Windows Vista, a short-lived operating system, is coming to the end of its life. It officially reaches End of Life on April 11th, at which point all support for the operating system comes to an end.

Those who wish to continue to receive support from Microsoft and its partners, as well as software vendors, will need to upgrade to a newer edition of Windows, such as:

Windows 7 Service Pack 1 (extended support only)
Windows 8.1
Windows 10

As part of Windows Vista reaching End of Life, Ubisoft has also announced that its Uplay PC client will cease support for the operating system.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
