Windows 11: Upgrade from Windows 10

Microsoft is expected to release Windows 11 in the second half of 2021, but before the company officially announces the new operating system, an early internal build (21996) has leaked online, giving us our first glimpse into the upgrade experience from Windows 10 to Windows 11. Check out this handy video to see how the upgrade process has been updated.

The Windows 11 upgrade process hasn't changed much since the operating system is based on the same core that's available on Windows 10. In other words, Windows 11 is Windows 10 with more features and a different skin.

If you use the Media Creation Tool, you'll still need to follow the same steps, except you won't have the option to upgrade or create an installation USB flash drive, although this could change with the official release. It will also give you the option to keep your files, settings, and apps during the Windows 10 upgrade process.
