TL;DR: Get Microsoft Windows 11 Pro for just $9.97 (reg. $199) through June 28.

Prime Day may be grabbing headlines, but some of the most interesting software deals are already happening elsewhere. During Deal Days (our answer to Prime Day), Microsoft Windows 11 Pro is available for just $9.97 through June 28 (reg. $199) — a surprisingly low price.

This isn’t a stripped-down version or a temporary subscription. It’s a lifetime Windows 11 Pro license, designed for people who want more from their PCs than basic web browsing and email.

The biggest difference between Windows 11 Home and Pro comes down to capability. Windows 11 Pro includes BitLocker encryption to help protect sensitive data, Hyper-V for running virtual machines, Windows Sandbox for safely testing applications, and Azure AD support for business and professional environments.

If you’ve ever needed developer tools, advanced security, or workplace-ready features, this is the version built for that.

You also get everything that makes Windows 11 appealing in the first place. Snap Layouts make multitasking easier, DirectX 12 Ultimate helps maximize gaming performance, and Microsoft’s built-in Copilot AI assistant can help summarize information, answer questions, and generate content directly from your desktop.

What makes this deal particularly interesting is that it isn’t about settling for an older version to save money. It’s about getting the full professional edition of Microsoft’s latest operating system at a price that feels more like a pricing error than a software upgrade.

Before purchasing, make sure your PC meets Microsoft’s Windows 11 system requirements. This license is intended for compatible computers that need a new Windows license.

If your PC is ready, Deal Days may be the perfect excuse to upgrade now rather than waiting for the next big sale event.
