Microsoft is going to show off what's next for Windows during an event at 8:30 pm IST on June 24.
The Windows 11 update is anticipated to be free for all Windows 10 users.
Of course, like any significant update to Windows (up until now, twice a year), users can postpone installing the OS. How long Microsoft will let users do that won't be known until later. You can see how the system currently works for postponing Windows 10 updates. We expect something similar for Windows 11, and it may be even more lenient.
We are also hearing that there will be a general Windows 10 21H2 release, implying Microsoft will let some stick with Windows 10 for a more extended period before jumping to the new OS. Again, how long that will last and how long Windows 10 will be supported (right now, through October 2025) remains to be seen.
