TL;DR: Windows 11 Pro is only $10 through October 4.
Windows 10 is over 10 years old, and it really shows. Windows 11 Home is a solid upgrade, but it has its limitations. That’s why it’s worth it to jump straight to Windows 11 Pro, especially now that it’s only $10 (reg. $199) through October 4.
Windows 11 Pro does everything 11 Home can do, with a few useful extras. BitLocker encrypts your entire drive, so files on a lost or stolen laptop are still protected. Developers and IT workers get Hyper-V for running virtual machines, along with Windows Sandbox for testing apps in an isolated space that can’t affect the main system. Azure AD support lets the PC join business networks and use Microsoft’s identity management platform.
All of the standard Windows 11 features carry over to Pro, including Snap layouts, DirectX 12 Ultimate for gaming, and biometric sign-in backed by TPM 2.0. Copilot also appears in the taskbar for answering questions, summarizing pages, and writing code.
Give your computer an upgrade that’s worth it.
Through October 4 at 11:59 p.m. PT, it’s only $9.97 to get Windows 11 Pro.
