Windows 10 End of Support — FAQ
🗓️ When is Windows 10 end of support?
October 14, 2025. After this date, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates, patches, or technical support for Windows 10.
🖥️ Will my Windows 10 PC stop working?
No, your PC will still work. However, it will no longer receive security updates, which puts your system and data at higher risk of cyberattacks.
🔒 What happens if we don’t upgrade?
Your systems will become increasingly vulnerable to security risks and may fall out of compliance with cybersecurity standards.
🛟 Is there a way to keep Windows 10 safely after 2025?
Microsoft will offer Extended Security Updates (ESU) for a fee, but it’s only a temporary solution and more expensive in the long run.
💻 Can all computers upgrade to Windows 11?
No. Windows 11 has stricter hardware requirements. We recommend a compatibility assessment to determine which devices need replacement or upgrades.
