I received a notification from Windows that the service is about to end. Windows now asks me to install a new version, if I want to shut down the laptop, it says update and restart, can I do that or is it dangerous that easily?
Are you still using Windows 7?
You can always update, only the service for Win7 ended on January 14th. This just means that there are no more security updates, so your computer is not protected against new attacks.
No, I have 10. And a few weeks ago I read that the service would also stop there.
That just means that it is now time to update again. Windows 10 is the first Windows with rolling release, i.e. H. There will always be updates according to the current status.

Yes, you can update your outdated Windows 10 (1803 or 1809 or 1903) and update it to the current version. This is not really dangerous, because if it fails, it will be reversed.
No, it's not dangerous. - Carry out the version update when you are finished with your session, because it takes "a few" minutes.
I did it a week ago.
