Windows 11 release date may be in October, Microsoft drops a big hint

India Today  

Although it announced the release slated for the holiday season, it seems Microsoft dropped a big hint at an October release of Windows 11. And the biggest hint was the Microsoft Teams message -- as a part of the presentation -- saying “excited to turn it up to 11 can’t wait for October!” And to give more clarity, most of Microsoft’s press images for Windows 11 show the release could happen on October 20. The Verge has said in a report, citing sources familiar with Microsoft’s plans, that the Windows 11 release could happen in October. On its website, Walmart says that several laptops that are currently on sale through its platform come with a promise of “free Upgrade to Windows October 2021 when available” and that Microsoft has promised to deliver Windows 11 as “a free upgrade for eligible Windows 10 PCs and new PCs beginning this holiday.” October is most likely going to be when Microsoft will begin rolling out Windows 11 to everyone.
