Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Windows 10 users urged to prepare for
Microsoft pulling support
If you’re “still” using the Windows 10
operating system on your PC, today is Doomsday. After October 14, 2025,
Microsoft will no longer provide software and security updates or bug fixes for
the 10-year-old OS. If you keep using your PC with Windows 10, it’ll become
more vulnerable to viruses or malicious software. There are three options you
can choose from. The easiest but most costly one is to buy a new PC with
Windows 11. Then the least costly option is to upgrade the OS to Windows 11 for
free, but only if your PC meets the minimum requirements, including a 1
GHz or faster 64-bit processor with 2 or more cores, 4 GB of RAM, and 64 GB of
storage. The last option is to pay $30 to Microsoft to get the Extended
Security Updates (ESU) program, but it expires after 12 months. Without the
latest defense systems, your “windows” are open to malicious attack. Oh,
another way to live with your now vulnerable PC. Disconnect it from the
Internet. What would you do now, cost or risk?
Read the article and learn how vulnerable
Windows 10 will be after today.
