Still on Windows 10? It’s time to act.

What happens if one of your most important business tools suddenly becomes unsafe?

That’s the risk many businesses face right now with Windows 10.

Why?

Because support for Windows 10 ends October 14, 2025. That’s just weeks away. And once it ends, it’s over.

No more security updates. No more bug fixes. No help from Microsoft if something breaks.

Sure, you can keep using Windows 10. But without updates, your systems will be wide open to cybercriminals.

The scary part?

Many business owners don’t even realize this is happening. One study found:

• 18% had no idea support was ending.

• 14% knew, but hadn’t started planning.

That’s a lot of businesses at serious risk of downtime, data loss, or worse.

Can’t we just pay for extra support?

Microsoft does offer something called Extended Security Updates (ESUs). But:

• They aren’t free.

• Prices go up every year.

• It’s only a short-term fix.

The smarter move?

Upgrade to Windows 11 now—before the deadline.

Windows 11 isn’t just an update. It’s faster, safer, and built for the way modern businesses work. It includes:

• Stronger security tools

• Better performance

• Smoother integration with Teams, OneDrive, and Copilot

But here’s the catch: not every computer running Windows 10 can run Windows 11. Some businesses will need new hardware too.

The bottom line:

October 14 is coming fast. The longer you wait, the more expensive and stressful the upgrade will be.

If you haven’t started planning yet, now’s the time. Ask your IT partner: “Are we ready for Windows 10 end of life?”

If the answer isn’t a confident YES, you need a plan. And you need it now.
