All good things must come to an end, even Windows 7. After January 14, 2020, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or support for PCs running Windows 7. But you can keep the good times rolling by moving to Windows 10.
You have questions, we have answers:
Can I upgrade my existing PC to Windows 10?
Yes, you can upgrade compatible Windows 7 PCs with the purchase of a Windows 10 license. However, depending on the age of your PC, performance can suffer after Windows 10 is installed. To take advantage of the latest hardware capabilities, we strongly recommend moving to a new PC with Windows 10.
What happens if I continue to use Windows 7?
You can continue to use Windows 7, but once support ends on January 14, 2020, your PC will no longer be security compliant, and will be highly vulnerable to security risks effecting not only your PC but your entire network.
Can Windows 7 still be activated after January 14, 2020?
Windows 7 can still be installed and activated after support has ended. However, to avoid security risks and viruses, Microsoft recommends that you install Windows 10.
Will Internet Explorer still be supported on Windows 7?
Support for Internet Explorer on Windows 7 devices will be discontinued on January 14, 2020. As a component of Windows operating system, Internet Explorer follows the same support life-cycle.
