<p>You can now download the Windows 11 ISO file as a beta release for your computer. Succeeding Windows 10, Windows 11 is a blend of the best Microsoft ever presented to its customer base.

<p>Similar to Windows 10, several websites host the Windows 11 ISO File, but most of them have modified versions and like the recently leaked pre-launch version of the OS.

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After a long wait, Microsoft has yet released another Windows 10 update remarked as an October 2018 Update unveiled on the 2nd day of the month. Much more like your PC may not automatically install this update for a few weeks. You can actually download it now to get the latest features immediately without any updates required but instead through a clean installation.</p>
<h2>A Feature breakdown in Windows 10’s October 2018 Update</h2>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-367845" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/ximg_5bae6851590a5.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.wG6CA2hlP5.png" alt=""></p>
<p>Windows 10’s October 2018 Update was codenamed Redstone 5 during the Insider Preview development process and is also known as Windows 10 version/build 1809. It focuses on features you might actually use. However, There’s no new Paint 3D-style app here</p>
<p>This latest Windows 10 update includes a &#8220;Your Phone&#8221; app that lets you text from your PC and instantly access photos from your phone on your PC, assuming you’re using an Android phone without battling up with apps like Xender. Although Fewer features are available to iPhone users, the “Continue on PC” feature will let you quickly send links from an Android phone or iPhone to your PC as much as notification syncing from Android phones to PCs is on a coming soon status</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-367844" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/ximg_5bae68462ab9b.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.cHWZga1C9M.png" alt=""></p>
<p>Microsoft has also added a new clipboard history feature you can access via the Windows+V shortcut. This clipboard history feature is able to sync between all your PCs, and will one day sync to the SwiftKey keyboard on your phone for easy copy and pasting</p>
<p>Unfortunately, the “Sets” feature that added tabs to every application on your system was removed from the final update and has been delayed and we expect it to appear in Windows 10’s next update.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-361943" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/08/file-explorer-dark-theme-from-microsoft-cropped.gif.pagespeed.ce.7g4iCRaxF3.gif" alt="file explorer dark theme from microsoft" width="650" height="385"></p>
<p>File Explorer now includes a dark theme, the touch keyboard is now “powered by SwiftKey,” and the new Snip &amp; Sketch tool makes it easier to capture and annotate screenshots.</p>
<h3>Even more features piled up in the Windows 10 october build</h3>
<p>Under the hood, you’ll find easier HDR setup and mobile broadband improvements, power usage details for processes in the Task Manager, a quick slider to make all the text bigger on your screen, and better controls while projecting your screen wirelessly.</p>
<p>Microsoft has even made a lot of improvements to Notepad, which can now handle UNIX-style line endings. Geeks will appreciate new keyboard shortcuts for copy and paste in the Windows Subsystem for Linux, and the ability to quickly launch a Linux shell directly from File Explorer.</p>
<p>Those are just a few of the many, many improvements and changes you’ll find in this update. Check out our in-depth look at everything new in Windows 10’s October 2018 Update for more details.</p>
<h2>How to install windows 10’s October 2018 Update</h2>
<p>To get the update, just head to Settings &gt; Update &amp; Security &gt; Windows Update on your PC. Click the “Check for Updates” button here.</p>
<p>Here’s how this works: Microsoft slowly rolls these updates out, and Windows 10 normally waits at least a few weeks before installing them. But, if you click this button, Windows 10 knows that you want the update right now, and your PC will find and install it.</p>
<p>This windows 10 update may not be available to everyone immediately, so check back later today if it doesn&#8217;t download after you click the button.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="aligncenter wp-image-367836 size-full" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/ximg_5bae641e0eeb5.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.ntsgIzIi8G.png" alt="" width="650" height="357"></p>
<p>If this doesn’t work, you can also download and run Microsoft’s Windows 10 update assistant. Visit the <a href="https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows10" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Download Windows 10 page</a> and click the “Update Now” button to download the assistant. Run it after downloading it and it will upgrade your Windows system to the latest available update and please make sure you have enough storage space on your HDD.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="alignnone size-full wp-image-367838" src="https://www.howtogeek.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/ximg_5bae647c3dcc5.png.pagespeed.gp+jp+jw+pj+ws+js+rj+rp+rw+ri+cp+md.ic.MFZiN6AFp2.png" alt=""></p>
<p>If you experience a problem after updating to windows 10 October update, you can go back to your previous version of Windows 10. This option is only available for the first ten days after updating, after which Windows will automatically delete the old files to free up space.</p>
