Mainstream support for Windows XP Ends

Microsoft’s free product support for paid users of all versions of Windows XP officially ended as of April 14. What this means is that Microsoft will no longer give complementary product support to XP users.

This doesn’t mean the end of the free security updates. There will still be Hotfixes but no new Service Packs.

Time to move on.
