This CP ITG briefing has been compiled for those supporting pharmacy IT, such as pharmacy system suppliers or IT helpdesks, who may be involved in supporting the transition from older to newer Windows versions. Some sections of this briefing will also be relevant to community pharmacy contractors.

For example, from 2020, Microsoft ended its free support for the Windows 7 operating system. From December 2020, Microsoft ended its free support for the Windows 10 Home version 1903. Microsoft no longer fixes security issues discovered with older Windows versions for free.
