Download Windows 11 ISO Files

Yes, there’s an option to download & install Windows 11 without the ISO files, but it will require enrolling your device in Windows Insider Program. Once enrolled, you will only receive the Beta, Dev, and Release Preview builds of Windows 11.

The builds released on Windows Insider Programs have bugs that can ruin your PC experience. Hence, it’s best to download a stable version of the Windows 11 ISO file and perform a fresh installation.

We have already shared a detailed guide on downloading Windows 11 ISO Files. We have listed all possible methods to get the latest version of Windows 11 ISO in that guide. So, go through that article and download the Windows 11 ISO files first.

How to Install Windows 11 on PC/Laptop

After downloading the Windows 11 ISO files, you must follow these steps to install Windows 11 on a PC/Laptop.

Important: It’s best to create a proper backup of all important files before installing Windows 11. Performing a fresh installation will remove all files and will wipe the disk partitions. So, you won’t have any chance for data recovery.

Creating a Bootable USB Drive

First of all, you would need to create an installation media. Then, if you have a pen drive, you can flash Windows 11 into it. Follow the steps below to create a bootable USB drive for Windows 11.

• First of all, download & install Rufus on your Windows 10 PC. Next, open the Rufus application.
• Click on the ‘Select‘ button and locate the Windows 11 ISO file you downloaded.

• Once done, click on the ‘Start button.

If you want to install Windows 11 on an incompatible device, follow our guide – How to Create a Bootable USB to Bypass Windows 11 Restrictions.

How to Bypass Minimum System Requirements for Windows 11

Windows 11 needs TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot for installation. If your PC doesn’t meet the minimum system requirements, you must follow our guide – Install Windows 11 on Unsupported PCs.

If your PC supports it, you can manually enable TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot on your device to install Windows 11.

Installing Windows 11 on a PC/Laptop

After creating a Bootable USB drive, you must follow some simple steps below to install Windows 11. The process will be quite lengthy, so follow the steps carefully.

1. First, restart your computer and press the Boot key continuously. The boot key is usually F8, F9, Esc, F12, F10, Delete, etc.

2. Select Boot from USB Drive or the USB Hard Drive option on the Boot screen.

3. Now, the Windows 11 Installation wizard will start. First, you need to set the language, time, and keyboard. Once done, click on the Next button.

4. On the next page, click on the Install Now option.

5. Next, click on the I don’t have a product key. Then, on the next page, select Windows 11 edition.

6. On the next screen, click on the Custom option.

7. On the next page, you will be asked to select the partition. Select the Partition where you want to install Windows 11 and click on the Next button.

8. Now, wait until Windows 11 finishes the installation process.

9. Once completed, your PC will restart. After the restart, you will see Windows 11 setup screen. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the setup process.

10. Once completed, Windows 11 will take a few minutes to make your selected changes.

Once done, Windows 11 will be live on your PC. That’s it! You are done. This is how you can download & install Windows 11 right now.

Install Windows 11 Without ISO Files

If you don’t want to perform a clean installation, you need to join the Windows Insider Program and upgrade your existing Windows 10 to Windows 11.

This is a lengthy process, and it requires an active Microsoft Account. Previously, we shared a step-by-step guide on installing Windows 11 Beta on a PC. Check out the guide to enroll in the Windows Insider Program and receive the Windows 11 Upgrade.

After installing Windows 11, you will have 15 days to roll back to Windows 10. So, if you face problems with the beta builds of Windows 11, make sure to downgrade it before the time ends.

How to get the Windows 11 2022 Update

Today, Panos Panay announced the release and availability of the Windows 11 2022 Update, the latest version of Windows 11. Windows is a key component of how more than a billion people connect, learn, play and work. In this blog I’ll share how to get the 2022 Update (also known as Windows 11, version 22H2 1 ), details on our approach to delivering continuous innovation including improvements to the update experience, and information for commercial and education customers.

How to get the update

Starting today, the first major update to Windows 11 is now available for users who want to update. Our launch approach to Windows 11 leverages our well-established update systems and processes. The measured and phased rollout will offer the update via Windows Update when data shows that your device is ready, as our objective is to provide a quality update experience. We will initially ramp up the offering availability in the first weeks as we monitor quality signals. If we detect that your device may have an issue, such as an application incompatibility, we may put a safeguard hold in place and not offer the update until that issue is resolved. To learn more about the status of the Windows 11 rollout, safeguard holds and which holds may be applied to your device, visit Windows release health. Learn more about the ways to install Windows 11.

Windows 11 devices

Users with eligible devices running Windows 11, version 21H2 who are interested in experiencing the latest feature update and are ready to install this release on their device can choose to do so by opening Windows Update settings (Settings > Windows Update) and selecting Check for updates 2 . For more information on the 2022 Update experience for Windows 11 devices, watch this video.

Windows 10 devices

If you are running Windows 10 today, you can check to see if your device is eligible (i.e., meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11) to upgrade using the PC Health Check app. You can then check to see if Windows 11, version 22H2 is ready for your specific device by opening Windows Update settings (Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update) and selecting Check for updates 3,4 . If your device is eligible and the upgrade is ready, the option to download and install will appear: If you are ready to install Windows 11, simply select Download and install 5,6 . For more information on the Windows 11 upgrade experience for Window 10 devices, watch this video.

Delivering continuous innovation and value

Our delivery approach leverages the well-established feature and monthly security update systems and processes used for the +1.4 billion Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices we have shipped and serviced over the past six years. Windows 11 will continue to have an annual feature update cadence, released in the second half of the calendar year that marks the start of the support lifecycle, with 24 months of support for Home and Pro editions and 36 months of support for Enterprise and Education editions.

We are committed to delivering continuous innovation by releasing new features into Windows 11 with increased frequency via our servicing technology (like a monthly update) and Microsoft Store updates, in addition to our annual update process. Our goal is to provide you with the best experiences year-round, when new features are ready based on quality and reliability, via our familiar processes. Today we are also announcing that a new set of experiences including the Tabbed File explorer, considered a component of the 2022 Update for all editions, will be ready this October. We will share more information and documentation when we initially make these features available. We plan a phased rollout timed with the October optional non-security preview release for these features and then they will be made broadly available in the November 2022 security update release 7 . Going forward we will continue to announce, document and deliver new features and experiences when they are ready (learn more).

We have listened to feedback on the overall Windows Update experience and are excited to announce two substantial improvements to the update experience for both feature and monthly updates for the Windows 11 2022 Update.

• Smaller and faster installation of updates: We have significantly reduced the download size of feature updates, by ~450MB for many users. We’ve also reduced download and installation time of the monthly cumulative update, as well as reclaimed hundreds of megabytes of disk footprint to give back to the user. Learn more about these improvements.
• Windows Update and carbon awareness: Windows will try to schedule update installations at specific times of day when doing so may result in lower carbon emissions. Many electrical grids are powered by multiple sources, including renewables and fossil fuels. When available, Windows 11 will now prioritize installing updates in the background at times when greater amounts of clean energy sources (like wind, solar and hydro) are available (find out more in this article).

Information for commercial and education customers

Windows 11 is built on the consistent, compatible and familiar Windows 10 foundation you know, and it was designed for hybrid workforces. You can plan for, prepare and deploy Windows 11 alongside Windows 10 using the same processes, policies and management applications. For new information about the latest features for commercial organizations in Windows 11, version 22H2, see our latest Commercial blog.

We recommend IT administrators begin targeted deployments now as part of their regular Windows Update motion. For the latest resources and tools, check out our post on Tools to support Windows 11 deployment. In addition, to help make Windows 11 deployment easier, we encourage you to leverage the built in Windows 11 Readiness report in Microsoft Endpoint Manager and/or Endpoint Analytics to help identify eligible devices that meet the Windows 11 minimum system requirements for an upgrade.

Windows 11, version 22H2 is available through familiar channels and processes including Windows Server Update Services (WSUS), Windows Update for Business and the Volume Licensing Service Center (VLSC) 8 for phased deployment using Microsoft Endpoint Manager or other endpoint management solutions. September 20, 2022 marks the start of the 36 months of servicing support lifecycle for Enterprise and Education editions of Windows 11, version 22H2.

Experience the latest innovation in the Windows 11 2022 Update

We all need the latest technology to keep pace with working, learning, connecting and playing, and installing the 2022 Update is the best way you can keep your Windows device protected and productive. This also enables your device to receive the continuous innovation we will deliver over the next year with the 2022 Update.

As I have previously noted, for customers who are using a device that is not eligible for Windows 11, Windows 10 is a great place to be. Windows 10 will be serviced through Oct. 14, 2025 and we have announced that the next feature update to Windows 10, version 22H2, is coming next month, continuing to offer you both support and choice with Windows. As in the past, we will closely monitor the rollout of Windows 11 and continue to share timely information on the status of the rollout and known issues (open and resolved) across all Windows feature and monthly updates via the Windows release health dashboard and @WindowsUpdate. Please continue to tell us about your experience by providing comments or suggestions via Feedback Hub.
