Microsoft is encouraging users to transition from Windows 10 to Windows 11, which currently holds a market share of 38% compared to Windows 10's nearly 60%. In February 2024, Microsoft launched a promotional campaign to highlight the benefits of Windows 11, and by June, it aimed to dispel myths about the new operating system. The company emphasized security features, particularly the Smart App Control feature in Windows 11, which helps protect against potentially unwanted applications (PUAs). The updated support page for Windows 11 includes recommendations such as downloading apps from trusted sources, using updated antivirus software, and keeping devices up-to-date. Smart App Control requires a clean installation of Windows 11, and users upgrading from Windows 10 must perform a reset, as an in-place upgrade is not sufficient.

Microsoft is encouraging users to upgrade to Windows 11, highlighting the gaming features they would miss by staying on Windows 10. Benefits of Windows 11 include DirectStorage for faster load times, Auto HDR for enhanced visuals, and improved gaming performance. Windows 10 is nearing its end of support next year, which will result in a lack of security and quality updates. Many older systems are incompatible with Windows 11 due to stringent eligibility requirements, and Microsoft recommends that users with ineligible PCs invest in new hardware. Despite the advantages, the rollout of the latest feature update, version 24H2, has been temporarily halted due to issues with Ubisoft titles and Auto HDR functionality. Microsoft has also produced advertisements and articles to encourage users to upgrade and address misconceptions about the process.
