Enjoy a Microsoft Windows 11 Pro Subscription for Just $18 for Black Friday

While Black Friday deals aren’t coming into full effect until next week, there are plenty of sales already kicking in. You can grab just about anything right now for less, including Microsoft Windows, which is a great operating system normally, but even better if you get the Pro version of it. When it’s not on sale it costs nearly $200, but thanks to a big discount on StackSocial, you can get it for just $18 right now. If you’d rather just get the Windows 11 Home OS, then that’s also down to $18

Although this is an excellent deal, it’s important to note that not every computer can run Windows 11, so before you buy it, ensure that your machine meets the requirements for the operating system. If you have a PC that’s already running Windows 10 and Windows Update doesn’t let you install the free Windows 11 upgrade, your computer won’t be compatible with this version.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

After you’ve bought the license, you’ll get an activation key that you can use to install and activate Windows 11 Pro on one computer. You’ll then have 30 days to redeem your download code before it expires. 

If you’re doing a standard upgrade from an older version of Windows, the download and install process is pretty straightforward. For advanced users — folks who are building a new computer or who want to dual-boot an existing computer with a second OS — there will be some extra steps involved. In those cases, you might need a second PC to access and download the files, so be sure you can access everything from another computer in your home or that you have a friend’s machine you can use temporarily. Also, note that you’ll want to have a USB thumb drive available to transfer the file.

If you’re happy you’ve saved money on a sensible upgrade to your PC, then why not turn your eyes to our toys gift guide and spend money on something a little less sensible?

Will Windows 11 Pro go on sale again this year?

StackSocial does put things on sale fairly often, but there’s still no way of knowing when that’ll happen. While it’s possible that this goes on sale again this year, we’re running out of weeks, which means it’s becoming less likely by the day. If you want to upgrade you’d be better off going for it now than waiting, if you can afford it.
