[SOLVED] Did I just install Windows 11?

[ftkalcevic]

I had windows 10 developer previewer installed. One of the updates installed a version of windows 11. I didn't like it. It was unstable.

I wanted to roll back to windows 10, so I went through the option to do a full reinstall and wipe the system disk - I incorrectly selected "get files from the cloud". I was a little surprised after the reinstall that windows 11 popped up.

Do I have the real version of Windows 11, or just a preview? How do I tell?

Yes - that is the latest win 11 Insiders edition

its as real as the insiders version is. I expect its got an end date or something built in.

Thank you.

Just to clarify my concerns - my computer failed the compatibility test, and the insider preview said that I will be forced to go back to Win10 in the future, hence the surprise when I thought I was going back to Win10, but Win11 appeared.

Time to reinstall, again...

I would clean install using win 10 ISO as it might avoid repeats
