    The USB drive was easy to use. Just plug it in and boot your computer. Windows 11 installed easily and fast too.

    I just purchased a new computer from Best Buy and I needed to have windows 11 on my computer. The folks at Best Buy put it on for me and it has been working perfectly. Thanks Best Buy!

    Installation was simple and easy. All i need to do is to plug in the usb and go into boot mode and select options and setup. It will also have the windows 11 key in a card separately. Windows 11 Pro is pricey though.

    This is an easy solution to get Windows 11 Pro installed. Highly recommended over buying a key from a reseller that may not be legitimate.

    This version of Windows have been pretty solid so far. Less issues than previous OS by Microsoft. I have to rock the Pro version for the additional features. Running from a thumb drive is also a lot better than discs. Kudos Microsoft.

    The usb delivery was flawless. The OS configured a new WD drive and installed--slowly-- without major problems. I b moderate use, it has worked as promised.Not happy about the price. Windows 11 pro is probably a good investment for anticipated features and CPUs.

    A Seamless Upgrade Experience

    I recently upgraded my system to Windows 11 Pro using the Microsoft Windows 11 Pro USB Flash Drive, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the process and the product. he Microsoft Windows 11 Pro USB Flash Drive is an outstanding solution for upgrading to or installing Windows 11 Pro. It delivers a reliable, efficient, and straightforward installation experience with the added benefit of being portable and easy to use. If you’re looking to upgrade to Windows 11 Pro or perform a clean installation, this USB flash drive is an excellent choice.

    When Microsoft.com's own store system crashes - and Best Buy provides ship product to door - can't beat that. Too bad its not "be there in 30mins or its free" - their shipping ETA missed it by an hour. <tease> Amazon's options where unpredictable - this option is solid and priced reasonably.

    Software install went well. I did not realize that an internet connection was needed for the install to proceed past a certain point. So I bought a long ethernet cable to run from the router in the living room to my office. I honestly have not noticed much of a difference between versions 11 and 10. Price was reasonable.

    I want sure I would like it, coming from Windows 10, but I do. It has all the tools and features I was used to plus a lot more. It is smoother and more refined. I think I'll be upgrading my other devices soon as well. (Free of course, this was for a new build)

    Expect "signup" options and limited real value

    Bought this for a nephew who built his own system. Installed very quickly. Downside was it expected signup for a Micro$oft account during installation and wanted to force enable secure boot. Required workaround to not signup or use features not needed. Value of this version over the Home is less compared to previous version if not being used in a business/office setup. Overall, works but the price for the OS is too high and not worth it for normal users.

    I needed to get another copy of Windows 11 Pro for a new computer system that I was building, but I've been a fan of Windows 10 and 11 for so many years. I find the OS to be very intuitive and stable and I truly like the fact that Microsoft pushes out incremental updates to improve the system and increase stability as time goes on.
