What Does “End of Life” Mean?
“End of life” is the date after which an application is no longer supported by the company that makes it. After Windows 7 “end of life,” you can continue to use the operating system, but at your own risk. New viruses and other malware are developed all the time and without the security updates to fight them off, your data and your system are vulnerable to attack.
