Windows 11 is Finally Here!

Microsoft launched Windows 11 on October 5th as a free upgrade for people currently running Windows 10 if their device is compatible. You can check if your device is compatible by using the PC Health Check App. If you’re not in a hurry, the new Windows update will be pushed to your device in the upcoming months when Microsoft indicates the device is ready for the upgrade. However, if you’re not wanting to wait, you do still have the option to manually download Windows 11 and see its new look and features.

How To Install Windows 11

If you’re upgrading from Windows 10, Microsoft recommend you wait until you’re notified through Windows Update that the upgrade is ready for your device. To check if Windows 11 is ready for your device, select Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update > Check for updates.

If the update is available, you’ll see Feature Update to Windows 11. Then click Download and Install.

You can also check for known issues that may affect your device using the Windows release health hub.
