Today, Microsoft announced the next phase of delivering Windows 11 to more customers as it embarks on the big transition away from Windows 10. When Microsoft launched Windows 11 earlier this month, the company focused on delivering the operating system to two specific groups. The first group was brand new PCs shipping with Windows 11 preinstalled. The second group included new Windows 10 PCs eligible to receive the Windows 11 upgrade from Microsoft.
Starting this week, the company is taking advantage of its “latest generation machine learning model” to “offer the upgrade to an expanded set of eligible devices.” Microsoft goes on to state, “We recommend that you upgrade your devices to Windows 11 to take advantage of the latest features and advanced protections from security threats.”
“If you have an eligible device, open Windows Update Settings and select Check for updates,” Microsoft added. “Once the upgrade is ready for your device, you will see the option to download and install.”
And if you don’t want to wait around for Microsoft to deliver Windows 11 to you automatically, you can take matters into your own hands by upgrading using our handy how-to guide.
