` 10 JUNE 2019 Goodbye to Windows 7 Dear Readers. After a fairly busy month installing Windows 10 on almost 200 school computers, I will be glad to see the back of May! Windows 7 has gone into its “end of life” time frame and what does this mean? In short, on 14 January 2020, Microsoft will no longer offer support, you will still get your security updates but no other updates. I was surprised to read whilst researching for this article that Windows 7 has been around for 10 years as it was released in July 2009. This is making me feel old as I remember Windows XP, Windows ME, 98 and 95, and in the dim recesses of my brain, I have some vague memories of Dos 3.1. Anyway, what do you need to do? Ultimately Microsoft wants you to upgrade to the next version, ideally Windows 10, but 8.1 will do as well. However, I would recommend avoiding 8.1 as it was as much of a let-down as a balloon with a hole in it. 8.1 also is in its “end of life” state as of January 2018, and by 2023 it will be gone as well. You have options. If you were feeling brave you could move to Mac, or keep hanging in there until the very last possible moment, or upgrade sooner than later. There are options for buying your next version of Windows. You can walk into any local supplier and buy a copy, some will even include a backup and restore service with your newly acquired system, or you could buy a brand shiny new computer complete with the latest software on it, or you could buy online and install it yourself if you have a basic knowledge and understanding of what you have to do. Installations have become a lot easier over the years, but if you do try it for yourself you do so at your own risk. Finally, you can download direct from Microsoft. Have a look at the link here http://tiny.cc/kac26y to find some guidance directly from MS. You can, from this link, download your upgrade and buy online as an option too. Good luck with whatever route you choose! As always, questions and comments are welcome. Please do contact me, that’s Andy at ICT@lyntonadvertiser.com advertise@lyntonadvertiser.com 01598 752788
