Microsoft's decision to discontinue support for Windows 10 has prompted many users to consider transitioning to a newer operating system, despite the cost of acquiring Windows 11 licenses often serving as a deterrent. With the holiday season approaching, opportunities for savings on such software have become more accessible.
Black Friday promotions are now live at the PCWorld Software Store, offering a lifetime license for Windows 11 Pro at a reduced price of $70, down from the original $200—a savings of 65%. This limited-time offer concludes on December 1.
For those planning to purchase a new mini PC, laptop, or desktop during the Black Friday period, or needing an updated Windows 11 Pro installation on an existing machine, this promotion from the PCWorld Software Store presents a valuable opportunity not to be overlooked.
Each license covers installation on one PC only, requiring separate purchases for additional devices. Once activated, the license remains valid indefinitely without renewal fees, though it will eventually face an end to official support from Microsoft.
In addition to the standard features found in Windows 11 Home, the Pro edition includes enhanced business-oriented capabilities such as robust data encryption, sandboxing for improved security, remote desktop access, and support for virtual machines. This discounted option provides an affordable way to obtain these tools before the promotion ends.
