Windows Operating System Upgrade

Windows Operating System Upgrade offers provide an upgrade to Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC 2024 from the following operating systems: 

• Windows 10 Pro
• Windows 8 Enterprise or Pro
• Windows 7 Enterprise, Professional, or Ultimate
• Windows Vista Enterprise, Business, or Ultimate
• Windows XP Professional or Tablet PC
• Windows 2000 Professional
• Windows NT Workstation 4.0

NOTE: For Windows Home Edition, you can only use a Windows Pro Full Operating System offer to replace that operating system.

Windows Pro Full Operating System

Windows Pro Full Operating System offers provide the full version of Windows 11 Pro. To use these offers, your computer must already have some kind of operating system previously installed. However, it does not need to be a licensed Windows operating system. 

Please note, installing Windows Pro Full Operating System will replace the computer’s existing operating system. Replacing an operating system is more complicated than upgrading an operating system.
