Windows 7 End of Life upgrade to Windows 10

As you may be aware Microsoft is discontinuing support for the Windows 7 operating system as of the 14 of January 2020, which is coming up very soon.

What does this mean?
 
If you continue to use Windows 7 after the support has ended, your PC will still work, but it may likely become more vulnerable to security risks and viruses.
 
From January 14th, 2020 Microsoft will no longer provide the following

  • Technical Support
  • Software Updates
  • Security Updates

To avoid security risks, malware, exploits, and viruses, you will need to upgrade to Windows 10 to stay current. As time goes on you will find many other software packages and hardware manufacturers will leave Windows 7 from their supported operating system list, so for example next time you buy that new Printer, or Accounting software upgrade, you simply won’t be able to use it.
