Windows 10 extended updates program not showing up? Here’s what to do

Here is a 191-word summary of the news article: Windows 10 22H2 support officially ended on October 14th, and the registration for the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program became available a day later. However, many users are not seeing the registration option on their PCs, even if they are ineligible for the Windows 11 upgrade. To register for the Windows 10 ESU program, users need to log in with a Microsoft account, have admin rights, and install the latest updates. If the registration option is still not showing, there is a workaround involving the Command Prompt. The steps include enabling the DiagTrack service, modifying a registry key, and running a specific command. After restarting the PC, the ESU program should now be visible in the Windows Update section. This method was successful in the author's testing, but if users still encounter issues, they are advised to contact Microsoft Support for further assistance. The ESU program is crucial for those still using Windows 10, as it will provide important security updates for an additional year after the official support ends.
