Sad that it's Windows 11 only. I can't upgrade. I have a normal, recent PC that I dual boot with Linux, and Microsoft wants me to keep Windows 10 in that constellation. Upgrading is prevented by a silly if statement, and there's nothing I can do. It's the first time a software vendor actively doesn't want me to to have their latest software, but it is what it is.
- skeaker 3y agoWhat do you mean? If it's the TPM requirement, Rufus can whip up a Win11 installer that bypasses that in like a minute.
- c-hendricks 3y agoVentoy will also help them, there's absolutely something they could do.
- yellowapple 3y agoYou can also boot the normal installer, hit Shift+F10, run regedit, and set HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig\BypassTPMCheck to 1.
- codeflo 3y agoUnless there's official documentation that this is officially supported, hacks like these can stop working at any moment. For an unimportant machine, sure, use whatever third-party tool to bypass the installer you want. For a production machine, I don't think that's wise.
