Windows 7 End of Support
Updated: Jan 22, 2020
Earlier this year, Microsoft had announced they will be ending their extended support for Windows 7 (Home & Pro) by Jan 14th, 2020.
After this date, Microsoft will no longer be releasing software updates for Windows 7. That means any computers running Windows 7 will become a security risk after this date, as any system vulnerabilities / exploits that come up will no longer be patched by Microsoft. As such, it will not be advised to have any systems running Windows 7 in an environment.
In attempt to stay ahead of the curve, Wappo Information Services will be reaching out to our clients in the following months with recommendations for software, and computer upgrades to prevent any possible issues.
