After a slew of leaks and reports, there comes a solid lead on Windows 11 release date. A leaked Intel document suggests that the stable build of Windows 11 could be launched in October this year. Microsoft has said that the Windows 11 will come to computers in fall. A wider release is possible in early 2022.
