But what if you install it on a spare computer or virtual machine? Well, that is certainly safer, yes. It would take away all of the fun when using my computer.įrom a privacy and security standpoint, you would have to be an absolute maniac to install the leaked copy of Windows 11 on your day-to-day computer that has access to private data. Obviously, if you aren't getting it from Microsoft directly, it could be full of malware and other bad stuff.Ĭould you ever truly feel safe doing private things, such as banking, when using a sketchy pre-release version of Windows 11? Personally, I would be constantly worried that hackers or other bad guys were viewing all my web activity or accessing my webcam.
While you can download Windows 11 right now, the real question, of course, is should you do it? Before we discuss the morality of doing so, let's be very clear - it is foolish to download and install a closed source operating system from non-official sources. This not only confirms what the next version of Windows will be called, but it made it possible for anybody to install the operating system early. No, I don't just mean images and videos were shared early - the actual operating system itself became available for download! It is a bootable ISO file. Earlier today, after weeks of rumors, Windows 11 leaked to the web.
