Just posting this in case anyone needs/wants the info. You Can Stay on Windows 10 for Free If You Do This by Oct. 14
Robbob posted that above a few weeks back. Anyone looking at the cloud option needs to keep in mind the storage limits and costs (see my post #119)

Just to clarify, as I’ve still got a semi-broken W10 laptop which serves as a backup machine , this is really only talking about continuing to be supported/updated, right? It’s not going to suddenly stop working, is it?
Correct. But without security updates the machine will be exposed to any new malware. So one will probably want to disconnect from the internet.
Yes. The wifi adaptor is buggered anyway, the ethernet port also, so it needs a physical USB phone connection to do so. And therefore if I were to need it (like I did earlier this year when my W11 machine was in for repair) I would obviously be very careful abut what I was doing, probably using the phone separately for most stuff and just manually transferring files as needed.
It is done! Just installed the latest windows 10 update. Upon restart I could enroll and join the ESU program for free. I now have security updates for another year. MS, You are the best again.

Hilarious, but … not entirely. My whole career is about providing expertise in sustaining obsolete systems/software 
Being definitely on the other side of the career slope, I even appreciate how lucky I am and I’ve always been without realizing it
Remember! You are not alone.
The good part, if the PC is not new, there’s a good chance everything will work out of the box
