> Windows 7 goes end of life in 2 weeks.

No it doesn't, for two reasons.

Chromium Edge will support windows 7, ironically the release date it's just one day after Win7 supposedly goes eol. and of course Windows 7 ESU support will end in 2023.

And they released a patch for CVE-2019-0708 on Windows 2000, that doesn't mean Windows 2000 isn't EoL as of 2019 it means a one off decision was made.

ESU is for businesses not end users and requires professional or higher.
