AI is already everywhere in the enterprise — and the biggest short-term risk may be that most employees don’t even realize they’re using it.

With the clock counting down to October 14, 2025, millions of PCs face a stark choice: upgrade to Windows 11, pay for a short-term safety net, or keep running an increasingly risky, unsupported Windows 10—while the debate over hardware compatibility, drivers and sustainability suddenly looks...

Microsoft's message is blunt: Windows 10 will stop receiving official security and technical updates on October 14, 2025, and users who delay migration risk an increasing security, compliance, and operational exposure that will grow more dangerous with each month after the cutoff. What began as...

As the calendar races toward October 14, 2025, a striking and inconvenient truth has emerged: a very large portion of the global PC installed base is still running Windows 10, even as Microsoft prepares to stop issuing free security updates and feature patches for that OS. PC makers, market...

Microsoft has set a firm deadline: Windows 10 reaches end of support on October 14, 2025 — but the real story is less about a single sunset date and more about the layered, pragmatic exit Microsoft has built: a one‑year consumer Extended Security Updates (ESU) bridge, continued security...

Microsoft’s official support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025 — and that deadline turns a decade-old, still‑widely used operating system into a growing security liability unless you act now. 10 has been a workhorse for hundreds of millions of PCs, but when Microsoft stops shipping...
