    It Gets The Job Done

    It gets the job done. I tend to hang on to versions of windows as long as possible, and they weren't making it easy with my old windows 8.1 install. A new graphics card that was incompatible with 8.1 finally forced me to get Windows 11, and it's not bad.

    What we need to install for our new computer build operating system. Only issue was it required WiFi; however, that is not possible when building a new computer. You have to run the Ethernet cable to complete install, then you have WiFi.

    Windows 11 on usb

    windows 11 comes on a bootable usb drive. its more convenient having it already on the usb and not having to download it from microsoft. i read windows 11 works better for the intel 12th and 13th gen cores because of the thread director so if you plan to upgrade to 12th or 13th gen, get it. the ui is a bit different than windows 10, the 'start' button is more in the middle left of the taskbar instead of the left side.

    Was able to install on a Dell computer. Had to install Win Home first and then Win Pro. Think it was something to dod with the Dell and not wint Win Pro.

    WINDOWS 11 PRO - upgrade VS full version.

    The product itself is 5 STAR. My mistake was to buy the full version instead of an upgrade going from WINDOWS 11 to WINDOWS 11 PRO. It would NOT load and since the package was opened and being software could not be returned for a refund. After a few re-routes finally found a Microsoft HELP person who was able to resolve the issue and help me install the PRO version. Kudos to the Microsoft tech who was able to help. Bottom line - get the correct version, full or upgrade to avoid some excitement.

    Its great, the only thing i dont like about Windows 11, is the unability to move the task bar. It is stuck at the bottom of thw screen. Yes, you can auto hide it, but that is it. Other than that it is a great OS.

    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.

    No crashes so far. Automaticly loaded correct drivers on first try. Microsoft should have kept the OEM version for people who still build their own computers.
