In just over 5 months, after 10 years of Windows 7, Microsoft will end official support for software that is globally installed on every third computer. How will Windows 7 work after January 14, 2020 and what do you need to know now to be prepared for changes?
“Ten years is 365 242 199 days. The number which makes you dizzy. How much has changed at that time is best seen by computers and devices from the world of technology available at that time in 2009 – and today. Cell phones instead of almost 5 inch touch screens closed on the flap, or rang in a sound similar to the 90s synthesizer, the tablets were just crawling and the laptops – with the charger weighed in the set as much as a packed travel suitcase with items for an extended weekend “- we read in Paweł’s entry Łakomski from Microsoft.
However, if you’re still using Windows 7, it’s important to remember that the technical support of Windows 7 will end on January 14, 2020. After this date, technical support and software updates from Windows Update to help protect your computer will no longer be available for the product.
Microsoft strongly recommends moving to Windows 10 before January 2020 to avoid the situation where the technical support you need is no longer available.
Microsoft claims that Windows 10 is installed on more than 40 percent. devices in the world.
