Windows 10 Has Officially Retired

⚠️ Windows 10 Has Officially Retired

Here’s What Happens Next — and How HiTech Can Help

🧠 The Reality:
As of October 14, 2025, Microsoft has officially ended support for Windows 10. That means no more security updates, no more patches, and no technical support. Systems still running Windows 10 are now vulnerable to modern cyber threats and software breakdowns that can disrupt your business.

💥 The Fallout:
If your organization is still running Windows 10, here’s what you’re facing today:

Active Exploits: Hackers are already targeting known vulnerabilities that will never be fixed.
Broken Integrations: Modern apps and tools are dropping support, leaving you stuck on outdated versions.
Hardware Headaches: Printers, scanners, and other peripherals may start failing without updated drivers.
Compliance Risks: Using unsupported software could now violate cybersecurity and data protection requirements.
Rising Downtime: As performance and compatibility degrade, productivity will suffer.
