Windows 11 is now available and will be deployed on millions of PCs worldwide. But, as with any new operating system rollout, it won't happen overnight, and many Windows users will be waiting a while for that magical upgrade notice to appear. Don't want to wait? You don't have to, you can, with just a little effort, download and install the new version of Windows right now.
Keep in mind, however, that unlike previous versions of Windows, you may not be prompted to install Windows 11 if your machine is not considered to meet its standards. That doesn't mean you can't install the new OS – Microsoft said if you have an older machine you'll be able to access Windows 11, but you'll need to download a Windows 11 ISO file and install the OS. manually. (However, you may not get automatic updates - you may need to install a new ISO each time.)
Now that the update is rolling out, you can check if it has arrived on your computer by going to "Settings"> "Windows Update". If you haven't gotten the upgrade yet and want to see if your machine is considered good enough for Windows 11, you can download Microsoft's PC Health app (Click here), which should tell you if your machine is eligible.
If so and you don't want to wait, here's how to install Windows 11:
