The above is from this Microsoft web page written all the way back in January of this year. I am not aware of one instance where Microsoft has stated anything to the contrary since that time.

Why is Gordon Kelly saying otherwise? I cannot believe he is so dense or illiterate, so I can only conclude he is trying to stir up controversy where none exists by purposely misleading. Why? He seems to have an agenda but I don't know what it is. Maybe he is simply starved for attention and wants page clicks? It's a cheap trick, though, and really shoddy journalism.

There is no limit to how long Windows 10 updates will be available to those who install it with a valid license. Once you have it on a specific machine, that machine will be eligible for free updates indefinitely.
