End Of Life – Microsoft Windows and Office

Microsoft has a support lifetime for each of their products.  Below is a list of software that has or soon will reach its end of life and support.  You should not run software that is not supported, since it may contain security issues that are not fixed and can put your computer and information at risk. Michael Spice can help you with replacement and updating to a supported version of Office, Windows and Windows Server.
