Mark your calendars - Microsoft has announced that Windows 10 will officially retire on October 14, 2025. This means that after this date, the operating system will no longer receive crucial security updates, patches, or official support.
Once Windows 10 reaches its end-of-life, users will face significant challenges, including:
Microsoft will stop providing feature and security updates, making devices vulnerable to emerging threats.
Without ongoing security patches, devices will be at greater risk of cyberattacks, malware, and data breaches.
Microsoft will no longer offer technical assistance for Windows 10 users, leaving businesses and individuals without direct support.
Windows 11 requires modern hardware, so now’s the perfect time to consider a device refresh.
Upgrading with Highgate to Windows 11 ensures you get the best in hybrid flexibility, top-tier security, and future-ready technology. While new AI-enabled PCs also work seamlessly with Windows 11 because they utilise advanced machine learning algorithms to intelligently manage system resources, predict user needs, and automate routine tasks.
Not sure if your devices are up to the task? Let Highgate assess your hardware and help you find the right upgrade solution for your business.
Windows 10 remains the most widely used desktop operating system, commanding approximately 60% of the market share. This widespread reliance on Windows 10 highlights the urgency for users to plan their transition to Windows 11 promptly to avoid the challenges the industry has faced in the past.
As the end-of-support date approaches, the demand for new hardware compatible with Windows 11 is expected to surge.
With a significant number of users still on Windows 10, there could be a rush to upgrade which will push support services.
