IT Services is preparing to roll out Windows 11 across the university. With Microsoft ending support for Windows 10 soon (no more bug fixes, or security patches), we’re making the move prior to this to keep everything secure and running smoothly.
Why Windows 11?
Windows 11 brings a fresh look and powerful features to improve your experience:
Modern design: A cleaner, more intuitive interface with a redesigned Start menu and File Explorer.
Boosted productivity: Tools like Snap Layouts help you multitask more easily.
Stronger security: Enhanced protection against cyber threats.
Better accessibility: Built-in tools like Narrator, Live Captions, and Voice Access support all users.
Faster performance: Quicker boot times and smoother multitasking.
AI features: Smart tools to help automate tasks and improve efficiency.
Plus, Office 64-bit is coming too
We’ll also be upgrading to Office 64-bit, which means better performance for working with large files and apps like Visio and Project. This piece of work will happen once the Windows 11 upgrade has been completed.
