While your devices running Windows 10 will still operate, <em>Windows 10 Home<\/em> and <em>Windows 10 Pro<\/em> will cease to receive updates from Microsoft. Both will no longer be eligible for technical support. This can result in a number of difficulties for users and businesses:\u00a0<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/Windows-10-End-of-Life-Windows-on-Rugged-Tablet-rotated.jpg\" alt=\"A rugged tablet opened to the Windows 10 home screen, resting on a car engine.\" class=\"wp-image-2188825\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The next 12 months are the last to enjoy a supported and updated Windows 10.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-security-risk-nbsp\">Security risk&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the end of updates, a Windows 10 device won\u2019t be privy to any developments in the cyber security landscape. As new malware and other threats are developed, Windows 10 security will not adapt. This puts the device at a high risk of security breach.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-compliance-requirements-nbsp\">Compliance requirements&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to hardware safety and sanitation requirements, many <a href=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/certifications-for-computers-in-medicine\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">regulatory frameworks<\/a> mandate that businesses maintain the latest updates on their systems for optimal security. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hhs.gov\/hipaa\/for-professionals\/security\/laws-regulations\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">HIPAA<\/a>, for instance, has stringent cyber security regulations to keep PHI (Protected Health Information) systems updated and fortified against breaches. Best practice dictates using the latest operating system to receive regular security updates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-performance-degradation-nbsp\">Performance degradation&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After an operating system reaches EOL, subsequently developed software and programs may not be optimized for the outdated system. In some cases, they may not run at all! Many third-party software providers will stop updating their software for Windows 10 around this same time period.\u00a0Additionally, as hardware develops and our standards for device speed and performance continue to increase, retired systems will begin to show their age. Slower speeds or bugs resulting from incompatibility with newer programs and files can make devices near inoperable.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-prepare-for-windows-10-end-of-life-nbsp\">How to prepare for Windows 10 End of Life&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s never too early or too late to plan for the switch from Windows 10 to 11. Large industrial and medical operations, like a factory with automation; a hospital with hundreds of computers receiving, tracking, and assessing patient data; and any processes that rely on machine learning or vision will require great care to implement a system-wide update thoroughly and efficiently.\u00a0<br><br>Systems are at risk the moment they are no longer supported for updates. What\u2019s more, some compliance standards may require the latest updates, so delaying the transition to Windows 11 could even result in legal headaches. It\u2019s advisable to allow plenty of time before the Windows 10 EOL date to avoid any of these problems.\u00a0<br><br>The following are some factors to consider:\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-check-hardware-compatibility-and-availability-nbsp\">Check hardware compatibility and availability&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Windows 11 has stricter hardware and system requirements than those of its predecessor. For instance, like many of its preceding versions, Windows 10 was offered in two types for 32-bit and 64-bit devices. In Windows 11, however, a 32-bit device will no longer be sufficient. Another key difference is the TPM requirement \u2014 which was once optional \u2014 increased from the original 1.2 version to <a href=\"https:\/\/support.microsoft.com\/en-us\/windows\/enable-tpm-2-0-on-your-pc-1fd5a332-360d-4f46-a1e7-ae6b0c90645c\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">TPM 2.0<\/a>.\u00a0<br><br>In some instances, your hardware may have the capability to run Windows 11 already, unbeknownst to you. In this case, it may be best to consult a professional to diagnose necessary updates for the new operating system. Teguar is proud to offer a <a href=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/refresh-program\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Refresh Program<\/a> for all our devices, providing you with the opportunity to optimize your current units without the need to invest in new equipment.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/Windows-10-End-of-Life-Refresh-Program.jpg\" alt=\"A smiling Teguar employee is working on a line of computers laid out on a work station.\" class=\"wp-image-2188824\"\/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Our skilled Teguar team can pre-install Windows 11 and perform other desired modifications on your new devices.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>If you find that your devices <em>don\u2019t<\/em> meet all the requirements to run Windows 11, it may be time to replace them. With Windows 10 EOL only 12 months away, consider the availability and lead time of required products. <a href=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/oem-odm-computer-design-services\/\">Specialized computers<\/a> developed for the industrial and medical sectors are often less easily available on a ready-to-ship basis.\u00a0<br><br>Luckily (especially if you are reading this closer to that October 2025 deadline), Teguar can offer a solution. We proudly offer a robust catalog of <a href=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/quick-ship\/?os_filter=Windows\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Quick Ship products<\/a> in stock at our Charlotte, NC, USA location. With our ready-to-ship availability, U.S. mainland businesses can get Windows 11 implemented on a new device in a matter of weeks.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-implementation-and-setup-on-existing-devices-nbsp\">Implementation and setup on existing devices&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>System configurations necessary before installing Windows 11, like the enabling of TPM 2.0, <em>can<\/em> take a matter of minutes, but it\u2019s advisable to handle them in advance in case of unexpected delay. After that, of course, the installation of the Windows update itself can be time consuming in an operation involving many computers. Like any major update, these should be scheduled to occur when the majority of your employees are not likely to need or be using any connected devices.\u00a0<br><br>After installing Windows 11, it may be necessary to import or re-sync data and other files utilized within your system.\u00a0<br><br>Another factor to consider is the time to train personnel on the updated system. This time will be doubled in the case of any new hardware acquired in the switch. This training will aid in acclimation to the updates so that the team can continue operations on the same page.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2024\/10\/Windows-10-End-of-Life-Switch-to-Windows-11.jpg\" alt=\"A battery powered medical computer TME-5940 with a Windows 11 screensaver\" class=\"wp-image-2188828\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-implementation-and-setup-on-new-hardware-nbsp\">Implementation and setup on new hardware&nbsp;<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Teguar can ship new hardware not only <a href=\"https:\/\/teguar.com\/eu\/tag\/windows-11\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">capable of Windows 11<\/a>, but with it pre-loaded for you.\u00a0 Even still, you will need to consider the setup time to re-establish all of the additional software programs and configurations that you had on your previous Windows 10 systems and implement them on your new Windows 11 devices.\u00a0 Things like network reconfiguration can be complex, and may require updates to your Group Policy and other side-wide management systems.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-need-some-guidance-through-windows-10-end-of-life\">Need some guidance through Windows 10 End of Life?\u00a0<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019re here to help.
