Ubuntu 25.10 End of Life: How to Upgrade to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS

Ubuntu 25.10 has officially reached its End of Life (EOL). As a result, it will no longer receive security updates, bug fixes, or package updates from Canonical.

If your VPS is still running Ubuntu 25.10, we strongly recommend upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS to ensure your server remains secure, stable, and fully supported.

Why Upgrade?

Running an unsupported operating system can leave your server vulnerable to newly discovered security issues and software compatibility problems.

By upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04 LTS, you’ll benefit from:

  • Long-Term Support (LTS) with regular security updates
  • Improved system stability and performance
  • Updated software packages and kernel improvements
  • Continued compatibility with modern applications and services

Whether you’re hosting websites, applications, databases, or development environments, keeping your operating system up to date is an important part of maintaining a secure VPS.

Before You Upgrade

Before starting the upgrade process, we recommend:

  • Backing up your important files and data.
  • Creating a VPS Snapshot if you’re using a CrownCloud KVM VPS. Snapshots provide a quick rollback option should you need to restore your server.
  • Updating all installed packages to the latest versions.

Step-by-Step Upgrade Guide

To make the upgrade process straightforward, we’ve published a detailed guide covering every step—from preparing your server to completing the release upgrade and verifying your system afterwards.
