Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hey, as we have started receiving official windows 10-11 update, I would like to know about these, given my laptop meets the minimum requirement:

  1.  Is it safe to update to windows 11 ?
  2.  Will I lose my pre-installed (activated) copy of  MS Office ?
  3. Will it effect the performance of my laptop ?

Or else, should I just wait ?

You are mistaken -- there is no official Windows 11 update -- as it is still in Beta and is not scheduled to be released until the end of October this year.

 

It is currently available only to Insiders -- and we here do not provide this support -- but I will provide my own answers to your questions:

1) Safe to update -- NO, this is a Beta version, is prone to crashes and is likely to change every week

2) Lose MS office -- probably not -- but not safe to update at this time

3) This is a Beta -- so there is no real way to know if the Released version is going to behave the same or not
