Days before Microsoft's event, a Windows 11 build leaked online allowing us to install it on our system and take it for a test drive. The new update includes visual changes taken from Windows 10X.
We took the new Windows 11 leaked build 21996.1 for a test drive, and found a few small differences but largely an iterative build over Windows 10 Pro and in some cases no different at all.
We managed to get our hands on a copy of the leaked ISO and I can tell you, we stuck that in a virtual machine immediately. Install went as expected, really quick, and so far it's all familiar.
Minutes after supposed screenshots of Windows 11 were leaked, an ISO for build 21996.1 has also made it to the web, letting users install the next major Windows version on their PCs to try out.
