How to upgrade to Windows 11 from 10

Upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 is a straightforward process. Here are the steps you can follow:

  1. Check Compatibility:
    • First, ensure that your PC meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11. You can use Microsoft’s PC Health Check app to determine if your device is eligible for an upgrade.
  2. Windows Update:
    • If your PC is eligible, you can use Windows Update to upgrade from Windows 10 to Windows 11:
      • Open Settings.
      • Click on Update & Security.
      • Select Windows Update.
      • Click the Check for updates button.
      • If Windows 11 is available, click Download and install now.
  3. Manual Upgrade Options:
    • If Windows Update doesn’t offer the upgrade, you have a couple of manual options:
      • Installation Assistant:
        • Download the Windows 11 Installation Assistant from the official Microsoft website. This tool helps you upgrade your current PC to Windows 11.
      • Media Creation Tool:
        • Use the Windows Media Creation tool to create a bootable USB or DVD for a clean install of Windows 11. This is useful if you want to perform a fresh installation on a new or used PC.

Remember to back up your important files before upgrading, and enjoy the new features and improvements in Windows 11! 🎉
