Microsoft Drops Office 2021 Support: 0patch Offers Alternative

Microsoft is set to end support for Office 2021 in a few months. This move affects users who are not subscribed to Microsoft 365, as they will no longer receive security updates or patches. To stay covered officially, users can upgrade to a newer version of Office or subscribe to Microsoft 365.

However, an alternative solution has been offered by Acros Security's 0patch service. For those who want to continue using Office 2021 without the official support, 0patch will provide three more years of security updates and patches at a price.

The announcement was spotted by Neowin, which revealed that Acros Security is launching a new product for its 0patch service. This move may appeal to users who are not ready or willing to upgrade to the latest version of Office.
