    Dear Chris,
    I wanted to take a moment to express my gratitude for the video you created. It was incredibly helpful in guiding me through the process of installing Windows 11 on my unsupported PC. Your clear instructions and attention to detail made the process much easier for me. Thank you for taking the time to create such a valuable resource. I wish I could subscribe you a million times🙌🙌

    I can’t believe this worked! I had an old laptop with Windows 10 and it was slow as molasses, but I was able to update it and it seems to be just as fast as when I first purchased it. 😮 I’m amazed. It’s not my primary laptop, but it’s working so well that if anything ever happened to my primary laptop, I’d have a very reliable backup.

    I’ve been trying to find a way to upgrade to Win 11 on my nearly 10 year old laptop (model is 10+ years old) from Win 10 and this works like a charm without the need of any 3rd party software indeed. No need to do any registry work either. All it takes is just a few clicks of the mouse and few presses on the keyboard and boom there you have it after about a little over an hour. Honestly that system requirement check is just stupid. I feel that it’s a scam from MS to push people to upgrade to new machine. Hopefully MS won’t find this video and do something about it 😂
    Thank you so much sir. Keep these videos coming! 😃

    I would have never thought that a simple command switch would do this job; so much easier than editing the registry so thanks for sharing this tip.
    One thing from an environmental point of view is that for the work environments where you wisely advise not upgrading there can be better alternatives than buying a new PC for example:
    • Some systems like my HP Z240 support some Linux systems so if there are linux versions of software that the system uses that could save eWaste.
    • If another operating system is not an option but the production software does not require internet access then using a system like Linux and virtualising windows 10 and isolating the VM from the internet could work an keep things safe.
    I'm for keeping good hardware out of eWaste and this video will hopefully help get people onto Windows 11 and get longer out of their PCs
    Tank you!

Then I can tried and install it on other PC the way I don’t have to keep downloading it on other/that specific PC I want to install to. Once you plugged the USB (see what drive it is in) for me it is in D: drive just follow same steps on CMD prompt.
    D:\setup.exe /product server

    Chris, great video. Best Windows 11 upgrade video I've seen. Question: Are the Windows 10 files still on the PC on the C: drive and if so, is there a way to switch back to Windows 10? I ask because it is always possible that Microsoft could decide in the future to do a hardware check when installing a security patch and determine that Windows 11 is not supported on the machine and then your are stuck with an unsupported Windows 11.

    So I decided to download the Windows 11 23h2 pro version from Microsoft and install it on my 12 year old Acer Aspire 5750G laptop. All went smoothly, and it's not showing signs of problems 😀.
    I bypassed Microsofts compatability checker to allow the installation process. It has also been activated with Microsoft 😀.
    Not bad for a 12 year old laptop which specs are, Acer Aspire 5750G running i5-2450M 2.5GHz with turbo boost to 3.1GHz, 750GB HHD, 8GB DDR3 memory, it's nothing special by today's standards but when I bought it 12 years ago it was of good specification and it wasn't cheap!!

    I have no idea why this happened. I downloaded from Microsoft the Windows 11 .iso file onto my flash drive. I rebooted into the drive. It installed about 75% and then a box popped up telling me this was a Rufus made flash drive and it needed a couple of more options to install further. Reverted back to my Dell OptiPlex which is 14 years old and Windows 10. So I hit setup in Windows Explorer and the flash drive and it installed Windows 11. A couple of days later everything is smooth. All updates had worked and are working. Activated also. Loving it.

    The question is why would you want to upgrade to W11? There's only a few new features, and they took out a bunch of old features. So you're upgrading to LESS than what you started with. If you started with W10, at least. I'm sure there's a few niche gamers who absolutely must have the latest and greatest. To them, I'm sorry. I'm sorry you think that W11 is going to be worth the upgrade. Because at least half of you will miss something that your previous OS could do.

    @ZargonUSA 11 місяців тому +1

    @Chris Waite I don't think you know much about computers, because what you was demonstrating was performed using a virtual machine, I can see the small bar at the very bottom of the screen in the center, this is the VMWare bar, as if you didn't realize it, VMWare emulates TPM, UEFI, and CPU features, making the install of windows 11 work, I should know I have done it, and I'm still using the VMWare installled version to perform updates without even changing anything, but try what you demonstrated on a real, none supported machine it WILL fail.
    The video you show was running windows 11 anyway, so how can it be a none supported machine when you have Windows 11 already running? That's because it was running on a virtual machine, so if Windows 11 was already running on a real machine when you try the update, it WILL work, because to install windows 11 in the first place to do the update, the initial install would have passed all the checks.
    So, when you create a video I suggest you use a none supported machine and don't use screen capture, but use either a camcorder or some means of videoing you attempting to install Window 11 on a real (NOT a virtual machine) none supported machine.
    There IS only one way to install Windows 11 on a "REAL" unspported machine, I suggest you watch this video:-
    ua-cam.com/video/5ad88cLCISY/v-deo.html
    Now, installing Windows 11 on an unsupported machine WILL result in no security updates or major updates, but minor application updates would work, this is because Win11 sends machine information to MS and if there's no result for TPM, CPU and secure boot results, then the updates will not go through.

    • @cwtek1
      @cwtek1  11 місяців тому

      Thanks for your comments I didn’t use VMware but virtualbox, on a machine that was built in 2011 and originally designed to run windows 7 you want reassurance this works just check the comments many people have confirmed it works at the moment on unsupported hardware.
      With regards to security updates they will still work on unsupported machines but feature updates do not automatically get installed, you need to manually install these but I believe this is the same issue with any method that you install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware.
      I checked the video you suggested and technically it does the same thing tells Windows install to bypass the TPM check etc, but the video you suggest requires a lot more effort by going into the registry editor and changing keys I’m afraid the method in my video is much more simple by comparison to do the same job.
      Thanks for your comments.

The setup process literally just aborts and doesn't exist anymore in task manager. Would you have any idea what might be causing this?

    Why upgrade if it will not update?

      You will get security updates but not feature updates the feature updates you need to update manually using whatever the method for bypassing checks is at the time.

    This is like when they said it would not work on my fx6300 and fx8350 witch I proved them wrong as it works just fine as long as the tpm is disabled everything else works.

      Good question! I’m sure I will be there to unblock it, in fact on some systems they have blocked it from yesterday and I am doing a video later to show how to get around it

    On my Microsoft Surface Pro 2, this method failed for me. Thought everything was going great until when it checked for updates. I got the message "this device isn't compatible in windows server 2022" cause of failure "marvell avastar 350n wireless network controller"
    I haven't ever seen a failed install for this reason. I'm afraid to find another work around using software such as Rufus as my wireless card wouldn't access there internet. This Surface Pro 2 soon will need a paper weight. Thanks Microsoft for not supporting even YOUR own products. Ridiculous
