Will Windows Vista Support Last?

Many people have not realized that Windows Vista will be superseded by a newer operating system in the near future. That means that the XP support and Windows Vista support may be at stake. The reason why support has not been cut for Windows XP is because of all of the problems that were associated with Windows Vista. The new operating system that is going to come out really only has one purpose. That is to fix all of the incompatibilities that were associated with Windows Vista. That means the moves from one operating system may be much faster than some people's transition from Windows XP to Windows Vista. What will this mean for Windows Vista support?

Well once possible outcome is the same thing that happened to Windows ME. Windows ME was short lived because so many people complained about too many things that were associated with Windows ME. So instead of spending a lot of time and trying to fix each and every problem, Microsoft decided to build an entirely new operating system to replace Windows ME. Not long after support for Windows ME was discontinued. Windows Vista has been found in a similar situation. There are so many things that are wrong with Windows Vista that it may also put Windows Vista support in jeopardy. Even though so many people have Windows Vista already installed in their desktops and laptop it will not change anything. Windows ME was discontinued almost right after its prime which stunned a lot of people.

If the new operating system that is suppose to replace Windows Vista is successful in getting rid of most of the incompatibilities that are associated with Windows Vista then you will problem not see Windows Vista support last version long. What does that mean for you if you are using Windows Vista?

If there is no longer any Windows Vista support then Microsoft will stop making updates and fixes for Windows Vista. Even if there is some new security threat you will probably not protect as well if you were using the new operating system that is supposed to be called Windows 7. This is the same thing that happened to Windows ME support. Windows Vista support could just suddenly stop and almost force people to upgrade to the new Windows 7 or any other operating systems that may be introduced in the near future to accompany Windows 7.
