Hi,
I'm currently still running Windows 7 on my desktop PC, and in only a few days MS will end the support for Win7.
I know that I should update to Win10 but since I have no issues with Win7 I was wondering if it was ok to stick to Win7 even after MS ended to support for it.
Would there be any dangers like malware or viruses that Win7 wold be more vulnerable to after the support period ended?
Is there anything I can do (other than taking that PC completely off the internet) to still keep running Win7 safely?
Or is there really no way around getting Win10?
I'm not worried about the costs of Win10, I saw that license can be bought for relatively little money, but I am not a big an of having to re-install all my software. If there is no way around it, then be it, but I wanted to ask around first.
Thanks!
Lars
