Don’t Get Caught Out by the Windows 10 Deadline: Plan Your IT Refresh with Lex
Key Takeaways: Windows 11 Upgrade Planning
- Upgrading to Windows 11 helps your business stay secure, compliant, and future-ready.
- Asset finance can spread the cost of new hardware and infrastructure upgrades.
- Operating leases provide flexibility and reduce upfront capital investment.
From 14th October 2025, Microsoft will officially end support for Windows 10. After this date, devices running Windows 10 will no longer receive security updates, bug fixes or technical support. For businesses, this represents a major risk — continuing to use unsupported systems increases the chance of cyber threats, data breaches, and non-compliance with data protection regulations.
What Does This Mean for Your Business?
Many businesses are still using equipment purchased during the pandemic. Unfortunately, a large proportion of these machines don’t meet the system requirements for Windows 11, meaning a simple software upgrade isn’t an option — the hardware itself will need replacing.
Delaying action could expose your business to:
-
Heightened vulnerability to cyberattacks
-
Regulatory issues and potential fines
-
Unplanned downtime and IT disruption
-
Delays in sourcing equipment due to high demand
