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.

`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.
