From $199 to $12.97 — Windows 11 Pro’s price drop is wild
TL;DR: Windows 11 Pro is just $12.97 through October 5 — a lifetime license with Copilot AI, upgraded security, and smarter multitasking features. Windows 11 Pro retails for $199, but through October 5, you can lock in a lifetime license for just $12.97. That’s one of the lowest prices we’ve seen for Microsoft’s latest operating system, making it an easy upgrade if your PC meets the requirements. Windows 11 Pro isn’t just a fresh coat of paint — it’s meant to be a productivity powerhouse. Features like Snap Layouts and multiple desktops make multitasking a breeze, while upgraded security tools like BitLocker and Smart App Control keep your data safe. Gamers benefit from DirectX 12 Ultimate, and professionals get access to advanced tools like Hyper-V virtualization and Azure AD integration. But the real star here is Copilot, Microsoft’s built-in AI assistant. Copilot can summarize web pages, help with email drafts, suggest code, and even change your system settings just by asking. It’s like having an extra set of hands that never gets tired. At this price, upgrading to Windows 11 Pro is a no-brainer — especially since this deal disappears after October 5. Get Windows 11 Pro for $12.97 (MSRP: $199) while you can. Microsoft Windows 11 ProSee Deal StackSocial prices subject to change.
