Microsoft’s support clock for Windows 10 has a hard stop: after October 14, 2025, Microsoft will no longer issue routine security or feature updates for Windows 10, and millions of PCs will face a growing security and compatibility risk unless owners act — by upgrading to Windows 11, enrolling...

Microsoft’s 12‑month reprieve for Windows 10 users has changed the migration math — and not in Microsoft’s favor; what looked like a steady march to Windows 11 has stalled, leaving most Windows users once again facing an urgent upgrade decision with security, cost, and hardware implications that...
Microsoft has issued an explicit, high‑urgency notice to Windows 10 users: free mainstream support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025, and the company is pushing a narrow set of pathways — upgrade to Windows 11, enroll in a time‑limited Extended Security Updates (ESU) program, or accept...

Windows 10’s official countdown has turned a long-running conversation into a practical decision many readers face today: do you need a new laptop, or can your existing machine survive the transition with a little effort? The short answer from recent coverage and retail testing is nuanced...
Microsoft’s latest move to blunt the impact of laptop failures and cyber incidents is pragmatic, bluntly honest, and engineered to sell a comfort-level businesses didn’t know they needed: a short-term, managed Cloud PC that employees can be switched onto when their physical machines fail, are...
Millions of German PCs face a hard deadline: on October 14, 2025, Microsoft will end mainstream support for Windows 10, stopping free security updates and feature patches for Home, Pro, Enterprise, Education and IoT LTSB editions — a shift that leaves a substantial portion of Germany’s installed...
