As Microsoft support for Windows 10 ends October 2025, 0patch steps in to ensure your computers remain protected. For those unable to upgrade or purchase Extended Security Updates (ESU), 0patch offers a seamless solution with five additional years of critical security patches until October 2030.
We get it - Windows 11 isn’t for everyone, and for good reason.
Many users and organizations are choosing to stay on Windows 10 because it works, it is stable, and upgrading simply isn’t practical.
Here’s what we often hear:
Looking for a smarter way to keep Windows 10 secure after Microsoft ends support?
0patch offers a lightweight, cost-effective and low-disruption alternative to Microsoft’s Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10 - delivering critical patches without the overhead of full updates or reboots.
Microsoft’s ESU pricing escalates quickly: 54€ ($61) in year one, 108€ ($122) in year two, and 216€ ($244) in year three - 378€ ($427) per device over three years.
With 0patch, the cost is predictable and significantly lower: 105€ ($120) per device over three years for the Enterprise plan, or just 75€ ($85) for the Pro plan. Subscriptions are flexible - you can purchase one year at a time, with no obligation to backpay for previous years.
In contrast, Microsoft’s ESU requires cumulative licensing: if you join in year 2 or 3, you must also pay for all prior years. That means higher upfront costs and less flexibility - just to stay on the same OS.
Windows 10 Home users can purchase Microsoft’s Extended Security Updates (ESU) for 27€ ($30) per one year - a bit more than a 0patch Pro plan, which costs just 25€ ($28) annually.
