@ -44,12 +44,16 @@ curl drops support for the winbuild build method after September 2025.
We recommend migrating to CMake. See the migration guide in
`docs/INSTALL-CMAKE.md`.
## Windows CE
## VS2008
Windows CE "mainstream support" ended on October 9, 2018, and "Extended
Support" ended on October 10, 2023.
curl drops support for getting built with Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 in

intend to remove support for that Operating System in this time frame as well.
Bumping the minimum to VS2010. VS2008 is a pain to support.
