How to Extend Windows 11 Trial to 60 Days After Updating from Windows 10

Dec 15, 2025

Have you recently found yourself with only a 10-day trial period after upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11? This common scenario occurs when Windows 11 inherits licensing status from your previous Windows 10 installation.

Fortunately, there are legitimate methods to extend this evaluation period to up to 60 days for proper testing. This is a comprehensive guide on how to extend your Windows 11 trial from 10 days to 60 days after updating from Windows 10.

Note please: This workaround only works if you perform it during the initial 10-day trial period.

Step 1. Run CMD as Administrator

Right-click on the Start button on the taskbar, and select Terminal (Admin) to run CMD as an Administrator.

Step 2. Enter the Commands

Copy and enter the following commands one by one to the main interface of the Command Prompt tool:

DISM /Online /Set-OSUninstallWindow /Value:60

dism.exe /online /Get-OSUninstallWindow

Conclusion

That’s it! The trial period should be extended to 60 days when you are done. This period exists so you can make an informed decision about upgrading, so use this time wisely to ensure Windows 11 meets all your needs before committing to a purchase a license.

Always download Windows 11 from official Microsoft sources to avoid malware or compromised versions.
