[Lex Computer & Tech Group/LCTG] Upgrade to Windows 11

[S Ou]

Yesterday the Microsoft blog had an article that suggested you can get a
year of updates by backing up your settings to OneDrive ( part of o365).
Saw it on windows central ..   this just kicks the can down the road for a
year.

No need to pay first year if you back up settings to o365 drive! ???

Today, we’re introducing additional free enrollment options and the simple
steps to get started.
Extended Security Updates for Windows 10:
• For individuals: An enrollment wizard will be available through
notifications and in Settings, making it easy to enroll in ESU directly
from your personal Windows 10 PC. Through the enrollment wizard, you’ll be
able to choose from three options:
• Use Windows Backup to sync your settings to the cloud—at no additional
cost..
• Redeem 1,000 Microsoft Rewards points—at no additional cost..
• Pay $30 USD (local pricing may vary).
Once you select an option and follow the on-screen steps, your PC will
automatically be enrolled. ESU coverage for personal devices runs from Oct.
15, 2025, through Oct. 13, 2026
