Windows 10 end of support: Risk to security and privacy

The migration assistance for Windows 11 – your all-round carefree package for the easy switch from Windows 10 to Windows 11. From this point on, Microsoft will no longer provide any security updates for Windows 10 – so any newly discovered security vulnerability will remain open. Any PC that is still running Windows 10 is then considered potentially insecure. However, since Windows 10 is still used on over 50% of all computers worldwide, cybercriminals will quickly target these systems as a worthwhile target.

Your options when moving to Windows 11

To switch from Windows 10 to Windows 11, you basically have the following options:

  • Continue to use Windows 10 and accept the risk of an attack.
  • Buy a new PC with Windows 11 and transfer all files, settings and programs from the old computer by hand.
  • If the existing hardware is new enough, install Windows 11 on the old PC and set it up from scratch.

If all this is too time-consuming or uncertain for you, leave the main work to the professionals: In cooperation with our partner Laplink Software, Inc. We have developed the Moving Guide for Windows 11 – your all-round carefree package for the easy switch from Windows 10 to Windows 11.

Quick and easy to understand even for laymen , our Windows 11 migration guide will help you move all your data, settings, user profiles, and programs from your old Windows 10 PC to a new Windows 11 PC – or even upgrade to Windows 11 in-place directly on the old PC. This saves you tedious manual steps and minimizes the risk of errors.

You also save time and money: While a PC specialist service quickly charges over €150 for the migration of a private PC, our relocation package is much cheaper.

The relocation package includes everything you need for a successful migration:

Relocation assistance application scenarios

O&O DiskImage – creates a complete 1:1 copy of your old computer before upgrading. The advantage: If something goes wrong during the move (e.g. power failure or hardware failure), you can immediately restore the condition of the old PC.

Laplink PCmover – the only software that automatically transfers all selected programs, files, settings from your old PC to the new one.

O&O SafeErase – destroys all data residues on the old computer after the move before you sell, pass it on or dispose of it.

Software with special copy protection or special license conditions may have to be reactivated on the new PC with the original license key. Some older programs or system settings of the old PC may not be compatible on Windows 11 and therefore cannot be transferred.
Info: Windows 11 (operating system) or new hardware are not included in the scope of delivery of the relocation aid.
