Microsoft successfully completed the upgrade of Windows 10 to Windows 11, but there was a little kink involved: Russian citizens can’t get it. They have restricted access to the update because they fear cyber attacks.
When trying to download the latest version of Windows where does it actually show? The company’s official website doesn’t appear to have addressed this issue.
There was an outpouring of support for the “RG” reviewers when they reported online that they didn’t experience any difficulty downloading updates. This could be evidence that restrictions are being phased out.
On September 23rd, the government announced that they will not be using local software until an equally compelling alternative appears. They also noted that the Russian government will continue using foreign software until they release an equally compelling domestic alternative.
