Prez Says for September 2025
Welcome to September, the month of Labor Day, Back to School, and a mixture of hot weather and more comfortable days.
On September 2nd, we will have our Tech Corner and General Meeting via Zoom only. Our General Meeting program will be "Windows 10 End of Life – What Next?" presented by Alan German, Ottawa PC User’s Group. Windows 10 will reach End-of-Life, and hence the end of all support, on October 14, 2025. So, if you have a computer that is currently running Windows 10, what are you going to do? In this presentation, we will discuss the various options, including carrying on using Windows 10, upgrading to Windows 11, and buying a new computer. However, there is another option. Join us Tuesday to learn the possibilities available to you including some you may not have considered. Alan will be presenting live via Zoom.
Do you have questions about one of your computer devices or software? Join us via Zoom at 6:00 PM on September 2nd for our Technology Corner. Topics for the September Tech Corner are: Win 11 vs. Chrome, Win 10 updates, Data Poisoning, more AI issues, Omi, AOL, etc.
