If Windows 11 detection isn't working  and the user doesn't set the OS picker to Windows 11, I think that SUMO KB articles for desktop will show Windows 11 users content for a "default" OS, which used to be Windows 8 - see bug 1527337. 

Leo or Fabi, is the default OS now Windows 10? In that case (assuming this is a bug that won't get fixed any time soon) the Firefox article https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-change-your-default-browser-windows/ will need another update, since many users on Windows 11 wouldn't notice that the "Customize this article" OS picker shows a different Windows version and will see Windows 10 instructions. 

If this is a bug that will be fixed soon, please let me know and I'll hold off on further updates.

(EDIT) If SUMO detects Windows 11 as Windows 10 (see my comment 2 P.S. above) then KB articles will be customized for Windows 10. That's also a  problem, since articles with different win10 and win11 content will show the wrong content to Windows 11 users who don't change the OS picker.  I have a revision pending to one such article to remove the OS showfor markup. See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-change-your-default-browser-windows/history
