Windows 10 has been the backbone of businesses and personal computing since its release in July 2015. Even as of February 2025, Windows 10 still holds a significant market share, with over 58% of Windows users relying on it. However, as we approach the end of this year, a major shift is coming—Windows 10 will officially reach its end of life in October 2025.
What does end of life mean?
When software or an operating system reaches its end of life, it means that the developers and suppliers have designated the product as outdated and will no longer support it.
For Windows 10 users, this means:
- No more security updates or patches.
- No new features or improvements.
- Increased vulnerability to security threats, malware, and cyberattacks.
Without ongoing security updates, unpatched vulnerabilities could leave your systems exposed to serious security risks. This makes transitioning away from Windows 10 an essential step to maintaining security and compliance.
