Last month, we reported that the end of Microsoft Support Diagnostic Tool (MSDT) was getting closer, as an MSDT retirement banner was spotted inside a Windows 11 Dev Channel build. We speculated that the reason behind the change was to make upcoming Windows versions, like next gen Windows 11 and Windows 12, more secure.


Microsoft has now formally made the announcement. Although we already knew that MSDT would be retired in 2025, thanks to that retirement banner we talked about before, Microsoft has now provided more details regarding the matter. The company has explained that it will be a gradual phase out process. Explaining what MSDT and the legacy Windows troubleshooters do, the Redmond giant has provided a timeline for the retirement phase out process, which starts this year and lasts till 2025.
