Microsoft Windows 11 was announced last month, and the organization followed up the declaration by rolling out Windows Insider builds that show off the changes, enhancements, and updates going to its operating system not long from now.

While Microsoft previously allowed users to downgrade their installations within 30 days, it looks like users will have to make up their minds within 10 days this time around, or make a backup and reinstall Windows 10 manually.
