Microsoft provides Extended Security Updates (ESU) through several channels, such as CommercialAzureESU, CommercialW365ESU, CommercialKeybasedESU, and ConsumerESU.

Microsoft provides Extended Security Updates (ESU) through several channels, such as CommercialAzureESU, CommercialW365ESU, **CommercialKeybasedESU**, and **ConsumerESU**.
|

|

TSforge activates the [Commercial Key-based ESU](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/whats-new/enable-extended-security-updates#get-the-product-keys-for-activating-extended-security-update-esu-licenses), which is intended for use by administrators in business environments.
|
||||
|
||||
The Windows Update page in Settings does not display the status of Commercial Key-based ESU activations and may still prompt you to enroll in Consumer ESU. This behavior is normal and can safely be ignored.
|
||||
The Windows Update page in Settings is currently showing the incorrect status below to **all CommercialKeybasedESU users**.

|

|

**It’s just a visual bug**, and it even appears on Windows 10 LTSC 2021. **Your ESU is activated correctly**. Hopefully, Microsoft will fix it in the upcoming updates.

According to the official [Microsoft documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/whats-new/enable-extended-security-updates#install-and-activate-the-esu-key), you can verify the status of a Commercial Key-based ESU activation by running the following command in Command Prompt:
|

|

`cscript C:\Windows\System32\slmgr.vbs /dlv`
|

|
||||
Alternatively, you can confirm the key-based ESU status with the following command:
|
||||
|
||||
`ClipESU.exe`
|
||||
|
||||
#### What does it mean when the script says, "Windows Update can receive 1-3 years of ESU. 4-6 years ESU is not officially supported, but it might be useful"?
|
||||
|
||||
Microsoft officially announced that Extended Security Updates (ESU) would be available for only 3 years. However, ESU licenses actually exist for up to 6 years.
