On October 14, 2025, Microsoft will officially end support for Windows 10. Without security updates, your data and system stability will be at real risk. Find out why it’s worth planning your migration to Windows 11 today and how to prepare for the transition.

Although your computer will continue to run, the lack of security updates will make it vulnerable to hacker attacks and other threats. For businesses and individual users alike, this means taking swift action is essential to protect data and ensure business continuity.

What does the end of technical support for Windows 10 mean?

Technical support is much more than just access to help or quick fixes for bugs. It primarily involves comprehensive care for system security and stability, including regular security updates, functional improvements, and the elimination of potential vulnerabilities that cybercriminals could exploit. This ensures users can work in a secure environment, minimizing the risk of data loss or disruptions in daily operations.

After October 14, 2025, Microsoft will end support for Windows 10, which means:

• No more security patches or system updates will be released—these are essential for protecting against modern threats such as viruses, ransomware, and sophisticated hacking attacks.

• Users will lose access to official technical support from Microsoft, making it harder to resolve issues and increasing the risk of downtime.

• The system will become much more vulnerable to cyberattacks, as hackers often exploit known software vulnerabilities that are no longer patched.

No security updates means leaving the door open for cybercriminals. Continuing to use an unsupported system is a serious risk. Now is the time to plan your migration to newer, supported solutions to protect your data and ensure your business runs without disruption.

Windows 11 step by step – how to prepare for the transition

Step 1: check hardware requirements
Make sure your existing computers meet the minimum system requirements for Windows 11, including:

• Intel Core 8th generation processor or newer

• At least 4 GB of RAM

• Minimum 64 GB of free disk space

• TPM 2.0 module (Trusted Platform Module)

Step 2: Back up your data
Before migrating, secure important files and documents to avoid data loss during the upgrade process.

Step 3: Test software and hardware compatibility
Verify that the applications used in your organization run properly on Windows 11 and check for any issues with drivers or peripherals.

Step 4: Prepare a migration plan
Define a clear implementation schedule, the scope of devices to be updated, and assign responsibilities for each stage of the process.

Step 5: Train employees
Provide brief training sessions or educational materials to help users familiarize themselves with the new features and interface.

Step 6: Deploy the update
Begin installing Windows 11 on selected devices in accordance with the prepared migration plan.

Step 7: Monitor performance and address issues
After migration, monitor system stability and efficiency, and respond quickly to any technical challenges that may arise.
