Windows 10 builds 19045.6937 and 19044.6937 (KB5075912) are now rolling out as part of the February 2026 Security Update through the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program for versions 22H2 and 21H2. This is a small update that introduces some fixes regarding fonts, File Explorer, and graphics.

In this update, the company continues expanding Secure Boot certificate updates. In addition, this release includes the changes for the January 2026 Security Update and the other Out-of-band (OOB) updates, including update KB5077796 and KB5078129.

These are the fixes and improvements rolling out this January for Windows 10:

Fonts: Updated Chinese fonts to meet GB18030‑2022A compliance requirements.
OS Security: Fixed an issue where Secure Launch‑capable PCs with Virtual Secure Mode (VSM) enabled would restart instead of shutting down or entering hibernation after installing security updates released on or after January 13, 2026.
Folders: Fixed an issue where File Explorer ignored the value in desktop.ini, preventing custom folder names from appearing; custom names now display correctly.
Graphics: Fixed a stability issue affecting certain GPU configurations.
Secure Boot: Windows quality updates now include expanded targeting data to identify device readiness for new Secure Boot certificates. Devices receive the certificates only after showing sufficient successful update signals to ensure a safe, phased rollout.

Windows 10 end of support

Support for Windows 10 ended on November 14, 2025, meaning the company is no longer providing security updates, bug fixes, features, or technical support. To continue receiving critical security updates (only), you must enroll your computer in the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program.

Also, remember that this lack of updates will leave your system vulnerable to security threats and may decrease its performance.

Furthermore, since the software giant no longer provides updates, you should upgrade to Windows 11 or another operating system, such as Linux Mint, or plan to purchase a new device.

According to the company, all versions of Windows 10 have already reached the end of support, including:

Version 1507 (RTM)
Windows 10 2015 LTSB
Version 1511
Version 1607
Version 1703
Version 1709
Version 1803
Version 1809
Version 1903
Version 1909
Version 2004
Version 20H2
Version 21H1
Version 22H2

If you want to continue using Windows 10, Microsoft now offers Extended Security Updates (ESU). This service was originally reserved for organizations needing to run older operating systems beyond the official support period, but it is now also offered to regular consumers.
