Windows 11: Video first look - wilderuppoorning

Adam Patrick Murray/IDG

We've already downloaded and gone custody-along with a leaked early fles of Windows 11, or what appears to be Microsoft's future-multiplication in operation organisation. Now IT's time for you to see what the leaked Windows 11 build looks like in our video tour of Windows 11.

In the video, you'll see how the new, centralised Windows 11 Taskbar works, including the new icons that Microsoft has enclosed as part of Windows 11, too. There's also a new Set out fare that looks rather intemperately influenced by Microsoft's experiment with Windows 10X. (We don't show it in our video, simply thereis a way to return to the Windows 10 Start menu within Windows 11, complete with Hold up Tiles.)

We even destination the question of when Windows 11 will send on, which certainly fundament't be that far away, given that we've seen a leaked build of Windows 11 already. When you're done watching, you'll probably have a good idea of what Windows 10 users should know astir Windows 11, and the fundamental features that Microsoft is adding to its young operative system.

We'll have more coverage as Microsoft approaches it June 24 event next week, where it will formally establish "what's next for Windows". Hopefully we'll envision an official build before long after, and can start digging into Windows 11 in advance of its eventual set up. And there's one gripping piece of additional intelligence in that regard, overly: we've already been told that the leaked Windows 11 build that we'Ra display here is supposedly early and incomplete. On that point's likely more to come!
