The editors didn't like
Windows 11 is more consistent and unified than Windows 8 or Windows 10

Refreshed Start menu, Fluent Design is a welcome change, Paint, Snipping Tool are finally updated, Widgets work great, At last, Microsoft Store is usable

The question professional users and IT managers will be chewing over during the next few months is whether there's enough here to justify the hassle of the upgrade. Windows 10 is going nowhere – Microsoft has promised support until at least 2025 – so ther...
Abstract: Windows 11 will have new touch gestures, Start menu folders, a rebuilt Task Manager, and a slew of other enhancements. A new release of Windows 11 is now available for testers, and it's packed with new features that appear to dramatically improve Windows...

Abstract: Windows 11 offers a range of UI and quality-of-life changes, but Microsoft also claims it's the best Windows OS yet for PC gaming. Part of this is the integration of certain gaming-centric options into the Windows settings. Another is the baked-in Xbox Ga...
