Windows 8.1 Ending Support January 10, 2023

Do you have a device running Windows 8.1? Microsoft will be ending support on January 10th, 2023.

No longer supported means you will no longer receive technical assistance and software updates, like security patches. This leaves you at risk, because security patches fix vulnerabilities found in the operating system, and left unpatched, leave you at risk of being compromised.

Microsoft recommends updating to a more current, in-service, and supported Windows release. If your devices do not meet the system requirement to run a more current release, they recommend that you replace the device with one that supports Windows 11.
