End of Windows 10 Support
Windows 10 support will come to an end on October 14th 2025. After this date it will become unsafe to use Windows 10. There's a guide to options for Windows 10 users here.
However your computer may still be usable with Linux (aka GNU / Linux), a free operating system. Linux can prolong the life of devices and reduce waste, save money, provide privacy and security, and empower users.
