Services · Windows 11 upgrades

Get off Windows 10 without losing a day.

Windows 10 is out of support. Computers still running it only get security fixes if you pay Microsoft for them — and that option runs out. We upgrade the machines that can make the move, after hours, and plan replacements for the ones that can't.

Why it can't wait

Extended updates buy time. Not much, and not cheaply.

Microsoft ended free support for Windows 10 on October 14, 2025. The only way to keep a Windows 10 computer patched now is to buy Extended Security Updates — per computer, one year at a time.

The price doubles every year, and there are only three. Buy in late and you pay for the years you missed as well: coverage to October 2027 costs $183 per computer, and reaching the final cutoff in October 2028 costs $427. After that, there are no more updates at any price.

    PER COMPUTER

Seen a $30 offer from Microsoft? That's the home program, which runs to October 2027. It isn't available for computers joined to a business domain or enrolled in device management, which describes most office computers — so the business prices above are the real ones. For most offices, that money is better spent on the move to Windows 11.

How it works

Four steps, and you approve the cost first.

  1. STEP 01

    Check every computer

    We look at each machine's processor, memory, storage, TPM, and Secure Boot settings, and tell you which ones can run Windows 11.

  2. STEP 02

    Agree to the plan

    You get a plain-English list: upgrade, upgrade after a settings change, or replace. The quote comes before any work begins.

  3. STEP 03

    Upgrade after hours

    We confirm there's a current backup, then run each upgrade outside your working hours, so nobody loses a morning to it.

  4. STEP 04

    Check and fix

    We open the apps each person relies on, reinstall anything the upgrade broke, and reconnect printers and shared folders.

What's included

  • A compatibility check for every computer, including TPM and hardware
  • A written plan and a fixed quote before we start
  • Upgrades scheduled outside business hours
  • Files, apps, and settings kept in place
  • Business apps, printers, and scan folders checked afterwards
  • A replacement plan for machines that can't make the jump

When upgrading isn't an option

Some computers can't make the jump.

Older processors and missing hardware rule some machines out. For those, we plan replacements around your budget — oldest and most important first.

When a new computer arrives, we set it up, move over every file, desktop item, and setting, reinstall the apps, and retire the old one. Your staff log in to a computer that already feels like theirs.

Windows 11 FAQ

Questions we get asked first.

Will we lose files or settings?
No. An in-place upgrade keeps each person's files, apps, and settings where they were. We still make sure there's a current backup before we touch anything.
How disruptive is it?
Barely. Upgrades run after hours, and we check each computer before the person sits back down at it. If something needs their input, we arrange a time that suits them.
What if a computer can't run Windows 11?
Some just need a setting switched on — TPM is often turned off at the factory. The ones that genuinely can't upgrade get a replacement plan, and we can handle the replacement too, files and all.
What does it cost?
It depends on how many computers you have and how many can upgrade, so we quote after the compatibility check. You approve the cost before we begin.
Can we just keep using Windows 10 for now?
You can. One option is to buy Extended Security Updates for each computer. They cost more every year, late buyers pay for the years they missed, and they end for good in October 2028. The other is to skip them, but then those computers get no security fixes at all, and one breach or ransomware attack can easily cost more than the upgrade would have. If you have a machine you can't replace yet, we'll tell you honestly whether a year of coverage is worth it. Either way, it's a bridge, not a plan.
What happens after the upgrade?
Monthly clients are covered by our patch management: we approve each Windows 11 feature update once it's proven, so every computer stays on a supported version.
