The Clock Is Running Out
Microsoft is pulling the plug on Windows 10 support next year. That means no more updates, no more security patches, and no more safety net for businesses that stay on outdated machines.
This September, ITGuys is making one last push to get every supported customer upgraded to Windows 11 before the deadline.
Why We Do It
Unsupported systems are ticking time bombs. Once Windows 10 is retired, businesses that fail to upgrade will face:
- No security patches for new vulnerabilities.
- Growing incompatibility with software and cloud apps.
- Higher risk of downtime from unsupported hardware.
- Increased costs as older systems become harder to maintain.
The risks multiply fast. The solution is simple: upgrade now, while there is still time.
How It Works
Here is what ITGuys is doing this September:
- Reviewing every supported machine still running Windows 10.
- Confirming hardware readiness for Windows 11.
- Recommending replacements for machines that cannot upgrade.
- Scheduling upgrades at times that minimize customer disruption.
We are also keeping an eye on hardware pricing. Tariff increases are expected soon, so upgrading early avoids higher costs down the line.
What Customers See
For customers, the process is straightforward:
- You will be notified if any of your machines still need to move to Windows 11.
- ITGuys will schedule and perform the upgrade.
- If replacement hardware is required, you will receive recommendations and options.
The result is a smooth transition with minimal downtime.
The Results So Far
By September, most supported customers are already on Windows 11 or scheduled for upgrades. For the few still holding out, this is the last chance to avoid running unsupported systems into next year.
Why It Matters for You
Upgrading to Windows 11 is not just about new features. It is about:
- Security: Staying protected with ongoing patches and updates.
- Compatibility: Ensuring modern apps and cloud services continue to work.
- Performance: Newer systems run faster and smoother.
- Savings: Avoiding last-minute rush orders and tariff-driven price hikes.
Looking Ahead
The Windows 10 sunset is approaching fast. ITGuys will continue guiding customers through the upgrade process, but the window is closing. By acting now, you stay ahead of the deadline and avoid the chaos of waiting too long.
