Why Windows 11's Big 2022 Update Is Worth Downloading

Microsoft gave Windows 11 a major update. Released on Tuesday, the first big update to the operating system can now be downloaded to your laptop or desktop. 

You may be wondering, though, should you install the upgrade? With all the new security, productivity, accessibility and gaming features, the answer is likely yes.

The operating system is fast approaching its first anniversary in early October. At launch, the new operating system brought dozens of new features to life,

including a redesigned interface, widgets, a more accessible Microsoft Teams experience, multiple desktops and Snap Layouts and Groups, as well as Android apps.

The new Windows 11 update adds a faster, more accurate search to the Start menu, Quick Settings, as well as better local and current events coverage on your Widgets board.

In October, Windows 11 will get a long-requested feature -- tabs in File Explorer.
