University-owned devices running Windows 10 will be updated to Windows 11 this Summer. As Microsoft discontinues support for Windows 10 later this year, and to ensure you continue to receive important security updates, performance enhancements, and ongoing support, CCIT engineers will be upgrading all University-owned devices currently running Windows 10 to Windows 11.
