Microsoft: Windows 11 is now available for all compatible devices

According to Microsoft, Windows 11 is suitable for ‘broad deployment’, with which the company indicates that the operating system is available for all compatible devices. The operating system has been officially available since October 5.

Until this week, Windows 11 was distributed in phases by Microsoft. Users automatically received a pop-up informing them that they could update. That update could also be started manually if users wanted to wait. Since Tuesday eight Microsoft however, the operating system is suitable for broad deployment.

The company says that the Windows version is stable enough to be installed on all compatible devices. With that, more, if not all, compatible Windows 10 devices will likely be notified to update starting this week.

Microsoft released Windows 11 on October 5. This operating system has a modified appearance with, for example, rounded screen corners instead of the hard corners of Windows 10 and supports Android apps. This feature is currently only available in beta.

Not all Windows 10 devices are compatible with Windows 11. For example, the new Windows version requires TPM 2.0 and at least a Ryzen 2000 or eighth generation Intel Core processor. Microsoft previously expressed the expectation that all compatible devices could be upgraded by mid-2022.
