Windows 10 at the End: Clarity, Alternatives, and Trying Linux

What happens to a PC that no longer supports Windows 11? The information event Windows 10 at the End - What Now? will provide clear answers to a question that many people deal with in their digital everyday life on Thursday, October 1, 2026, at the vhs-ProbierLaden in Jena. From 5:00 PM to 6:30 PM, the focus will be on security risks, upgrade options, and the question of when a new device is actually worth it.

Understanding Guidance Instead of Technical Stress

The support for Windows 10 has ended, and outdated systems bring specific security risks. Visitors will receive a structured overview in the ProbierLaden: What options does the existing hardware offer? When will an upgrade to Windows 11 succeed? What arguments favor a new purchase?

The event is aimed at people who want to safely continue using their computer and are looking for reliable decision-making criteria. Technical terms will be explained in practical terms so that uncertainty can become a clear next step.

Getting to Know Linux as a Safe Alternative

A special focus will be on Linux. This free operating system offers a new perspective for many older computers and opens up an alternative to immediate new purchases. In the integrated Linux workshop, participants can practically understand the transition. They will experience how an alternative operating system is structured and what possibilities arise for their daily lives.

It is this connection between information and practical experimentation that defines the event experience in the ProbierLaden. Instead of just listening, visitors can grasp technical connections directly and overcome their hesitance.

Practical Event Management for Digital Basic Education

The event is designed as an accessible information and participation event. The organization and event planning of the Volkshochschule Jena combines professional orientation with specific everyday situations. This enables a targeted approach to people who use their computers independently but need support regarding operating systems, security updates, or hardware requirements.

The pleasant atmosphere of the ProbierLaden creates space for questions and personal assessments. The focus is not on abstract technical promises but on understandable options for one's own PC, personal data, and individual digital security.

What Visitors Can Expect

The event lasts about 90 minutes and includes an introduction to the consequences of the end of Windows 10 support, information on upgrades and new purchases, as well as a practical insight into Linux. The event will take place in the seminar area of the vhs-ProbierLaden and will be led by Oliver Ephrosi.

Admission is free. Registration through the Volkshochschule Jena is possible according to course information. The event is particularly suitable for adults and seniors who want to continue using their computers safely and reliably.

Conclusion

Windows 10 at the End - What Now? brings clarity to a confusing decision-making situation. Those who want to find out whether an upgrade, a new device, or Linux is suitable for their computer will receive understandable information and practical insights in Jena. Mark the date and plan the next steps for your PC safely.
