Subscribed after a year of lurking and shamelessly using your advice regardless. Since you've just saving me scrapping a perfectly excellent 7700HQ gaming laptop, which I'd given up on being worth investing in a new battery for, I cannot carry on without making amends. This has been such a useful channel, it's now my No. 1 go-to for PC queries. Thanks so much, Brian & team.
Great Video Brian, Some users may notice that Keep files settings and apps is not available to them if they download say the English International version of Windows 11 and their computer default language is English United States. I just downloaded the correct language ISO and all options as per your video became available again
I have been running windows 11 on un-supported hardware since it came out. Normal Windows bugs aside I have never had a problem. I am that used to 11 now, I would be upset if I was forced to go back to Windows 10. There is no a chance I could afford a new PC (UK cost of living issue).
Yes, I do, but some may have to add this registry key for version updates: - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup\AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU And set it to 1. But don’t edit the registry if you are not sure what you are doing as it could kill your installation! @@ekolog8201
Awesome video. Been struggling with my bios for a few hours now. I was ready to give up when I came across your video. Windows 11 is installed now! TY TY TY
Nice one Brian I have had Windows 11 Pro on my older Ivy Bridge build for some time now and back then I used the method of applying registry hacks (Bypass CPU and TPM version via the Rufus feature) and this is a much easier way of getting Windows 11 onto an older computer. I have had so far no problems in the almost two years I have installed it with the updates but am anticipating that when version 23H2 becomes available that Microsoft will deny access to it. But all the same it has worked as I said for that amount of time.
I just used Brian's guide to revive my old i7 7700HQ laptop, which I'd given up on. I'm cock-a-hoop with it, it seems be snappier with W11 than W10, so now I'll have it as a mobile backup to the full-on desk-top I built last year, and it's getting a new battery and SSD in celebration. Thing is, MS can't very well cancel the use of W11 for older PCs now, or they'll have a world-wide riot on their hands. I see W11 being able to keep old PCs running until they are just too decrepit to carry on, while W12 will arrive in a year or two, with even better security, for the more up-to-date PCs.
Thank you very much. It works! I am installing Windows 11 by upgrading from Windows 8.1 using the same method, not merely on non-supported PC but indeed a non-supported Mac. I am able to use Windows 11 smoothly on a Mac Mini mid 2011 (5.1) with no problem. This model of Mac not even got a bootcamp of Windows 10 or above but this method works. Amazing and thank you very much.
Thank you for the best tutorial I've ever seen on this issue, it might take a lot longer on the installation however, it's well worth it. The best and easiest conversion ever!
I used Rufus to get around the TPM Check etc. My laptop’s CPU was one generation “too old.” win 11 worked fine because I didn’t have money for a new computer at that time. I eventually found a Thinkbook 13s for $400 down from $750 and now use that laptop.
Thanks for the excellent tutorial. I'm in the process of upgrading my computers to either run Win 11 or be replaced, this will help with some of the ones too good to simply ditch, but not capable of a regular upgrade. I still don't understand the logic that is making so many computers obsolete
Well done on a very clear instructional video to solve a really annoying Microsoft restriction. I varied my upgrade slightly, by copying the Windows 11 iso to another PC on my WIFI network, to avoid filling the PC to be upgraded, with another 6GB of files. I then shared the ISO across the network, and mounted it as, say, the E- Drive, from the Windows 10 PC I was upgrading. I then ran from the CDM window, as the administrator: e:\setup /product server It then installed just as you have shown 😎
Thanks Brian. I already updated my high spec older windows 8 laptop to Windows 11 , bypass TPM and secure boot but i did it different . Nice video. Thanks.
I used your recommendations and followed your tutorial well from a Windows 10 installation installed from Boot Camp on a 2017 MacBook Air. By quietly following what you suggested, everything worked without a hitch... Thanks, I'm currently with Windows 11 updated from Windows update and a mac running on macOS Monterey, latest compatible OS. The next step will be to switch with OPENCORE LEGACY PATCHER software to Sequoia last macOS distribution ..... We'll see if it works. Thanks again for your easy to follow and understand explanations. Best regards from Switzerland
Brilliant workaround to some absolutely unnecessary restrictions aimed at selling more PCs. We all knew if a PC could run Windows 10 it can run 11. Can we safely delete the "Windows11" folder we created after installation is complete?
Thank you! You saved me from having to buy another laptop! I kept getting the incompatibility messages when trying to install windows 11 on my laptop. I got so far and to add the windows 11 files unto a thumb drive, but it wouldn’t load from the thumb drive without the incompatibility error messages or just stalling somewhere on install at some percentage. I followed what you said and copied the filed to the C drive from the thumb drive and everything worked perfectly. I have been thinking there HAS to be a way around this. I seen someone put windows 11 on a 15 year old handheld pc. I knew if I just watched the right video I would get the correct advice. Thanks a million!
Do not worry Microsoft will use any psychological trick to get you with Windows 11, i have laptop's with Windows 7 working just fine, no problems. Microsoft just want's you to buy a new pc and a now license if possible because they are corporate greedy bastar*s. And the tons of junk that are getting installed so Microsoft can use data and other things. Windows 11 also makes computers act like they are working slower, lower fps's than on W10. Why cant they just leave one Windows number and just use Names for releases like Apple does, it would be to easy...... i know.
Great video Brian! I used this method on a 4th Gen Intel laptop yesterday. Runs well. I am sure when the next version of Win11 releases it will probably break the system. I am doing this for testing purposes. Cheers!
this method had existed for 2 years and people are calling it "newest" lol, it can be done in an even more simpler way as well but I guess copy pasting everything is "newest"
MS will not prevent using W11 in virtual machines for business reasons so there must be virtual solutions which can be interposed between hardware and VM. This is all about revenue and adding difficulty for corporates would be unwise.
Very nice job,Brian. I have already installed windows 11 on my old PC but the screen stuck after 5 to 7 minutes but the cursor can only be moved. Can you please help ? or is it my old graphic card doing this ?
Fortunately I got given a laptop with Windows 10 and upgraded to windows 11. It is windows 11 capable. I haven't used my old HP Z440 with windows 10 for months. I may now put windows 11 on it because it's so much more powerful. Cool video again.
Finally something that works❤ I was stuck on an older Windows 11 build on my unsupported PC since last Fall 2023 because the older hacks stopped working. So thank you so much for this new way 👍
I just completed my windows 11 upgrade on my MacBook Air. I’m running Ventura on the other partition and I just finished installing Windows 11 all I had to do was make a modified SD card with Rufus with the installation files on it and use that to upgrade.
Unless your the type of person who absolutely has to have the latest this or that, I just don't understand why someone would want to do this (in 2 years' time, if Windows 10 support is actually being withdrawn, okay). Windows 11 is more of a shuffle than a step-on from Windows 10, the latter being a very stable OS - Windows 11 isn't there yet.
If you don't like command line, another method is to open the iso through either mount or explore, open the "sources" folder, find setupprep, right click and make a shortcut to desktop. Edit the shortcut entry "Target" by adding "(space)/product server". Now you simply double click the shortcut you created and you are off and running. less chance for typing errors, and if needed to try multiple times, just run again.
Great and very informative video bud , just one question do u need to activate windows 11 as I can see in your video it’s not activated if yes then how do I need to buy key or it will automatically activate as being using already activated windows 10 thanks
Copying the ISO to a folder on the local drive shouldn't be necessary, just launch the command "...\setup.exe /product server" from the mounted ISO should do the job done.
Superb method Brian, worked perfectly. For the next major release, i'll assume we need to repeat the same method each year , via ISO, as we'll not get the major updates via system update.
It just closes installer prior to blue screen Installing Windows Server like nothing happened (time 4:49 from video) Not sure why it's not working on Dell Latitude with Intel i5 6th gen. 😢
So i messed up my little laptops boot up system in all. I was wondering if I can add the windows 11 iso on usb and just try it directly. Or do i have to re-install the windows 10 iso and then follow this tutorial afterwards. If you have another video explaining to boot windows 11 from usb please direct me there
My still showing "making sure you are ready to install" then I left for 4 minutes because it's saying "the will be in a few minutes" something like then I came back then I see this is still showing "making sure you are ready to install" then I left for a half night still showing "making sure you are ready to install" then I get angry then I stopped the process. Why it didn't work bro? Your take a sec or minutes my one takes a half night😢😢😢😢😢
Hey there, great tutorial, Thank you Just to confirm before installing, do we get regular updates if we install with this method...? I have a intel 7th gen laptop, just one generation short of getting the update and yeah, like most of the others watching this video, I too am kinda refrained from buying a new laptop anytime soon...
After upgrading the Windows 11 23H2, then may I, or can I, delete the "Windows11" folder which you recommended to create for upgrading? In order to save space and not wasting the storage? Or I need to keep this new folder to maintain functionality?
A new HP Zbook would cost me a small fortune and the one I have with Win10 works perfectly and Win10 is is super intuitive, in fact I have a computer with Win11 and I had to buy the Stardock menu app to return it's menu back to a Win10 tiled menu. Win operating systems are all cosmetic, it's the applications and software which is important.
Success. I did have all the requirements except the AMD processor. Including activated necessary option in the Bios. Its a bit slow at times and does not like two applications being used at once. I want to wait a couple of years before upgrading hardware as the new AI advancements will take a few years to stabilise but should revolutionise tech.
I unfortunatly did not get ready to install windows pop up, it just gets some downloads and everything but never goes fully to ready to install windows, just shuts down process, what am i doing wrong? I did everything same as on the video.
in "Choose what to Keep" 'Keep files, settings and apps' is grayed out and only allows for 'Keep personal files only' or 'Nothing'. But I need to keep files, settings and apps. What do I do? I selected the wrong language English-International although windows 10 had English-US.
I'm really not to keen to do this, I have done it, and probably will do it for people. I'm kind of a stickler and I like Microsoft's registry key workaround that allows you to ignore CPU and TPM 2.0, but still make you have tpm 1.2, secure boot, uefi, all that, those computers very much deserve to run Windows 11 and keep working.
Well documented video. Brian you still have to have UEFI bios and secure boot right? When I first installed 11 2 years ago on my MBR mashine I deleted appraiserres.dll that would skip the installation to check the hardware. I don't think that this tip work anymore.
I've used that method with an addition; "Deleting the appraiserres.dll file doesn't work in Windows 11 22H2 or newer. You must replace it with an empty dummy" Not sure if it still works now though. This was on a Dell Latitude D630 🙂
Interesting method. Tell me more of the tpm2.0 motherboard fix please? 1st yime i heard of that!. I saw a video once of installing software fix for tpm 2.0 bur couldn't find it again. Though that dtill leaves my eith wrong version of i5 CPU to contend with
currently Im using my unsupported hardware laptop (A6 Processor) with Win11.. what I did was using PowerISO, I replaced the install.wim of Win10 ISO with install.wim of Win11.. I can now install from scratch windows 11 or upgrade win10 to win11 to any unsupported hardwares.. but this one is a lot easier if your upgrading your win10 machines to win11..
Thanks. Worked great on my W10 Pro installed on an older MSI GP72 7RDX Leopard. The GP72 is still a pretty fast machine with the upgraded 4TB of SSD memory. Worked flawlessly. Made a new recovery drive as well.
you know the supported hardware requirements is bs total bs why cause a 7700k for example is way way seriously way more powerful then a supported Walmart pc running a Celeron or Pentium CPU
It didnt work for me, please help i did everything perfectly litterly everything didnt even miss a step but when it was checking the pc it didnt by pass and just said it doesn't work... Please helpp 🙏😭
My desktop satisfies all requirements for windows 11 except for the BIOS that is Legacy and MBR, will this method work? Any chance of losing data? Would it be better to change BIOS and make a fresh install or just stick with my current windows 10? Cheers!
Not to b!tch but curiosity (necessity) Why's it necessary to creat a folder on system drive and run from there and not from mounted drive?? Would like to know cz I can't install 11 in any way. Giving me bsod in every mode. Couldn't get past bsod (without actually getting in windows) in 1st run of windows.
Tried this method but the option to "Choose what to keep" is grayed out for Keep Files, Settings, and apps! I can only select Keep personal file or Nothing. Any idea?
Some users may notice that Keep files settings and apps is not available to them if they download say the English International version of Windows 11 and their computer default language is English United States. I just downloaded the correct language ISO and all options as per your video became available again
Please help, I want to install win11 on the second hard drive in my pc so that I have a duel boot with win10. I’m a little familiar with duel boot setup but I’m hasn’t to try this for fear of overwriting win10.
I'm running my legal copy of W10 Pro (Full version /NOT OEM) on a Virtualbox VM. The VM does not currently meet the hardware requirement for W11. BUT, I could tweak the Virtualbox setup so that the virtual hardware does then meet the requirements for W11 (TPM, EFI, Secure Boot, memory etc). Does anyone know if in tweaking the setup, I would run afoul of the MS licensing checks? Thanks in advance for any advice.
Can a person change their motherboard and processor to the requirements for windows 11? I built my tower 7 or so years ago from watching vids so I think it would be better than buying a complete new system. Thanks.
is it the same upgradring windows 10 to windows 11 using create installation media without using windows 11 installer from flash drive or anything that is usb removable storage device?
As soon as I enter the .exe product server in the CMD I get a message saying This version of c:\Windows11\setup.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running. Check your computer’s system information and then contact the software publisher. Is there a fix for this ? I’ve followed your instructions to the letter.
But Windows 10 is still good until Oct 2025. You have to be logged on the Microsoft (MS) account to access Windows 11 and they will know which computers bypassed TPM 2.0. The possibility of MS deactivating those Windows machines is not impossible to imagine; in fact, as profit driven as they are, very probable.
I followed your instructions step by step and it downloaded the win 11 64 bit version without any issues, however when clicking on the downloaded ISO a new window opens up to burn the ISO on a DVD instead of on the pc, tried burning it as instructed and nothing happens. Any ideas what went wrong here?
Please let me know how I can upgrade from Windows 10 back to Windows 7. What software is trustworthy enough to keep us relatively secure? Mozilla VPN, Firefox & AVG Antivirus?

Yeah, no problems. Just clarifying issue that could happen
And this is why i dislike western countries.
Do you receive updates on your Win11?
Yes, I do, but some may have to add this registry key for version updates: -
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup\AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU
And set it to 1.
But don’t edit the registry if you are not sure what you are doing as it could kill your installation!

I just upgraded from 11 back to 10. Best move ever! Do what you got to do.
Can you use this technique to install Windows 11 23H2 onto a Windows 11 22H2 non-auppoerted PC? Thanks.
I did exactly what you said. But in Cmd prompt, result. Can't find specified path! 🙁🙁Can someone help me?
Ask on my discord server for help
Worked like a charm! Thanks
I unfortunatly did not get ready to install windows pop up, it just gets some downloads and everything but never goes fully to ready to install windows, just shuts down process, what am i doing wrong? I did everything same as on the video.
Thanks It worked, but the opcion "keep personal files and apps" is grayed out, please help
same here. You have to use the same language as defined in your settings. I have got a prob because English-Australia isn't in the selection criteria.
Would be great to have that CMD command in a description for copy/ paste. Otherwise, THANKS a bunch! :)
After the screen on 4:42 after it’s done my setup screen disappeared? How can I fix this?
in "Choose what to Keep" 'Keep files, settings and apps' is grayed out and only allows for 'Keep personal files only' or 'Nothing'. But I need to keep files, settings and apps. What do I do? I selected the wrong language English-International although windows 10 had English-US.
found it: it's the language, I chose International-English because English-Australia isn't there.
@@Ja14111948 so what you did? i have similar thing
I'm really not to keen to do this, I have done it, and probably will do it for people. I'm kind of a stickler and I like Microsoft's registry key workaround that allows you to ignore CPU and TPM 2.0, but still make you have tpm 1.2, secure boot, uefi, all that, those computers very much deserve to run Windows 11 and keep working.
Whats the advantage in doing that way? More secure?
Works like a charm. Thank you
Can I delete the windows 11 folder set up when it’s done installing 🤔
Wow! That looks easy! I hope to try it soon. Because, next year Windows 10,will be no more. 😮
Well documented video. Brian you still have to have UEFI bios and secure boot right? When I first installed 11 2 years ago on my MBR mashine I deleted appraiserres.dll that would skip the installation to check the hardware. I don't think that this tip work anymore.
I've used that method with an addition;
"Deleting the appraiserres.dll file doesn't work in Windows 11 22H2 or newer. You must replace it with an empty dummy"
Not sure if it still works now though.
This was on a Dell Latitude D630 🙂
Interesting method. Tell me more of the tpm2.0 motherboard fix please? 1st yime i heard of that!. I saw a video once of installing software fix for tpm 2.0 bur couldn't find it again. Though that dtill leaves my eith wrong version of i5 CPU to contend with
Great video
Worked seamlessly
Great video! Saving me a lot of time. Still works as of today, Microsoft 64-bit US English ISO
Great tutorial, might squeeze another couple of years out of my HP Z620 dual-Xeon disk render station.
Isn't xeon a power house. 12 threads I believe
currently Im using my unsupported hardware laptop (A6 Processor) with Win11.. what I did was using PowerISO, I replaced the install.wim of Win10 ISO with install.wim of Win11.. I can now install from scratch windows 11 or upgrade win10 to win11 to any unsupported hardwares.. but this one is a lot easier if your upgrading your win10 machines to win11..
What? Replaced file of w10 with 11…?
Thanks. Worked great on my W10 Pro installed on an older MSI GP72 7RDX Leopard. The GP72 is still a pretty fast machine with the upgraded 4TB of SSD memory. Worked flawlessly. Made a new recovery drive as well.
you know the supported hardware requirements is bs total bs why cause a 7700k for example is way way seriously way more powerful then a supported Walmart pc running a Celeron or Pentium CPU
@@SaraMorgan-ym6ue Just run Linux. Linux will run on almost anything.
It didnt work for me, please help i did everything perfectly litterly everything didnt even miss a step but when it was checking the pc it didnt by pass and just said it doesn't work... Please helpp 🙏😭
My desktop satisfies all requirements for windows 11 except for the BIOS that is Legacy and MBR, will this method work? Any chance of losing data?
Would it be better to change BIOS and make a fresh install or just stick with my current windows 10?
Cheers!
Hi there when I type in the exact same command promp as you suggested it says the system can not find the path specified pls help if you can
Not to b!tch but curiosity (necessity)
Why's it necessary to creat a folder on system drive and run from there and not from mounted drive??
Would like to know cz I can't install 11 in any way. Giving me bsod in every mode. Couldn't get past bsod (without actually getting in windows) in 1st run of windows.
Tried this method but the option to "Choose what to keep" is grayed out for Keep Files, Settings, and apps! I can only select Keep personal file or Nothing. Any idea?
Some users may notice that Keep files settings and apps is not available to them if they download say the English International version of Windows 11 and their computer default language is English United States. I just downloaded the correct language ISO and all options as per your video became available again
Working flawlessly. Many thanks 😊
is it safe my laptop is 4 years old i5 for win 11 it says the processor isnt supported by win 11 so i do this method on thevideo?
Please help, I want to install win11 on the second hard drive in my pc so that I have a duel boot with win10.
I’m a little familiar with duel boot setup but I’m hasn’t to try this for fear of overwriting win10.
Excellent Tutorial, it worked flawlessly,
¿Funcionaría si se ejecuta directamente desde la unidad donde está montado el ISO, sin necesidad de copiar el contenido a la unidad C?
I ran this as instructed, yet it not run. Comment on screen: The file name. directory name or volume label syntax is incorrect.
Do you have a fix?
I'm running my legal copy of W10 Pro (Full version /NOT OEM) on a Virtualbox VM. The VM does not currently meet the hardware requirement for W11. BUT, I could tweak the Virtualbox setup so that the virtual hardware does then meet the requirements for W11 (TPM, EFI, Secure Boot, memory etc). Does anyone know if in tweaking the setup, I would run afoul of the MS licensing checks? Thanks in advance for any advice.
Can a person change their motherboard and processor to the requirements for windows 11? I built my tower 7 or so years ago from watching vids so I think it would be better than buying a complete new system. Thanks.
Mines getting to the ~Making sure your ready to install~ then the window just disappears, help?
my pc say its windows 10 english UK but when I choose windows 11 english it dosent give me the option to keep my apps
is it the same upgradring windows 10 to windows 11 using create installation media without using windows 11 installer from flash drive or anything that is usb removable storage device?
As soon as I enter the .exe product server in the CMD I get a message saying This version of c:\Windows11\setup.exe is not compatible with the version of Windows you’re running. Check your computer’s system information and then contact the software publisher.
Is there a fix for this ? I’ve followed your instructions to the letter.
Did you install it
Thanks a lot. You saved my sanity
But Windows 10 is still good until Oct 2025. You have to be logged on the Microsoft (MS) account to access Windows 11 and they will know which computers bypassed TPM 2.0. The possibility of MS deactivating those Windows machines is not impossible to imagine; in fact, as profit driven as they are, very probable.
I followed your instructions step by step and it downloaded the win 11 64 bit version without any issues, however when clicking on the downloaded ISO a new window opens up to burn the ISO on a DVD instead of on the pc, tried burning it as instructed and nothing happens. Any ideas what went wrong here?
Right click the iso and select mount. Then open the mounted iso to select the files
I THANK YOU VERY MUCH... There's not much else that needs 2b said 👊🏼😊👍🏽
Cheers
@@Britec09 Btw, I successfully completed these steps & it's official...✊🏽👊🏼
Please let me know how I can upgrade from Windows 10 back to Windows 7. What software is trustworthy enough to keep us relatively secure? Mozilla VPN, Firefox & AVG Antivirus?
Thanks bro, you're a LIFESAVER!
Thank you for posting 👍👍
