TL;DR: As of October 12, you can get Windows 11 Pro software for just $29.97 instead of $199 — that's a savings of 84%.
Upgrading your operating system is a great way of renewing your computer with improved security and a nicer interface. The only problem is the price. Some computers can upgrade to Windows 11 for free, but if you want 11 Pro, it can get pretty expensive. That is, unless you get it while it’s on sale. If you want to upgrade your computer to Windows 11 Pro, you only have until the end of the day on October 15 to do it for $29.97, otherwise the price jumps back up.
What does Windows 11 Pro do?
If you’re used to Windows 10, there’s a lot to explore with 11 Pro. A lot of these upgrades are security-based, so you can take advantage of things like Bitlocker encryption, wake and lock, and support for biometric login. These especially could be great for professionals because it means you can lock your data down tight, walk away from your computer safely without fully logging out, and login using your fingerprint. Keep in mind, biometrics only work on computers with hardware that supports it. As cool as it would be, Windows 11 Pro won’t install a fingerprint scanner on your computer.
Some of the other fun features to look out for are a refined user interface, snap layouts, widgets, better integration for Microsoft Teams, and there’s even improved touchscreen support.
Important: before you buy, make sure your computer can actually support 11 Pro. Check all hardware specifications, and keep in mind that if your computer is running Windows 10 and can’t use Windows Update to upgrade to Windows 11, 11 Pro isn’t going to work either.
