💻 Windows 10 Is Ending: Here’s Why You Should Plan Your Windows 11 Upgrade With Wavetree Now.

Support for Windows 10 officially ended on October 14, 2025. Have you upgraded your systems?

For many organisations, this change could affect performance, security, and day-to-day productivity.

At Wavetree, we specialise in helping local businesses manage technology changes, like upgrading Windows servers, with confidence. Our Cheltenham-based team provides practical, people-focused IT support that keep your business running smoothly.

🛑 What Does “End of Support” Mean for Windows 10?

When Microsoft ends support for an operating system, it stops releasing:

• 🔒 Security updates and vulnerability patches

• ⚙️ Bug fixes and performance improvements

• 💬 Technical support from Microsoft

After October 2025, any device still running Windows 10 will become increasingly vulnerable to cyber threats including malware, phishing, and ransomware. Businesses relying on outdated systems could face serious security risks, compliance issues, and unexpected downtime later on.
