The Clock is Ticking for Northern Michigan Businesses
Is Your Business Prepared?
On October 14, 2025, Microsoft will end support for Windows 10, creating significant challenges for unprepared businesses:

- Compatibility Issues: New software may not work with outdated systems
- Compliance Concerns: Unsupported systems may violate industry regulations
