The launch of the next big Windows update is the talk of the town in 2021, even from before Microsoft unveiled details about its new features in the month of June. And here we are in August with Microsoft releasing the first ISO files available for the Windows 11 Insider Preview program. In other words, by joining in the program, you get to experience the next major Windows version yourself and even offer feedback to actively contribute to the way the future Windows is shaped. How cool is that?

While the final version of Windows 11 is expected to be released in the fall of this year or early next, the Insider preview release – targeted at Windows fans and experts who understand the risks involved in downloading unfinished software – is now available today.
