Upgrade availability is rolling out in stages.  Your computer may not be in a roll out stage yet but could be in the future.  You can see which computer models are supported at our Windows 11 Support page. 
  1. If using a laptop, make sure power adapter is plugged in. The upgrade will not run on battery power.
  2. Click Start (or press key).
  3. Click Software Center.
  4. Click Operating Systems.
  5. Click Windows 11 Upgrade-22H2.
    Note: If this upgrade option is not shown, your computer does not meet the minimum requirements or has not yet been deemed eligible (see note above). For more information about your particular system, please fill out an online request.
  6. Click Install.
    Note: You will receive a prompt to confirm the upgrade, that it will take time, restarts will be required, and that your data and applications will migrate.  Please click Install to proceed.
