About Project 2016 post-support

Microsoft extended support for Project 2016 ended on 14 October 2025. Your perpetual licence continues to work — Microsoft has simply stopped issuing security and feature updates. Organisations requiring continuous updates should consider Project 2019 (perpetual, also post-support as of 2025-10-14), Project Professional 2021 (perpetual, supported through 14 October 2026), or Project Plan 3/5 (subscription).
