Windows 11: Microsoft rilascia la 2° build per gli Insider

Alla fine dello scorso mese, tramite un evento digitale in live streaming, Microsoft ha annunciato ufficialmente Windows 11, la prossima versione del proprio sistema operativo in arrivo sul mercato entro la fine del 2021 (Windows 11 è ora ufficiale!
