System Status

Please be advised that on Wednesday, October 29, 2025, the Kronos Time Management System will be unavailable starting at 9:00 am for about five (5) hours.

During the maintenance period on Wednesday, October 29th, there will not be access to the Kronos web application.

Punches will continue to be collected at all clocks throughout campus. These punches will be passed to timecards once the Kronos application is back online.

Employees who use the Kronos web application to record in- and out-times (time stamp) should follow their departmental procedures for manually recording their time during the network maintenance period. Timekeepers will be required to update time cards with punches collected manually after the maintenance is completed.

Thank you for your cooperation and patience during this maintenance period. All timekeeper questions regarding timecard edits following the maintenance outage should be directed to Payroll Management by phone at 215-926-2244 or by email at kronos@temple.edu.

On Monday, October 27th, between 1:28 p.m. and 3:23 p.m. some user experienced intermittent access to Eduroam and TUsecurewireless. Information Technology Services has resolved this issue.

Temple Windows 10 Systems to be Disconnected

Windows 10 will reach end-of-life on October 14, 2025. After this date, Microsoft will no longer provide security updates or support the operating system.  

Over 9,000 Windows 10 computers across the university have already been replaced or upgraded. However, approximately 1,000 devices remain.   

If these computers are not upgraded or replaced, they will be blocked from accessing the university network and Temple resources after October 14.

There are no exceptions. Windows 10 systems will not be permitted on Temple's network or allowed to access university resources.

Windows 11 is Microsoft's latest operating system release and the successor to Windows 10. This updated version of Windows offers enhanced security as well as a different look and feel. For more information, see our Windows 11 webpage.

October 14, 2025, is quickly approaching! We ask that departments complete a final inventory of any remaining Windows 10 systems and place replacement orders as soon as possible to avoid disruptions to business operations.

What You Can Do

• Contact your school/college or departmental IT support staff to discuss what needs to be done to meet the October 14 deadline.
   
• If you use special hardware or software with your Windows 10 environment, contact the vendor about their roadmap for Windows 11 compatibility if it is unclear. For help, contact your school/college or departmental IT support staff or enter a request at tuhelp.temple.edu.
