Windows 11 at UT San Antonio

UTS is pleased to announce the upgrade of all UT San Antonio PCs from Windows 10 to the Windows 11 operating system. As you may already be aware, Microsoft has elected to end support and stop updating Windows 10. This will make Windows 10 untenable in the UTSA environment.

All UTSA-issued PCs must be upgraded by September 28, 2026.

Upgrade Options: Self-Service or Technician-Conducted

Most users have two options for completing the upgrade: you can conduct a self-service upgrade or a technician-conducted upgrade. The upgrade will maintain all programs and data while upgrading the Operating System (OS) and several of UTSA's supported applications.

Note: While you are unlikely to lose any data when completing the upgrade, it would still be a good idea to review the data you have backed up to OneDrive for Business.

Self-Service Upgrade

You can complete the self-service upgrade on-campus or at home. For fastest results, consider conducting the upgrade from your office on campus while connected to a hard-wired connection.
