Microsoft has provided support for Windows XP for the past 12 years. But now the time has come for us, along with our hardware and software partners, to invest our resources toward supporting more recent technologies so that we can continue to deliver great new experiences.
微软为Windows XP系统提供服务已有12载,对于我们以及我们的硬件、软件合伙商来说,是时候将资源投入更新的科技产品,如此我们也能为用户提供更好的体验。
As a result, after April 8, 2014, technical assistance for Windows XP will no longer be available, including automatic updates that help protect your PC. Microsoft will also stop providing Microsoft Security Essentials for download on Windows XP on this date.
这样一来,我们将从2014年4月8日起停止对Windows XP系统的技术支持,包括自动进行系统更新等保护个人电脑的程序。届时微软还将停止提供Windows XP 系统微软免费杀毒软件的下载。
If you continue to use Windows XP after support ends, your computer will still work but it might become more vulnerable to security risks and viruses. Also, as more software and hardware manufacturers continue to optimize for more recent versions of Windows, you can expect to encounter greater numbers of apps and devices that do not work with Windows XP.
如果你在停止服务后继续使用Windows XP系统,你的电脑仍能运行,但安全风险及病毒危害也将更大。同时,由于硬件及软件商也在不断地更新优化他们的产品以配套较新版本的Windows系统,你也会遇到更多与Windows XP系统不兼容的应用及设备。
