But without updates, security goes to shit. Doesn't it?

Degenerate

I do occasional scans with third party programs and so far I haven't become a walking botnet so I'm not sure what this "security" everyone keeps blaring on about even means. Do some people really think that the internet is a warfield of viruses and vulnerability attacks?

What about the firewall?

I don't know. Do routers have firewalls these days?

Probably, but it's better to have one in the OS as well, I imagine.

10 LTSC is the same shit

It's not just about security, new software like browsers won't work on 7 and it will be as useless as XP

It's how exploits happen past your home firewall and with AV.

>So what now?
Use Windows 8.1 with a start menu replacer, same thing as Windows 7.

But what about all the stuff I have installed?
Like Darklands, and my btc wallet?

Just do a straight "upgrade" to Windows 8.1, it'll all work just fine.

I thought Windows 8 was like Windows 10 with an even worse interface, why is it like Windows 7 all of the sudden?

Five years from now maaayyybe. Software is only even starting to not support XP anymore, and XP has lost Microsoft support ages ago. How long third party software supports an OS is dictated by its marketshare, not by the OS manufacturer.

best post ITT tbqfh

So do I have to stop using Windows 7?

8/8.1 is better than normal 10 but LTSC 10 is better than all of them

>Darklands

No. For your average joe, literally nothing changes. Shit dosn't magically break when support ends. This shit only really effects business (PCI compliance, etc)

8.1 your shit up

Yes.

Installed it around 2010.

Its just DOSBox mate, it will work from XP to Win10
Also, Darklands is a fine ass game

But will it carry over if I update my OS?
And what about my shitty btc wallet?

If you upgrade then yes, all applications will still be in place
If you fresh install then you'll need to reinstall everything or restore from backups (from an external hard drive, etc)
