Windows 7: Microsoft's support stops today

The life cycle of Windows 7 completed according to Microsoft and those who have stayed in this operating system should consider their next steps to upgrade to a newer version.


Σon January 14, Microsoft stops offering upgrades and security updates for the OS and mentions the frequently asked questions that arise from such a decision, such as 'what shall I do'And 'What if I continue to use Windows 7'.

These questions are answered by the relevant Microsoft site (source) and the most important is the absence of updates that can leave a computer exposed to a number of threats. Although the free upgrade to Windows 10 was completed in 2016 there is still the possibility to go to Windows 10 for free and it is especially recommended if we are talking about business PCs in which an insurance company for example will henceforth have the right not to cover damage from cybercrime if they have this operating system installed.

At the same time large security companies such as ESET Releases protection software of the same name states that Windows 7 is now a 'time bomb for consumers and businesses', thus urging users to take appropriate action.

As for the upgrade, it can be done through it Windows 10 Update Assistant, a tool available through the Microsoft site.
