Windows 10 goes end of life in October 2025. After this date, it will no longer receive important security updates and will therefore be both at risk and also against University/College IT policy by running an operating system that is no longer supported.
Therefore, you need to look at upgrading/replacing your Windows 10 machine(s).
Follow this to run the app to check your machine(s).
If your machine will take Windows 11 then you can download the Windows 11 update assistant from here - https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows11 and run that.
Before doing the update, please make sure you have full backups of your data just in case. Please note that this may take a while to complete so plan accordingly so that you do not interrupt the update.
If your machine will not take Windows 11 then you should look to replace it.
