Windows 7 – End of Life Support

Did you know that Windows 7 End of Life is fast approaching?

Did you know that Windows 7 End of Life support from Microsoft is coming to an end on 14 January 2020?  So what does this mean for those who have a PC running the Windows 7 Operating System?  Overall, your computer will continue to operate and function as normal.   However Microsoft will no longer provide the following:

  • Technical support for any issues;
  • Software updates;
  • Security updates or fixes

Therefore without the necessary software and security updates, devices still operating the Windows 7 Operating System will be at greater risk of exposure to viruses and malware.

What Do You Need To Do To Protect Your Device?

All computers running the Windows 7 Operating System should be upgraded to Windows 10 as soon as possible.  The best way to install Windows 10 is with a clean install.  Using this approach will assist to resolve performance, startup, shut down, memory and apps issues.  As a result, the PC will have a fresh start.

Microsoft does suggest, whilst it is possible to install Windows 10 on your older device, it is best to experience Windows 10 on a new PC.

For businesses users who wish to stay with Windows 7, Microsoft has created Windows 7 Extended Security Updates through to January 2023.  However this is quite an expensive option and as such, may not be the best option for your business.

Features of Windows 10 Operating System

Windows 10 offers many great features and as such has recently surpassed Windows 7 to become the most popular Operating System.   Some of the great features include:

  1. Ongoing Feature and Security Patching
  2. Faster Start Up
  3. Touch Screen Capabilities
  4. Action Centre
  5. Better Browsing
  6. Improved Security
  7. Virtual Desktops & Timeline
  8. Better Selection Of Tools
  9. OneDrive On-Demand Syncing
  10. Smart Phone Tie Ins
  11. Voice Typing
  12. Nearby Sharing
