What are the new features?
In File Explorer, the icons are now smaller and have a nicer look. There is a mute button to mute the microphone centrally for all applications. This is handy if you are taking part in a video conference and possibly have several apps open - then the microphone is muted centrally. Another new Windows 11 Pro feature is that if you are working with external monitors on your laptop or if you have two monitors connected to your desktop computer, applications will reopen exactly where they were before shutting down or exiting. This is also a significant improvement over Windows 10.
The right Variant for companies
Companies need operating systems that are powerful and modern. With Windows 11 Enterprise they benefit from greater speed and more structure, making work easier and more efficient. Windows 11 Enterprise N offers unique performance with high productivity in day-to-day operations. With a focus on speed and storage space, 11 Enterprise Windows 11 Pro for Workstation takes collaboration around operations to a higher level. With Windows 11 Pro N you do not need a local account and are therefore always flexible. This means you can install the new Windows even without the Internet.
The right Variant for teachers, pupils and students
Windows 11 Education is a technically modern and secure version of Windows 11 that also guarantees educational institutions a solid basis. You do not have to purchase individual licenses for each student. Windows 11 Education N also offers pupils and students full licenses and access to numerous functions and updates.
Installing Android apps with Windows 11 Pro - what are the benefits?
You can switch between your cell phone and your desktop, because then you can install apps that you know from Android phones on Windows. Some apps are only available for Android, but not for Windows. So it's a practical matter. There's just one catch: iPhone users, i.e. the Apple world, don't benefit from this, because Apple keeps switching off its apps and hiding them behind an artificial wall in its app store, so to speak.
Important note:
Windows 10 and Windows 11 Pro continue to run in parallel. Windows 10 will be supported until October 2025. This is probably also due to the fact that Windows 11 Pro increases the hardware requirements. If your system is not suitable for Windows 11 Pro, you still have some Years time. Even if you don't like the look of Windows 11 Pro, you can simply stick with Windows 10.
