On October 14, 2025, Microsoft is pulling the cord for Windows 10. No drama, you might think -- but think again. It is, unfortunately, a crossroads. And it affects thousands of Swedish companies that work daily on systems that will soon no longer receive security updates. In an era where data breaches, ransomware and disruption are becoming more common — this is a risk you don't want to face.
But calm. Windows 11 is a free upgrade from version 10. Wondering if your hardware can handle it? Whether you have a reliable PC from 2016 or are looking to buy a new AI-powered PC, Compliq will help you find the right way forward.
What happens when support for Windows 10 disappears?
When Microsoft ends support for an operating system, it means no more security updates, bug fixes, or performance improvements are released. It also means that new vulnerabilities, constantly discovered, remain open doors — right into your network.
That's why Microsoft, along with partners worldwide, is now urging users to upgrade to Windows 11 completely free of charge.
Is your computer ready for Windows 11?
To install Windows 11, your computer must pass certain minimum requirements. Here's a quick summary:
Prosessor: 1 GHz or faster, 2 cores, 64-bit
FRAME: At least 4 GB
Stockpiling: At least 64GB
Firmware: UEFI with Secure Boot
TPM: Versione 2.0
Graph: DirectX 12 compatible card
Screen: HD (720p), at least 9 inches
You can check for yourself whether your computer is ready through the official page of Microsoft:https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifications?r=1
Do you feel insecure about terms like “TPM 2.0” and “WDDM 2.0”?. That's why at Compliq we offer a simple compatibility check. Contact us or come in with your computer to us — we'll do the rest.
Four options — for all wallets and needs
Whether you are a sole proprietor or with an entire office full of computers, we have a solution for you:
1. Upgrade your existing hardware
Many computers are close to passing the requirements, but fall short on details. In many cases, replacing a part — such as the graphics card, storage, or TPM module — is enough to make the machine compatible. Our service workshop will help you with that. Cost-effective and climate-smart.
2. Choose a Refurbishment Computer
A used but used computer is often more than enough for office work — and a smart choice for both the economy and the environment. We have a large range of quality controlled models.
3. Buy new — from well-known manufacturers
We offer computers from HP, Lenovo, Asus and other leading brands. Both desktop and portable models, for all needs.
4. Let's build your next computer from scratch
Do you want the best? Then we build a computer entirely according to your business needs — pre-installed, optimized and delivered directly to your office. This is the most future-proof and agile option, especially if you work with demanding applications or want local AI power.
Why is this so important?
It's about security. And security again.
As long as your computer receives updates, Microsoft is plugging new security holes. But when the updates stop, so does the protection. That's when hackers step in. Through known vulnerabilities that will never be fixed. Then an antivirus program is no longer enough.
With cyber attacks on the rise in avalanches, and with the EU tightening data protection requirements, this is not a point to postpone until the next quarterly meeting.
Time to act — Compliq will help you all the way
Whichever solution suits you best, we are here. From initial analysis to ready delivery. We're not just talking computers — we're talking security, future-proofing and an IT environment that works with as little friction as possible.
Konakta Bosse or someone else here at Compliq will help you.
