Microsoft Corp's plan to end support for the Windows 10 operating system could result in about 240 million personal computers (PCs) being disposed of, potentially adding to landfill waste, as reported by Reuters.
Microsoft aims to discontinue support for Windows 10 by October 2025.
The electronic waste from these PCs could weigh an estimated 480 million kilograms, equivalent to 320,000 cars.
Canalys Research warned that while many PCs could remain functional for years post the end of OS support, demand for devices without security updates could be low.
Microsoft aims to discontinue support for Windows 10 by October 2025, with plans to provide security updates until October 2028 for an undisclosed annual price. The move could potentially increase the number of older PCs heading to scrap, impacting landfill waste.
