TLDR;

Microsoft has already announced it will offer extended security updates for Windows 10 to 2028.

ESU is a paid service for enterprise. They didn't even offer ESU for windows 7 home.

Windows 7 pro ESU per device cost $50 for 1 year, $100 for the next year, $200 for the final year.

Windows 7 enterprise was per device 1 year $25, second year $50, and 3rd year $100.

Micro$oft is not going to give win10 ESU away for free and they probably won't supported home edition.

You can however bypass the win11 hardware checks to upgrade unsupported devices.
