will simply disappear.

In the opinion,I think it will not affect the market although many users use the current operating system support is fairly complete and trends over time is to migrate to new updates where there are already new media.

### Comment 3

In my opinion, I believe it will not affect the market even though many users use this operating system. The current technical support is quite comprehensive, and the trends over time are to migrate to new updates where the new supports already exist.
