Windows 10 is Reaching End of Life – What You Need to Know

Windows 10 is Reaching End of Life – What You Need to Know & How The Original PC Doctor Can Help

Windows 10 has been a trusted and beloved operating system since its release in 2015. However, Microsoft has officially announced that Windows 10 will reach its End of Life on October 14, 2025. After this date, no further security updates, bug fixes, or technical support will be provided — meaning users who stay on Windows 10 will be at risk of security breaches, software compatibility issues, and reduced performance.
