Microsoft says Windows Server 2016 loses support in January
Microsoft's Windows Server 2016 is set to reach the end of its support period in January, according to a report by BleepingComputer. The report is based on a single outlet, so the timing rests on that account.
What the report says about the timeline
BleepingComputer reports that Microsoft's Windows Server 2016 reaches end of support in January. The report does not give a specific year or day in the material available to WORLDTECH, and the date should be checked against Microsoft's own lifecycle documentation before it is relied upon.
Background on Microsoft and its products
Microsoft is a software and software development company based in Redmond. It was founded in 1975, and its products and services include Microsoft Windows, the operating system family to which Windows Server belongs.
