We are committed to informing you about important technology developments that may impact your business. We have important information to share regarding the end-of-support dates for various versions of Windows 10 and Windows 11. For an OS, this means no further security updates, which puts our data at risk.
Presently, the following Windows versions are approaching or have already reached their end of support:
➡️Windows 10 End-of-Support Overview:
- Version 22H2: Support ends on October 14, 2025 –This is the only supported version of Windows 10 currently
- Version 21H2: Support ended on June 13, 2023
- Version 21H1: Support ended on December 13, 2022
- Earlier versions (20H2 and below): Support has already ended.
➡️Windows 11 End-of-Support Overview:
- Version 21H2: Support ended on October 10, 2023
- Version 22H2: Support ended on October 8, 2024 – Support for this version ended just a few days ago
- Version 23H2: Support will end on November 11, 2025
- Version 24H2: Support will end on October 13, 2026
This means that these operating system versions will no longer receive critical security updates, patches, or technical support from Microsoft once the respective dates have passed. This change has significant implications for your business, including:
- ⚠ Security Risks: Without future security updates, devices running these unsupported versions are more vulnerable to cyber threats, putting your data and operations at risk.
- ⚠ Compliance Concerns: Depending on your industry, running unsupported software may lead to compliance issues, which could result in fines or other legal ramifications.
- ⚠ Performance and Reliability: As time goes on, the performance and reliability of your devices may degrade, affecting productivity and efficiency.
We strongly recommend taking action to address this situation. Your options include:
- ✅ Upgrade: Consider upgrading to a supported version of Windows, such as Windows 11 Version 23H2 or newer. Upgrading will help ensure your systems remain secure and compliant.
- ✅ Explore Cloud Solutions: Transitioning to cloud-based platforms such as Azure can offer enhanced security, scalability, and simplified management.
