Important information: End of support for Windows 10
Microsoft will end support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025.
This means that there will be no more security updates from this date. Devices with Windows 10 therefore pose an increased security risk - both within the university network and when used via VPN.
What does this mean for you?
- We strongly recommend that you upgrade your device to Windows 11 in good time.
- Devices that still use Windows 10 will no longer be adequately protected after the end of support.
What you can do
1. check which Windows version you are using:
- Press the Windows + R keys.
- Enter winver and confirm with OK.
- You will be shown which version of Windows is currently installed.
2. if your device is managed centrally by the IT Service Center:
- You do not need to do anything yourself.
- If your device has not yet been converted and you have not received an appointment, please contact the IT Service Desk on extension -5678.
