Unless I'm much mistaken, Windows 10 EOL isn't until 2025, so two years left to run.

Oct 2025. Yeh that's not long in business.

Depends on the business really. For my last employer (~19,000 deployed PCs, lots of fussy mission critical legacy applications), 2 years would be cutting it extremely fine. For my current employer (~30 employees, nothing more complicated than standard office applications in use), you could do the upgrade in a week.

I imagine my current employer won't be worrying about upgrading before 2025.
