What happens to Windows 7 on October 31, 2014?

Summary: Microsoft is approaching the next cut-off date in Windows 7's lifecycle next month. Here's what is and isn't happening after October 31, 2014.

The October 31, 2014 cut-off date has no implications for end of support or downgrade rights for Windows 7.

Mainstream (free, Microsoft-provided) support for Windows 7 with Service Pack 1 installed isn't expiring until January 13, 2015. Microsoft will continue to provide security fixes for Windows 7 for free until the end of extended support, which is January 14, 2020 -- unless Microsoft ends up extending that support date, as it did with Windows XP.

Hm, time for an updated expression in the English language: "Bent as a nine bob note £700 iPhone" ?  :hmm:
