Windows 11 is a major release of Microsoft's desktop operating system. It
mainly emphasizes the revamped user interface. Windows 11 is expected to be
fully released in late 2021. The new OS will be a free upgrade for existing
Windows 10 devices, though it has a few new hardware requirements such as
TPM 2.0 (trusted platform module).
