Microsoft pledges six years of driver and firmware support for Surface Laptop Ultra
Windows Central reports that Microsoft has pledged six years of driver and firmware updates for Surface Laptop Ultra, ending on October 16, 2032. Users must run a Windows 11 version from the past 30 months to keep receiving these updates. The end of driver and firmware support does not make the laptop unusable; it can still receive Windows 11 system updates.
