Microsoft start suggesting Windows 11 to Win10 22H2 users via OOBE

News on December fifth, since Microsoft sent off Windows 11 last year, has been dynamic in pushing client updates. Microsoft announced in May of this year that Windows 11 was ready for widespread deployment.

The company has been encouraging users of Windows 10 21H1 to upgrade to Win11 for the version that is about to be discontinued. Microsoft even encourages Windows 8.1 users to upgrade to a new computer to take advantage of Windows 11.

The company has recently launched a more radical Win11 recommendation strategy, according to some foreign media. On the Windows Out of the Box Experience (OOBE) interface of Windows 10 22H2, for instance, the Windows 11 recommendation option was present. It can be started from the beginning or upgraded to Win11 in one go following a significant update.
