Microsoft's support for Windows 7 has ended

On January 14, 2020, the support period for Windows 7 has ended.
We are aware that changes to the configuration of production systems can be difficult and that is why we offer our help during this process: we will discuss possible solutions with you, advise what to do next and answer questions regarding lifecycle of Microsoft products.

What does end of support mean?

Beginning January 14, 2020, your Windows 7 PC will continue to function, but Microsoft will no longer provide the following services:

  • technical support regarding any problems,
  • software update,
  • security updates and patches.

You can continue to use your Windows 7 computer without constantly installing software and security updates, however this will increase your risk of virus and malware infections. In the future, the best way to stay safe is to switch to Windows 10. Windows 10 is best for a new computer. While Windows 10 can be installed on an older device, it is not recommended.

What can I do now?

In order to have up-to-date support (to, among other things, avoid the exploitation of operating system vulnerabilities, avoid encryption and data theft):

  1. Perform an audit of the configuration of your computers - you will receive a report from us on the current hardware configuration, Windows versions and recommendations for changes.
  2. Upgrade operating systems to Windows 10 (for a fee) or purchase a new computer with Windows 10.
  3. In the event that you have not decided to buy new computers, we recommend modernizing your hardware, e.g. by increasing the memory size and installing a fast SSD disk.
