Though the rollout would start later this year
Windows 11 will be offered as a free upgrade to eligible Windows 10 devices, and Microsoft originally said in a statement that the first computers would receive the new operating system in the last months of 2021. On the official Windows 11 page, however, Microsoft explains that most computers that are eligible for this free upgrade will actually get it in early 2022, explaining that the company is still working on all the specifics and additional information would be unveiled at a later time. Microsoft explains that the free Windows 11 upgrade will show up on Windows Update gradually for Windows 10 devices, as the company embraces the same approach as in the case of Windows 10 feature updates.
