If you missed the memo, Microsoft has dropped support for Windows 10.
After a decade of regular security updates, big fixes, and exciting new features delivered to your laptop or desktop PC for free, Windows 10 will remain in its current update after the final update is rolled-out in the coming hours.
Without these critical updates, Microsoft has warned that anyone who continues to use Windows 10 will be left "at greater risk for viruses and malware". Once a flaw in the operating system has been uncovered, hackers can continue to exploit the vulnerability in millions of PCs with no fear that Microsoft will issue a fix.
PC owners must make 1 of 5 possible choices before midnight. One of the potential paths available to Windows 10 users is to switch to a new device designed from the ground up for Windows 11.
Currys has kickstarted a timely sale across all Windows 11 devices on its online store — offering an extra £100 off certain laptops when you use discount code COPILOT100 at checkout, making it more affordable than ever to switch to the latest operating system.
It announced: "Windows 10 support ends today! Windows 10 PCs will no longer receive security or free software updates. Upgrade now to the latest Windows 11 laptops, plus get an extra £100 off any Copilot+ PC"

It's been four years since the end of support for Windows 10 was confirmed by Microsoft, but it's finally here.

Currys wants to make the switch more affordable with a £100 discount on Copilot+ PCs. With the code COPILOT100 at checkout, you can even slash the price of sale items
