How to get the update for Windows 11
The easiest way to get Windows 11 is to wait for the Windows Update notification that will let us know when the new software version is available for our PC. Windows 10 users will be able to access a message like the one we see in the image above and it will invite us to install Windows 11.
However, many users want to try the new version of the system right away, so for those, we leave some tips below.
First, before updating, we advise the reader to check if the device used is already compatible with Windows 11. To do this, simply download the application computer health check (Portuguese “Check PC Operating Status”), where we are given the ability to check compatibility between our hardware and new Microsoft software.
Then, if the computer is already compatible, the user must download the Windows 11 installation wizard through it from this link. Before opening the installation wizard, we advise the reader to always make a system backup and save all work that is currently being done before starting the installation.
And after all the works and files are properly protected, you just have to open the installation wizard and follow the given steps for the installation to be done automatically, without any difficulty for the user, and you just have to wait for the process to be completed. Reboot the system so you can enjoy the new features of Windows 11.
