Windows 10 is reaching the end of its support life. That means security updates will eventually stop, and older machines that cannot run Windows 11 will become a growing liability.
Many small businesses are discovering that a portion of their computers are simply not eligible for the free upgrade. The hardware is too old. This creates a dual problem: the need to move to a supported operating system and the need to replace aging equipment at the same time.
The businesses that handle this smoothly start inventorying their systems early. They identify which machines can upgrade, which need to be replaced, and how to stage the work so that daily operations are not disrupted. Waiting until the last minute usually costs more and creates unnecessary stress.
