We weren’t expecting Microsoft to charge people to update to Windows 11, particularly as the company makes most of its Windows revenue through commercial and OEM licenses.
It even includes access to Android apps through Amazon’s Appstore. Windows 11 will include a new UI, with a Start menu overhaul, performance improvements, and updates to improve multitasking. Windows 11 will be delivered through Windows Update in much the same way as Windows 10 updates have been made available previously. Much like how Windows 10 was free for Windows 7 and Windows 8 users, this new Windows 11 version will be free for existing Windows 10 users.Īll you’ll need is a PC that meets the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11, which is now a 64-bit CPU, 4GB of RAM, and 64GB of storage.
Microsoft officially unveiled Windows 11 today, and the software maker is committing to make it a free upgrade for Windows 10 users.
