How To Upgrade To Windows 11 – Windows users can now for free and legally upgrade their software from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Microsoft has started offering the latest free Windows upgrade on new computer devices that are still using Windows 10.
But before doing so, users must pay attention to the specifications that are eligible to be upgraded, namely, the device must be compatible with Windows 11.

In addition, users can also check the specifications on the computer device directly. At least the laptop is equipped with an Intel 8th Gen Coffee Lake or Zen 2 CPU and the latest, TPM 2.0 (Trusted Platform Module) support, 4GB RAM, and 64GB storage.
These requirements make millions of PCs unable to upgrade their OS to Windows 11.
Microsoft is also making improvements gradually with the release of Windows 11, so free upgrades won’t be offered to all PCs that are compatible. However, according to Microsoft, starting in mid-2022, all PCs marketed and eligible, must have Windows 11.
Here’s how to get Windows 11, if your PC is compatible and still has Windows 10 installed and is also a device that’s allowed to upgrade to Windows 11. Follow these steps:
- To be sure, try to check if your PC is officially supported via the Microsoft Health Check PC app.
- Back up all your important documents, applications, and data.
- On your Windows 10 PC, go to Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
- Check for Windows OS updates.
- If a free Windows 11 update is available, you will see an option to download and install it.
- Click download and install.
- And lastly, follow the on-screen instructions and configure Windows 11 settings. If you don’t see a free upgrade option to
Windows 11, but your computer is already specs-compliant, then you should probably stop using Microsoft’s new Installation Assistant.
