Windows 11 FAQ

Microsoft has set October 14, 2025, as the official end date for Windows 10 support. Beyond this point, users should not expect to receive any further bug fixes, security patches, time zone updates, or technical assistance. However, for those who still rely on Windows 10 and wish to continue using it instead of upgrading to Windows 11, there will be an option to extend support by paying for an extension.

Continuing to operate an unsupported version of Windows will keep your PC functional, but it will increasingly expose it to security threats and viruses. While your computer will still start and run, Microsoft will no longer provide essential software updates, including crucial security patches, leaving your system at risk.

Windows 10 will reach end of support (EOS) on October 14, 2025. While it may seem like a long runway, ensuring a modernized infrastructure will help keep your organization productive and its data secure. When planning the transition, consider the importance of migrating user files to avoid data loss. Additionally, managing the windows update process in phases can reduce disruption. We encourage organizations to realize the benefits of Windows 11 by upgrading eligible devices to Windows 11 well ahead of the EOS date.
