News: End of support for Windows 10
Support for Windows 10 will end on October 14, 2025, after which Microsoft will no longer provide free updates and security fixes for Windows 10 (end of Windows 10 support), which in the simplest case means that only the operating system needs to be updated. The IT Service Center (Department 8) is carrying out a coordinated changeover to Windows 11 for the administrative workstations it manages. Departments that are responsible for their own IT support must ensure the secure operation of the end devices, either by migrating to Windows 11 or - from November - by participating in the Microsoft ESU (Extended Security Updates) program for Windows 10 for a fee. This means that the support period for Win10 will be extended by one year for a fee.
The departments must take responsibility for this themselves. ESU licenses can either be purchased directly from Microsoft (e.g. via the volume contract of the University of Bremen) or from your partner, for example an EA reseller or CSP partners without their own IT support can request support for Windows 11 migration via the central service desk (servicedeskprotect me ?!uni-bremenprotect me ?!.de) in the IT Service Center (Department 8).
