TL;DR: Windows 11 Pro is $11.99 (reg. $199) with code DEAL20 through Nov. 15, and the lifetime license adds BitLocker, Hyper-V, and Copilot to your PC.
Paying full price for an operating system is hard to justify when the same license goes on sale. If your PC feels slow or you keep putting off an upgrade, try a lifetime Windows 11 Pro license, now $11.99 (reg. $199) with code DEAL20.
You pay once, and you never pay a renewal fee. Windows 11 Pro has an updated interface, Snap layouts for working in several windows at once, and face or fingerprint sign-in backed by TPM 2.0 security.
Professionals and power users also get access to tools that Windows 11 Home doesn’t offer. Hyper-V runs virtual machines, Windows Sandbox tests apps in an isolated space, BitLocker encrypts your drive, and Azure AD connects the PC to business networks. If you work on several client projects at once or keep sensitive files on your laptop, these tools matter every day.
The best tech deal this week
The Apple iPhone 18 Pro is free right now with T-Mobile
Copilot is built into the taskbar too. You can ask it to summarize a page, answer a question, or write code without opening a browser.
Before you buy, run Microsoft’s PC Health Check app to make sure your computer is compatible. This license is for PCs that need a new Windows license, and it installs on one PC. It won’t install on a Windows 10 machine that can’t get the free upgrade through Windows Update.
