Jessop and fellow analyst Ben Caddy released a report in December that estimated about a fifth of the world\u2019s Windows 10 devices \u2014 some 240 million PCs \u2014 will become e-waste by the time Microsoft ends support for Windows 10.<\/p>\n<p>Most of these 240 million PCs, if in good condition, could at least be recycled. However, the report noted that their incompatibility with the latest supported version of Windows massively reduces their value for refurbishing and reselling. Many of the 240 million PCs will still be usable for years to come, but demand for devices no longer supported by Microsoft will be minimal \u2014 even companies with the tightest of IT budgets will be deterred by the lack of free and continued security updates, it added.<\/p>\n<p>The scale of the e-waste produced by the end of support for Windows 10 highlights the role of device vendors and OS vendors alike in maximizing products\u2019 usable lifespans, the Canalys report noted. To facilitate the circular economy, it added, OEMs must embed durability, repairability and recyclability into the design of their devices \u2014 and OS vendors must ensure these devices are usable and secure for as long as possible.<\/p>\n<p>Source: <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.technewsworld.com\/story\/windows-10-end-of-life-could-flood-landfills-with-e-waste-179242.html\">Tech News World<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p>The post <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\/environmental-news-en\/4-542\/\">Windows 10 End of Life Could Flood Landfills With E-Waste<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/vastuullisuusuutiset.fi\/fi\">Vastuullisuusuutiset.fi<\/a>.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[22],"tags":[575,4065,14988],"class_list":["post-131659","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news","tag-environmental-news-en","tag-ewaste","tag-windows-10"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131659","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=131659"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/131659\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=131659"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=131659"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/tietopankki.crnet.fi\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=131659"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
