FixTech steps in to help as Microsoft pulls the plug on Windows 10 security

FixTech Informática can help you transition to Windows 11 or find replacement systems

On Tuesday October 14, Microsoft officially pulled the plug on support for Windows 10, leaving millions of computers around the world without vital security protection.

The decision affected approximately 40.5% of computers running Microsoft operating systems and to date, only 48.9% of machines have installed the most recent version, Windows 11.

The end of support means that Windows 10 users will no longer receive software updates, security checks or technical assistance from Microsoft. This has left countless computers vulnerable to emerging security threats, malware and system vulnerabilities that would have previously been addressed through regular updates. Meanwhile, Windows 11 users continue to receive these essential protections.

FixTech Informática, formerly known as Alex Woods Computer Services, is a vital resource for users throughout the Region of Murcia navigating this technological shift.

The company offers comprehensive assistance to Windows 10 users facing the end of support. For computers that meet the technical specifications, FixTech provides upgrade services to transition systems smoothly to Windows 11 25H2. This ensures that compatible machines continue to receive the security updates and software improvements necessary to protect user data and maintain system performance.

For people whose computers can’t support Windows 11, FixTech offers guidance in selecting appropriate replacement systems. The company will help customers find new laptops or desktop computers that fit their needs and budgets while ensuring they receive machines capable of running the latest operating system with full security protections.
