    To update Windows 11 on your other computer, follow these steps:

    1. Check for Updates:
      • Go to Start > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Update.
      • Click on Check for updates. If updates are available, they will be downloaded and installed automatically.
    2. Upgrade to Windows 11: If your other computer is eligible for the upgrade:
      • Look for a banner that says Upgrade to Windows 11. If it appears, select Download and install.
      • Follow the prompts to complete the installation, which may require restarting your computer several times.
    3. Use Windows 11 Installation Assistant: If the upgrade option does not appear:
      • Download the Windows 11 Installation Assistant from Microsoft's website.
      • Run the tool as an administrator and follow the on-screen instructions to upgrade to Windows 11.
    4. ISO File / USB Installation (for advanced users):
      • Download the Windows 11 ISO file from Microsoft.
      • Create installation media using the Windows Media Creation Tool to make a bootable USB.
      • Launch the upgrade from Windows 10 by opening the mounted ISO and running Setup.exe.
      • Choose Keep personal files and apps if you want to retain your data.
      • Complete the installation by following the Setup wizard.

    Make sure to back up any important data before proceeding with the upgrade to avoid data loss.

    Dear @Noor Hossain

    Thank you for posting your question in the Microsoft Q&A forum.  

    Based on your information, I understand that you want to update Windows 11 on your other computer. 

    First and foremost, please help me note: 

    A Microsoft subscription (such as Microsoft 365/Office 365) does not directly manage or provide the license for your Windows operating system update. The MS subscription is linked to your Microsoft Account, not to the specific computer. This subscription will work on the Windows 11 computer after you sign in with your Microsoft Account and install the Office applications. 

    Windows licenses are handled separately. 

    The process for updating your other computer to Windows 11 depends on a few key factors, primarily what version of Windows it is currently running (usually Windows 10) and whether it meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11. 

    User's image

    Reference:  

    If your computer is currently running a supported version of Windows 10 and meets the requirements, the upgrade should be offered directly through Windows Update: 

    On that computer, go to Settings and find Windows Update. 

    Or follow this path: Settings> Update & Security > Windows Update. 

    In the Windows Update window that opens, select the Check for updates button. 

    If the computer is eligible, you will see the notification to upgrade to Windows 11. 

    Please refer to the official Microsoft document for more details on the requirements and update methods: Can I upgrade to Windows 11? - Microsoft Support 

    If anything is unclear, please let me know, I’ll guide you from there.  

    Looking forward to your reply!

    Are you trying to install Office on a second computer? You should be able to do that via your associated account at https://account.microsoft.com/services .

    You mention that you want to "update windows 11," and you should be able to do that regardless of which Microsoft Office product you have. Just go to Windows Update in Windows Settings.
