Windows 10 End of Life is Soon – What This Means for Your Business

Windows will be reaching its end of life on the 14th of October 2025, but what does this mean for your business?

By this date Windows will be terminating the following features

  • Software updates
  • Technical support
  • Security updates and fixes

This means that while your windows 10 will still be functional, devices still running this version may be at increased risk to viruses, malware, security attacks. Over time, machines may also run slower due to lack of maintenance.

To protect your business and critical information we urge you to transition to Windows 11.

Windows 11 and its benefits for your business

Windows 11 is the newest operating system by Microsoft, with a fresh and modern interface, it is intuitive to navigate, encouraging productivity.

Microsoft will provide support and updates, so you can relax knowing that Microsoft has evolving defense systems to protect your important data.

Windows 11 also gives you access to Copilot. But what is that?

Copilot is an “AI assistant” created by Microsoft, it works similarly to other AI powered models like ChatGPT or Claude. However, Copilot offers a suite of tools that are integrated into Office 365 itself, making it ideal for productivity and business workflows.

Copilot was created to be a companion and can help you write, code, generate images, guide you through the (Microsoft) interface (by using screen aware help on Windows), and even analyse data to create charts for your business.

Windows 11 means less friction between you and your business goals.
