    I purchased the Pro version to ensure all of the hardware was supported on the new CPU and in case I wanted to exceed 128GB of RAM. USB stick feels super cheap, but worked without any issue.

    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.

    Not much to say about an OS besides if you are a windows user this will meet your expectations. I normally get the disc versions of windows when i’m doing a new build but usually end up buying an external cd drive. The usb was way easier and didn’t take any longer to setup. Windows 11 pro has been solid so far, no major issues that I’ve ran into.

    I heard this flash drive with the code (key) that comes with are unlimited uses but only one user/pc at the time. Bc of that the price should be lower but overall Highly recommend the home version if you just want it for regular gaming or personal use

    I bought a copy of Windows 10 on USB almost ten years ago and I am glad I can still buy the new Windows 11 on USB. While I won’t speak to the OS itself this particular version of the product is super convenient since you get a ready to go USB installer with your product key on a nice card, I am still big on having things like the product key exist physically somwhere over digitally so you can always acess it

    I needed a good platform to install VMWare workstation (a bare-metal hypervisor). I wanted something quick to install. Windows 11 is a big improvement over Windows 10, many more features!

    Cool to have. Was pleased when I found the usb version. Doesn't look cheap either. Like the look of Windows 11, Doesn't confuse me. Very simple flow that doesn't use a lot of my resources. I have 32gb of ram so, my system moves just fine under load. I would recommend this product to someone. I've have this product for a few weeks now and my edge is AWESOME. Run some powerschell commands and you should be set.

    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.

    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.
