Windows 8.1 won't be getting security updates in 2023-Can Passport still be used to back up files & pictures from a windows 8.1 laptop?

My best guess would be that it will continue to back up. Passport backs up files, etc that are presented to it, it probably query the operating system re: updates or no updates.

Amazon delivered an absolutely brilliant item in mint condition and proper packaging. Works great and I also want to say the pricing during sale was less than market price at CTC! Compatible with windows and Linux, don't have apple so can't say anything about MacOS but it says it's compatible. Light weight, no heating issues of any kind and speeds of over 100mbps are achieved in all the transfers I did! Quickly copied large files very very easily. Thank you Amazon:)
