Important Notice
Windows 10, one of Microsoft’s most widely used operating systems, will reach its official end of support on 14th October 2025. This means that after this date, Microsoft will no longer provide technical support, software updates, or security patches for any edition of Windows 10, leaving systems potentially vulnerable to new threats. The current and final version of Windows 10, known as version 22H2, will continue to receive monthly security updates until the end-of-support date to ensure systems remain protected against the latest security vulnerabilities.
It’s important for users and organisations to be aware of this timeline, as it marks a significant shift in Microsoft’s support strategy. With Windows 10’s lifecycle nearing its end, Microsoft is encouraging users to plan for a transition to Windows 11, which offers enhanced security features, a modernised user interface, and ongoing support for future updates.
What does this mean to you?
For businesses and enterprise environments, the end of support for Windows 10 has broader implications. Organisations relying on Windows 10 will need to assess their IT infrastructure, plan for software compatibility, and allocate budgets for potential upgrades to ensure a smooth transition to a supported operating system.
Capella can assist in this critical phase by offering expertise in planning and delivering a comprehensive upgrade programme. With tailored strategies, project management, and technical support, Capella ensures that organisations experience minimal disruption during the transition, allowing all customers to fully leverage the benefits of the new operating system.
While Windows 10 will remain supported with regular updates until 14th October 2025, users and organisations should begin planning their transition strategies now to ensure continued security and access to the latest features provided by newer versions of Windows. Capella can help you get to the new versions, either upgrading your software to Windows 11 or providing a new device, already on Windows 11.
