Key Takeaways November 2025 marks the first month of the Windows 10 Extended Security Updates program. If you are planning to run Windows 10 for an extended period, ensure you have upgraded to Windows 10 version 22H2. The Windows OS update is the highest priority this month as it resolves a known exploited CVE (CVE-2025-62215). Third-party updates from Adobe and Mozilla have already been released and an update for Google Chrome is expected soon, which means Edge will also need an update. November Patch Tuesday is the first Patch Tuesday after the EoL of Windows 10.
