Get ready for a big change if you’re still using Windows 10 – the clock is ticking on free support, with the cutoff date set for October. This means that without updates, your PC could be more vulnerable to cyber threats and bugs.
Microsoft is urging users to make the switch to Windows 11 as soon as possible. Margaret Farmer from Microsoft emphasized the importance of upgrading, stating, “Your computer will still work, but with security threats on the rise, it is imperative you upgrade immediately.”
To see if your device is compatible with Windows 11 and eligible for a free upgrade, now is the time to check. If not, you have a few options – you can purchase a new Windows 11-powered machine, enroll in the Windows 10 Extended Security Updates (ESU) Programme for a fee, or simply do nothing and risk potential attacks and bugs.
For those considering moving to Windows 11, detailed instructions on how to upgrade your Windows 10 PC are available. Don’t wait until it’s too late – make the switch today!
