Microsoft Launches New Video to Promote Windows 11 Upgrade

Critics question the effectiveness of highlighting the Start Menu as a key feature.

  • Microsoft's latest attempt to encourage Windows 10 users to upgrade to Windows 11 involves a YouTube video highlighting the new Start Menu.
  • Critics argue the video's focus on the Start Menu as a 'game changer' misses the mark, with many considering it a downgrade.
  • The video glosses over Windows 11's stringent hardware requirements, which could prevent many users from upgrading.
  • Despite efforts, Windows 11's adoption rate remains slow, with Windows 10 still dominating the desktop OS market share.
  • Experts suggest Microsoft should instead highlight Windows 11's features like Android app integration, gaming improvements, and AI functionality.
