Windows 10 ends support in October 2025: what it means for your business

On October 14, 2025, Windows 10 stops getting security updates, and the clock is already ticking.

Microsoft has set the end of support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. After that date, Windows 10 PCs stop receiving security updates, which over time makes them an increasingly easy target.

What it means for you

Your computers will still turn on, but every month past the deadline they become riskier to use, especially for any organization that handles sensitive data or has compliance obligations. Insurers and auditors increasingly frown on unsupported systems too.

Your options

  • Upgrade to Windows 11 on hardware that supports it, much of it does
  • Replace machines too old to qualify (this is a good moment to budget for it)
  • Plan now, not in October, when everyone else is scrambling and supply gets tight

We are helping clients inventory their machines and map out the most cost-effective path. The earlier you start, the smoother, and cheaper, it goes. Talk to us about a plan.
