Will there be no security updates for Windows Home Server 2011 after 12th April 2016?




For Windows 7 there will be extended support, but will there be one for WHS 2011? According to this tool there is none. Does this mean that there won't be any security updates anymore? So WHS 2011 is finally dead? I thought that because it is a server product it has a greater lifetime than Windows 7 for example.


Answer



Windows Home Server is a home product and unfortunately, it isn't covered by their extended support policy.



If there is no replacement product launched and enough users kick up a fuss, they may extend it - but, you can't count on anything beyond the official support lifecycle page you linked to.
