Dear colleagues,  

Microsoft has announced that support for Windows 10 will officially end on October 14, 2025. This applies to all mainstream editions, including Pro, Enterprise, and Education. After this date, devices running Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates, feature enhancements, or technical support from Microsoft.  

What This Means 

• • Security Risks: Without regular updates, Windows 10 systems will become increasingly vulnerable to security threats, including malware and ransomware. 

• • Software Compatibility: Over time, newer applications and services may no longer be compatible with Windows 10, affecting productivity and access to essential tools. 

• • Microsoft 365 Apps Impact: While Microsoft 365 Apps will continue to function on Windows 10, support will end on October 14, 2025. This means no new features or security updates for these applications on Windows 10. 

Please note that Onboarding devices into Intune will require Windows 11. Kindly reach out to your department’s IT support for guidance on transitioning to supported operating systems and ensuring data integrity during the upgrade process. 

Kind regards,
