Microsoft has officially announced that Windows 10 support will end on October 14, 2025. While the date may still feel distant, the consequences of inaction are immediate and long-lasting. Unsupported systems introduce serious cybersecurity vulnerabilities, operational risks, and compliance challenges—none of which can afford to be ignored.
At TrinWare, we’re already working with businesses to assess their systems and prepare for this transition with as little disruption as possible.
What Happens When Support Ends?
After October 14, 2025, Microsoft will no longer provide:
- Security updates or bug fixes for Windows 10
- Technical support or issue resolution
That means any device still running Windows 10 will be unprotected from new threats and left behind by most modern software developers. This affects your entire technology stack—hardware, security posture, productivity tools, and even compliance certifications.
Why Acting Now Matters
Upgrading your systems isn’t just a technical decision—it’s a strategic one. Here’s why:
1. Strategic Investment
Planning ahead allows you to evaluate system compatibility, align upgrades with your operational goals, and secure hardware before costs increase.
2. Operational Risk
Delaying upgrades means tighter testing timelines, more downtime, and a higher likelihood of workflow disruptions—especially if hardware availability becomes limited.
3. Security Exposure
Outdated systems are prime targets for cybercriminals. Without active support, you’re relying on legacy protection that won’t keep up with today’s threat landscape.
What Are Your Options?
We’ve designed two clear upgrade paths for businesses still running Windows 10:
- Eligible systems can be upgraded to Windows 11 at no cost.
- Ineligible systems will require replacement. TrinWare offers full migration support, including data backup, installation, validation, and deployment.
New business-class desktops and laptops—tested and ready for Windows 11—start at competitive prices, with long-term support options included.
Final Thoughts
Every system you leave unprepared past the deadline introduces risk to your business. The earlier you act, the smoother and more cost-effective the transition will be. Whether you’re looking for guidance on a system audit, help sourcing modern PCs, or full-service upgrade support, TrinWare is here to help you plan with confidence.
Let’s get started today—before the rush.
