You just need to create one parameter in the registry.
Microsoft has decided to meet everyone who wants to install the official Windows 11, but cannot do it due to hard requirements systems. The company's developers have released instruction, with which you can disable checking the two most critical parameters - processor model and TPM 2.0.
Here's how to do it:
- Open Registry Editor. To do this, in the search box on the taskbar, enter regedit, and then select the application suggested by the system.
- Open HKEY_LOCAL_machine \ system \ Setup \ MoSetup.
- Create a DWORD (32-bit) named AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU and set it to 1.
After these steps, you will be able to install Windows 11 via an ISO image recorded on removable media. The installer will not check the processor model and TPM 2.0 availability. However, it is important that your PC supports at least more the older version of the TPM is TPM 1.2. How to check the version and enable the module if it is disabled at all, we wrote previously.
Microsoft clarifies that this installation method should only be used if recommended by support. If you are installing Windows 11 on a non-compliant device, you must acknowledge and understand all the risks associated with modifying the registry.
As a reminder, Windows 11 came out on the night of October 5. You can check if your PC is compatible with the new system using the official utility PC Health Check.
