I will predict that Win 10 will soon be receiving a flood of patches and service packs. The difference is along with these vulnerabilities, users must also contend with the slew of corporate spyware (malware in my view), that has been packed into Win 10, and yes, I'm also aware MS is desperately trying to backport these 'features' into Win 7. I am aware of the exploits for Win 7, just as I'm aware of those for Win 10: Vulnerable (like beauty) is in the eye of the beholder. Maybe Win 7 will change my mind, but I doubt it. So when it comes to EOL/EOS, you will find me as skeptical as Amazing Randi and his posse is toward ghosties. To date I have gotten the sum total of four PUPs, which were quickly found and euthanized (I haul the PC to the local computer shop once a year for full malware scan, cleaning, and whatever else). I am still waiting for even one of the deluge of trojans, viruses, rootkits, keyloggers, etc., threatened by M$ and their army of parrots for many years now.
Irregardless of when the EOL/EOS occurred, my XP Pro has remained bulletproof for the entire 3+ years I have used it. My XP Pro supposedly went EOL/EOS sometime in 2014 as I recall, yet I was actually being bombarded with a slew of KB updates as of early last year, when I finally shut the backdoor to M$.but one of their countless other lies.
