Windows 11 is the latest operating system from Microsoft, and it makes some subtle, yet impactful, improvements to the iconic OS. The license typically costs $139 when purchased directly through Microsoft, but a new deal lets you snag Windows 11 Pro for just $40.

That’s an impressive price cut, but not everyone will be eligible for the savings. Specifically, this purchase is designed for “PCs that need a new license for Windows and meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11.” If you need help checking your specs, you can verify your compatibility here.

It's worth noting that if you already have an active Windows 10 license, you should be able to upgrade for free. This deal could be useful for you if you're looking to build your own computer or want to install Windows on a compatible device that doesn't currently have it.

Once you’ve verified your computer will support Windows 11, you’ll have 30 days to redeem your code after purchase. One key can be used for up to three devices, and you’ll be granted lifetime access to Windows 11 Pro. And you can shop with confidence knowing the key is provided by an authorized Microsoft Partner.

Windows 11 makes a few big changes to the operating system, with a simple new UI, enhanced security features, and the ability to create custom layouts to enhance your productivity. Here’s a look at some of the features that are included with your purchase:

This deal won’t stick around long, so if you’re looking to upgrade your OS, be sure to check it out while you can. And while you’re shopping, it might be worth pairing Windows 11 with Microsoft Office. You can get Microsoft Office 2021 for only $40 right now.
