A component receives the same support as its parent product or platform. When a parent product or platform is in Mainstream, or Extended Support, so is the component. When a parent product or platform reaches the end of support, so does the component.
For example: If a component is licensed for Microsoft Windows, support ends for the component on the same date that support ends for Windows.
Note
Sometimes a component will receive security updates or feature enhancements that are independent of its parent product. We encourage customers to install component updates as they become available.
