The main part of this announcement is a significant user interface change. And a completely new design is great for that. Microsoft clearly needs a good reason to reverse its past claims and still ditch Windows 10 by introducing a new operating system number. Windows 11 will be available as a free upgrade to compatible Windows 10 devices through Windows Update. Announced on June 24, 2021, with an expected release in late 2021, Windows 11 is the successor to Windows 10, released in 2015. Windows 11 is a major release of the Windows NT operating system developed by Microsoft.
