Obviously bear in mind that early versions of Windows 11 will have bugs and stuff that doesn’t work, as the whole point is you provide feedback on such issues so they can be fixed.This article provides guidance to help you plan for Windows 11 in your organization. If you’re wondering if your PC will be eligible for the free upgrade to Windows 11, Microsoft has a tool to check your system and inform you – but note there are issues around it being potentially buggy as we discuss at length here.įurther remember that if you can’t wait until Windows 11 is finally released, you could always enroll as a tester and give early builds a spin – official ones, rather than the leaked build which is already out there – as Microsoft has said it will release the first preview version of the OS next week.
It’ll all likely depend on how well the rollout goes to begin with, naturally…
Although hopefully Microsoft will be aiming for something swifter given that this is a new version of Windows that many folks will be keen to get. Typically, it can take a good three or four months for a Windows 10 update to really hit its stride in terms of being adopted widely, so we can tentatively anticipate a similar situation with Windows 11. This is the exact same approach that Microsoft uses with its big feature updates for Windows 10 which happen twice yearly (incidentally, we now know that Windows 11 will be different in that it’ll adopt a once-per-year cadence for feature updates, just as Apple does with macOS). Note the ‘if’ there: remember that your machine has to meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11, and as we’ve seen, there are some potentially thorny implications therein.Īt any rate, the long and short of it is that you may need to be one of the luckier folks to get Windows 11 off the bat in November or likely December 2021, with the majority of Windows 10 users getting the nod to upgrade as the rollout continues into early 2022 and onwards.
