Millions of Windows 10 PCs Face Security Disaster as Microsoft Ends Support

2025-01-06

Millions of Windows 10 users face a looming security crisis as Microsoft plans to end support for the OS on October 14, 2025. With millions of devices still running Windows 10, especially in Germany, the lack of security updates leaves them vulnerable to cyberattacks. Security experts urge immediate action: upgrade to Windows 11, switch to an alternative OS, or face significant risks like ransomware and data breaches. Businesses face additional compliance and productivity concerns. The situation is more critical than the Windows 7 end-of-life, highlighting the urgent need for users and businesses to act now.
