Actually if you use rufus and use the download option it has to ability to remove all checks and legally 100% activate from upgrading from windows 10 to windows 11 and the system requirements are stupid because windows 11 is basically windows 10 with a new start menu and if you are a gamer please listen windows 11 hates VR so if you have any VR headsets and want to upgrade wait unless you want stuttering video

This guide was perfect. If you can follow directions, there’s no reason why this shouldn’t work for anyone. I just downloaded Windows 11 on a 10 year old Gateway using your guide and its working wonderfully. PS. I just subscribed.😁
Worked for me! Running Win11 on mac, booting from Boot Camp. It's great that TH-cam saw their mistake and returned this video, I think Microsoft has already changed their requirements for installing, many are going around bs anyway . . . keep up the great work.
@@CyberCPU Well, my SSD is partitioned to C and D and all my files are on D disk, so I never reinstall it from within windows. I format C drive and install it that way. I have windows 11 on flash drive, but I never actually tried if it would work on my similar ''potato'' :D
Man fresh install is better option for me, i get back all my settings automatically. Even they automatically activate my os for me, i only have to sign in to my account.
Amazing video. I've been trying to upgrade my unsupported machine for over 1 year and after watching your video and followed your instructions, IT WORKED !! Thank you so much
Hey i want to Thank You for this video. I have tried a few other ones with no luck at all. The PowerShell was a little tricky but all i had to do was hit the pause and start button. Again THANKS
Don't keep your data files in the default Windows locations. Set up a folder outside of Windows. That way if you have to reinstall you don't have to move your data.
@@writerpatrick I back my data up to a NAS on my network and then the NAS gets backed up to the cloud. I've lost all of my data too many times to take a chance. Even better I always back up all of my TH-cam data to my NAS, the cloud, and an external drive. I work entirely too hard on these videos for there not to be multiple copies just in case one of my backups doesn't work.
Greetings from the UK. Thanks for an excellent, easy to follow tutorial. Worked flawlessly on my spare eight year old Acer Aspire E1. More power to you Sir!

@@benjohn6030 Hi, sorry for the (very) late reply. So far, so good. Everything still running smoothly. I think your T450 is Core i5, so should run even better than my Aspire (which is only i3).

A lot of modern anti cheat stuff wants to run at kernel level, a lot more want to do a lot of really uncomfortable data mining/analytics on your PC. Always another revenue stream, you know? Great video. I have no intention of using 11, but I live for workarounds for this kind of stuff. :)
For me, I'm close to upgrade my PC so there's no need for me to bypass it. But this video will help a couple of friends of mine that won't be upgrading their PC soon. Thanks for the video, sharing it right now.
The oldest system I've had Windows 11 running was on an AMD Athlon II X2 255 from 2010. I did a clean install using DISM /Apply-Image, a workaround that doesn't ask any questions or check system requirements. You can't upgrade an existing Windows 10 installation that way though, so this video shows that it's not impossible to do an upgrade on unsupported hardware even if there are more steps involved.
I have windows 11 pro running on a motion computing le1700 from 2007. I upgraded from windows 10 pro, not clean install. th-cam.com/video/xZxkmBxVTfc/w-d-xo.html
Mine was an i5-2500. Just created a USB Stick with Rufus and disabled Windows 11 requirements and Telemetry with two click....dunno what people act like this would be any hard
I just subscribed. I love how you make everything easy to follow. And, I like the honest assessment, when after you've told us how to do this, you then tell us the reasons we might not want to.
Great Video Rich! It upsets me that MS would rigidly enforce this when really it could be done under a caveat-basis! Our landfill/recycle centers don't need more computer cardcases to process. Most PCs produced in the last decade still can perform valuable service--leaving them vulnerable completely is a crime because they can re-infect...

More than five years I have struglled a lot to fix my pc, even I lost some videos and a lot of files I had saved. I tried some maintenance but I got no solution even my window insatallation was corrupted and I have also lost two laptops b/c of these previously but now b/c of your support and other similar tutorials I have learned how to fix all the problems and my Pc is clean and faster than I expeted. Thank you for all your support and good advices. GBU!
I've just upgraded my Windows 10 to 11 on my Lenovo ThinkPad X260. At this time, the Terminal and Security Dashboard issues were fixed already, and I did not do anything on both. When I tried to install Terminal as instructed on the video, it tells me I have a more recent version. and was able to open the Security dashboard without any problems. Thank you very much. The instructions are clear. As long as the instructions are followed, it works. This method is still working as of February 2023. Thanks again!
Windows terminal missing is actually quite common with in-place upgrades, even on supported hardware, I've got a 3950x system that upgraded itself to windows 11 Pro and windows terminal did not work. Remember, if you are fine with wiping everything out, or if you have a boot drive, and a data drive, you can generally just do a fresh install windows 11 from an un-modified ISO, as long as your computer has 2 threads, 4GB of RAM, and i think an 80GB HDD? I have windows 11 on an IBM Thinkpad X60 Tablet which originally shipped with Windows XP, but because it has an early 64 bit Core Duo with 4GB of RAM(only 3GB usable) windows 11 just installed without issue, now getting drivers to work was harder than expected, normally XP drivers just worked in windows 10, but with windows 11 i had some issues with the pen-touch screen and a few other things that i dont remember off the top of my head
I like what you do. You do very good guides with information enough to make real bonds like me manage this if i want to. But you never sound condescending ever. Love it
Thanks for showing us how to do that, and thanks for the advice at the end about thinking twice if it's your main machine. Decided not to bother for now for that reason.
MS said b4 Win11 came out - reminder only: They are removing 32 bit completely that's the 2nd biggest reason they made Win11. IMHO opinion they should make something for lower end, because only HARDWARE companies are benefiting not so much MS .
@@adamtajhassam9188 they removed 32bit in Windows 10 as well. 32bit is limited to 3Gb of ram. Windows 10 should have a minimum of 4Gb and honestly should really have 8Gb or more.
I recently used this method (late Jan 2023) and I didnt have to reinstall PowerShell or run that fix for Windows Security. Thanks CyberCPU, you bloody ROCK!! 🤘
I recently installed windows 11 on a 5-year-old Dell laptop. The most recent release of RUFUS has a setting where you can strip all this off while making the installation media. Works like a charm.
Question: wonder if I can modify the iso file with msmd - to make a more lean installation first and then run the github patch described in this video on that??? RUFUS does sth similar to MSMD right?
@@mainstreampropaganda7518 I don't know. All I know is I ran the most recent windows 11 downloaded in RUFUS removed the TPM and installed it on my older laptop. Runs great and so far I am not noticing any issues. I am also not noticing anything missing like the terminal. Looks like a clean install. I do understand that the RUFUS install MUST be a fresh install.
@@OriginalMergatroid Yes, they do. In fact, I had several last Tuesday. The thing is, and I can't overemphasize this enough! Make sure you have the critical drivers that will work. Luckily the Dell windows 10 drivers installed correctly in 11 for me.
The question many of us have and have yet to see anyone really explain it is what exactly makes Windows 11 so much better than Windows 10 that we should even bother upgrading? It requires all this BS just to install it and all its other BS hardware requirements and from what I have seen does not really offer anything substantial to justify going through the pain to upgrade! Seems to me the reason no one is doing a side by side comparison is because there really isnt one! So I ask you CyberCPU Tech, what the hell is so damn special with Windows 11 that would compel me to suffer the installation of it?
I won't be downgrading to Win 11 because of even more built in spyware and control, I use win 10 pro that has most of the telemetry etc blocked now, but I already use Linux as well and will be moving over to that full time in a year or so I am still using win 10 for only 1 piece of software at the moment I think.
@@PhoebeAvro Totally on board with you! Sounds like we have almost the exact same philosophy, only difference is I have 3 programs that need Windows 10 and wont run on Linux. Hoping that Microsoft has finally pissed off enough people that a proper emulator is created for Linux to run our software or better yet developers wake up that its no longer in their best interest to continue to ignore Linux and start supporting it! I have been done and over Windows for a very long time and have been dreaming of the day it is dethroned permanently!
It's not worth the headache if something goes wrong and also can't update. I'll wait until I get a new laptop in a couple of years that will have it preinstalled anyways. Not in any kind of rush right now to have my OS look like a Mac.
Windows 11 is much better than Windows 10 for the only reason that it has an expiry date of 2031 while Windows 10 will expire in 2025. That is why one should change, unless you are keen to replace computers that work well just to follow the last computer trend. Besides everything that runs on Windows 10 will run on 11, just the desktop enviroment is different, as like many linux distros differ one from another.
My 10 year old PC ran windows 11 just fine and even had it running the day it was released. Only issues I had was with windows assuming I had uefi bios when it kept trying to run scan disk at startup after a power outage. There were fixes for this issue but it required some specific software booted from usb to scan the disk and reset the flag on the drive. I recommend using windows on systems at least with a uefi bios as it causes fewer issues with my testing
This was the easiest guide to follow I just added Windows 11 Step by Step and it looks beautiful. All features are working plus my finger print login. It's AWESOME! Thanks 👍
Thanks so much for this video! It popped up in my suggested box this morning and after quickly checking it out, I decided to try it! And I'm pleased to say that your excellent explanation and tutorial now has my 7 year old Alienware laptop running win11! This is my first experience with win11 and I appreciate you showing me how to get it working on my old machine. I also did this on my HTPC and had the same result! Fun way to fill the day! Thanks alot 🙂
@@hessmir5270 from memory, I downloaded the windows 10 Instaler from the dell site, and installed as normal. If you're having trouble though, uninstall any version you have now, get the new one from the dell site (be sure to get your exact laptop model though) and reinstall. Also, dont let windows update try and get the software for you.... It never works.
If somebody has a computer that doesn't meet the requirements for Windows 11, teach them the Linux environment. Let them put Ubuntu on whatever hardware they have. That hardware will be good for the next 10 years.
Followed instructions to the letter, but ended up only having the original Windows.iso file in the folder. I ran setup anyway and it worked. I now have windows 11 on a machine that previously failed the checks!
I think theres a much easier way to do this - worked for me a few months ago to u/g my win10pro to win11 - after downloading the win11 installer to USB, look for the \sources folder and delete the file "appraiserres.dll" - then when you run setup DON'T allow it to download updates during the install/upgrade (otherwise it re-downloads the check file and tells you you're unsupported again) - your system should upgrade fine - when its done you can use windows update as normal. works fine on my amd 6100 with no tpm etc and a couple of other older laptops. your mileage may vary, but I've had no probs.
The minimum CPU requirements might be an issue in the future. The kernel guys probably want to tweak the compiler flags to generate faster code, which may rely on CPUs newer instruction sets etc.
Nah. Newer instruction sets are makink maximum 10-15% difference in computing power according to Jim Keller... I have windows 11 on a 2010 Xeon... zero problems... duh, windows 11 is practically a windows 10 skin...

Thanks Rich/CyberCPU Tech, this worked perfectly well, and I upgraded from Windows 10 Pro to 11 on a 7-year-old PC, in fact both Terminal/Powershell and Windows Security worked without the tweaks you mentioned around the end of the video. 👍👍
Thanks men after several failed attempts to install 22h2 , after following your video instructions i finally able to install 22h2 without any issues love you thanks for the video ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This is a great tutorial, and I'll probably give it a go on my i5-7400 system (approx 3 years old), as the processor doesn't meet Win11 requirements. I have a feeling that Microsoft are going to push people into purchasing newer hardware they can ill afford. Not a good move by them, considering you've shown it can run on pretty much any reasonable system. 👍
🇬🇦Mbolo (Hi),woooooow!!! thank you so so much for your video👌🏿🙌🏿!because my Win10 was already tweaked all settings and update went well very long about 4 hours but the results is amazing cmd and she'll working without no extra tweak and windows security 100% working well like before after installing Win11...my computer is faster... display is so much better am staying in Win11 my gaming graphics are on another level without a graphic card... thank you man.. keep up the great work 👊🏿🔥😎 stay blessed 🙏🏾
Tip in powershell/command prompt: Using the up or down arrow keys will cycle through the commands you've run recently. This list stays until you close powershell/cmd.
Beautiful stuff you got going here - following your instructions, I hit a home run... Though, in my case, I had to go through several tries - the issue was with failing updates. It finally worked after I chose the option to postpone updates till after the install... and now, I'm here on my sweet looking Windows 11 pro... I'm running the updates wizard and all is going well.. The only issue with my HW is the CPU incompatibility... Thanks, thanks, thanks...
It has been failing for me also. I chose not right now for the updates because I kept getting data error when it’s PASS HALFWAY TO BEING INSTALLED. So I’m doing this for by he fourth time and I hope it works.
It's been known for a while that pretty much anything dual core and up will run Windows 11. I've had it running on a 12 year old machine since they announced it. Of course many older computers will work better under W10 than W11. And Microsoft will supposedly put a watermark on the desktop of unsupported computers in a future update.
I don't really recommend a dual core. It will work but you will have high CPU usage most of the time. I don't even recommend a dual core in Windows 10.
@@STONE69_ A dual core i7 is still hyper threaded so it has 4 logical cores. With that said I have no idea why Intel made a dual core i7. I've seen that CPU before and it boggles my mind why they made it in the first place.
@@CyberCPU Because it has i7 in the name therefore appears to be better than it is. It's called misleading your customers, common business practices in tech I'm afraid. Anything to save a buck.
@@CyberCPUWhat to do with a batch of quad core CPUs with a large amount of broken cores, sell them as dual cores for Wallyworld budget PCs and similar. FX-8*** and FX-6*** ring any bells !?
Congratulations on hitting 1 million views in this video, Rich! This video is the first video I watched from your channel. Thank you for making useful tech tutorials and God bless you!
Dont forget that at anytime Microsoft could push an update which could disable a Win11 installed on unsupported hardware ... So you probably need to disable any update on that kind of installation, and the risk then is far too high.
Risk of update bricking windows is always there... No problems running windows 7 today. And I know it's not the risk you were talking about, but it's not that hard to avoid viruses.
Really interesting, I have many Virtual Machines on a 4 years old Double Socket server that has CPUs not supported and this option may make me save a lot of money! I have one question: what about Windows Updates? Works well ? Maybe in the future some update may lock your installation because of some incompatibility check ? I think this issue is quite difficult to answer and may happend to be a big problem. What's your opinion ?
There is a simpler method. Once you have the Windows 11 .iso, use the free tool "Rufus" then when creating the bootable thumb drive you have the "Image option" to select a Windows installation with no TPM/no Secure boot.
This is a highly educational video. However, I still have no desire to run Windows 11. Thanks. I've been running Linux Mint Cinnamon on my second PC, and I like it. Microsoft should get nervous. 😂
Linux mint cinnamon is by far the most polished distro in my opinion. Everything just works so seamlessly. Btw have you tried linux mint XFCE? it's way more responsive. Also i've found that peppermint OS is very very fast but it lacks quality of life improvements.
@@sifatullah7568 Thanks for the quick response. I haven't tried Mint XFCE, but I I'll try it next. What I do is to load different OS's on to external M.2 drives so whenever I want to try a new OS I only have to plug it into the USB port and reboot. 👍
@@OlettaLiano I've a decent pc but the only issue is I have a nvidia gpu. And linux doesn't play nice with it. That's why I only have to try lightweight distros even after having a decent pc :")

Let me tell you easiest way to do it. 1. Download windows 11 iso file 2.Download Rufus tool 3.Plug USB 4.Open Rufus 5.Select ISO file 6.Under image option select extended windows 11 installation no TPM and no secure boot option and then click on start 7.Install windows 11 from USB and you are ready to go
Uhmm...Still testing it, I moved to windows 11 a couple of weeks ago and I already found a few problems like, I lost windows defender, lag on menus and task bar, Etc. All this trouble in a brand new PC, I don't know what other problems would I have on olders machines. I would not recommend to upgrade, not yet...I'm still thinking to go back to 10...wish I could go back to 7.
To restore your Security functions, open the PowerShell with administrative rights, then add the following commands 1) add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register ((Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -allusers).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml') 2) Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage Worked here.

Win 11 cracks me up with these 'requirements'. You are 100% right, THEY SUCK! RUFUS was really quick to make removing them very easy. I have Win 11 deployed on several computers that have Legacy BIOS. One is an old AMD Phenom IIx4 system. One is running a Xeon E5-2430 CPU. One has an old Pentium III CPU. Honestly, I have less problems running Win 11 on Legacy systems than I did with Win 10.
I don't know too much but I do know one thing unsupported device due to the fact that Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer and want you to throw away your old devices I would think so it's as if in the past I picked up a laptop that had a corrupted hard drive so I bought a a pre-install Windows 10 Pro on a computer and I wanted to run it on my laptop but every information I looked up online it says it's not possible mind you I placed it back on and it did work it's just a tactic that they want you just to buy a new computer so is it possible that Windows 11 is the same scenario sorry to make this story so long my question to you is this if I was to put Windows 11 but I wanted to build my own PC but would I need
One comment I think is very important. If any of you are planning on installing Windows 11, it's defiantly advisable to do a full system backup. If anything goes wrong you don't lose what you've got. You can go back.
I bought a computer with a core I5-6500 in it with windows 11 on it and couldnt install a bunch of drivers because i cant update. Thank you. This helps!
Thank you for the guide! It works (I have i5 4570) without any issues so far. I upgraded existing Windows 10 installation and I didn't even have to fix Terminal and Windows security. Everything works fine after upgrade.
I took my computer to a store to be repaired yesterday, and the guy who fixed it told me about this. I would love the give this a try, but both of my computers have a lot of use. My laptop can't be upgraded because of no TPM 2.0 and AMD Radeon R4 isn't supported. I get that having Win 11 on older hardware that's 10 years+ could cause issues, as this is very much the case with my PC (APU and no TPM 2.0). But for a laptop/machine that is only 3 years old, I find it absolutely staggering.
For anyone having issues following this guide, I recommend following my newer guide on this. It's way easier.

Hey i want to Thank You for this video. I have tried a few other ones with no luck at all. The PowerShell was a little tricky but all i had to do was hit the pause and start button. Again THANKS
I suggest that anyone trying this to first do a full backup of their system.
Even if you do everything right, something could go wrong.
Completely agree. I should have included that warning in the video. I'll pin your post in hopes people take your advice.
I tried in VirtualBox... on my i5-4460... and it ran just fine, gave it 8 GB of RAM, and made a 80 GB partition
Don't keep your data files in the default Windows locations. Set up a folder outside of Windows. That way if you have to reinstall you don't have to move your data.
@@writerpatrick It sounds like you are implying to not do a full backup. Is that correct?
@@writerpatrick I back my data up to a NAS on my network and then the NAS gets backed up to the cloud. I've lost all of my data too many times to take a chance.
Even better I always back up all of my TH-cam data to my NAS, the cloud, and an external drive. I work entirely too hard on these videos for there not to be multiple copies just in case one of my backups doesn't work.
Greetings from the UK. Thanks for an excellent, easy to follow tutorial. Worked flawlessly on my spare eight year old Acer Aspire E1. More power to you Sir!
How's the experience? I also want to upgrade my Thinkpad T450 (8 years old laptop) from windows 10 to windows 11 but I'm too scared to switch. Your experience and knowledge might help me. Thank you
@@benjohn6030 Hi, sorry for the (very) late reply. So far, so good. Everything still running smoothly. I think your T450 is Core i5, so should run even better than my Aspire (which is only i3). My Aspire was just being used for web browsing, so really I had nothing to lose. Hope it goes well for you.
@@annegrey-blackman5934 hello i got a new easy way to do it faster
You can usually bypass it by doing this.
SHIFT + F10 > cmd > regedit > HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE > SYSTEM > SETUP > New > Key
Rename Key TO "LabConfig" now create these. all of them he to be DWORD 32-bit Value
New > Rename To BypassCPUCheck, Value Data = 1, Base = Hexadecimal
by now. Switch bases to Decimal
Now you need these:
BypassRAMCheck, Data base = 1
BypassTPMCheck, Data base = 1
BypassSecureBootCheck, Data base 1. Now Begin setup. NOW IT WORKS EXACTLY FINE!
@@benjohn6030 hi if you switch to windows 11 on Unsupported device you will not be able to play game with anticheat software like fortnite/valorant
Thanks very much for this. Just finished installing Windows 11 on a refurbished Lenovo Thinkpad T530 with a quad core i7-3630QM with 16GB RAM on a 256GB mSata drive. Works like a charm. Your instructions were very easy to follow and complete!
Currently I have a Lenovo Thinkpad 61P running an up to date Windows10. But it started life with XP Professional! So naturally I am excited about getting this on Windows 11. Thanks very much.
@@zakstev It must run like crap
@@illegalsmirf I installed an SSD a couple of years ago so it is quite snappy.
@@zakstev bro I feel u lol I have a old msi laptop that I messed up the w10 upgrade process from windows 8...it kept looping when it finished
Goodbye bricked harddrive...hello new ssd
I was sooo happy lol
@@AznJungleFever Yes, that did the trick for me. And my secret for getting it into Windows 11 is a TH-cam video that tells you how to do it.
It worked thanks now I can run windows 11 on my laptop thst I bought 2 years ago
For anyone wondering ...it works. No lag, My specs:
Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-2400 CPU @ 3.10GHz 3.10 GHz
RAM: 16.0 GB
GPU: AMD Radeon HD 7850
Just follow all the directions from the video.
A lot of modern anti cheat stuff wants to run at kernel level, a lot more want to do a lot of really uncomfortable data mining/analytics on your PC. Always another revenue stream, you know? Great video. I have no intention of using 11, but I live for workarounds for this kind of stuff. :)
For me, I'm close to upgrade my PC so there's no need for me to bypass it. But this video will help a couple of friends of mine that won't be upgrading their PC soon. Thanks for the video, sharing it right now.
The oldest system I've had Windows 11 running was on an AMD Athlon II X2 255 from 2010. I did a clean install using DISM /Apply-Image, a workaround that doesn't ask any questions or check system requirements. You can't upgrade an existing Windows 10 installation that way though, so this video shows that it's not impossible to do an upgrade on unsupported hardware even if there are more steps involved.
this media creation tool asks for nothing..it shows installing win 10 but actually installs win11 with no problems
I have windows 11 pro running on a motion computing le1700 from 2007. I upgraded from windows 10 pro, not clean install. th-cam.com/video/xZxkmBxVTfc/w-d-xo.html

How bout i3 4th gen?
Mine was an i5-2500. Just created a USB Stick with Rufus and disabled Windows 11 requirements and Telemetry with two click....dunno what people act like this would be any hard
I just subscribed. I love how you make everything easy to follow. And, I like the honest assessment, when after you've told us how to do this, you then tell us the reasons we might not want to.
This went very smoothly for me and I didn't even have an issue with terminal! Great video!
Thank you so much!! I tried a Win11 install on an older lap top and nothing worked . . . until I followed your instructions.
Great Video Rich!
It upsets me that MS would rigidly enforce this when really it could be done under a caveat-basis!
Our landfill/recycle centers don't need more computer cardcases to process.
Most PCs produced in the last decade still can perform valuable service--leaving them vulnerable completely is a crime because they can re-infect...
Just about all computer up to and ever over 10 Years Old will run perfectly fine once they have a SSD put in them....
yup agree on this totally
Helpful video -- thanks. FYI at 8:40 you confuse parenthesis with quotation marks.
These are parentheses: ( )
These are quotation marks: " "
Parentheses could also be a dash (anything that shows extra information)
@@godlyjblox2694 Must disagree. While a "parenthesis" is the extra information you refer to, and may be separated by dashes or commas, "parentheses" (as punctuation) refers exclusively to the curved brackets "(" and ")"
More than five years I have struglled a lot to fix my pc, even I lost some videos and a lot of files I had saved. I tried some maintenance but I got no solution even my window insatallation was corrupted and I have also lost two laptops b/c of these previously but now b/c of your support and other similar tutorials I have learned how to fix all the problems and my Pc is clean and faster than I expeted. Thank you for all your support and good advices. GBU!
I've just upgraded my Windows 10 to 11 on my Lenovo ThinkPad X260. At this time, the Terminal and Security Dashboard issues were fixed already, and I did not do anything on both. When I tried to install Terminal as instructed on the video, it tells me I have a more recent version. and was able to open the Security dashboard without any problems.
Thank you very much. The instructions are clear. As long as the instructions are followed, it works. This method is still working as of February 2023.
Thanks again!
Windows terminal missing is actually quite common with in-place upgrades, even on supported hardware, I've got a 3950x system that upgraded itself to windows 11 Pro and windows terminal did not work.
Remember, if you are fine with wiping everything out, or if you have a boot drive, and a data drive, you can generally just do a fresh install windows 11 from an un-modified ISO, as long as your computer has 2 threads, 4GB of RAM, and i think an 80GB HDD? I have windows 11 on an IBM Thinkpad X60 Tablet which originally shipped with Windows XP, but because it has an early 64 bit Core Duo with 4GB of RAM(only 3GB usable) windows 11 just installed without issue, now getting drivers to work was harder than expected, normally XP drivers just worked in windows 10, but with windows 11 i had some issues with the pen-touch screen and a few other things that i dont remember off the top of my head
I like what you do. You do very good guides with information enough to make real bonds like me manage this if i want to. But you never sound condescending ever.
Love it
Thanks for showing us how to do that, and thanks for the advice at the end about thinking twice if it's your main machine. Decided not to bother for now for that reason.
Glad it helped.
MS said b4 Win11 came out - reminder only: They are removing 32 bit completely that's the 2nd biggest reason they made Win11. IMHO opinion they should make something for lower end, because only HARDWARE companies are benefiting not so much MS .
@@adamtajhassam9188 they removed 32bit in Windows 10 as well. 32bit is limited to 3Gb of ram. Windows 10 should have a minimum of 4Gb and honestly should really have 8Gb or more.
It worked! I applied this method a week ago and 'till now everything is working beautifully smooth, secure and updated, thank you so much.
I recently used this method (late Jan 2023) and I didnt have to reinstall PowerShell or run that fix for Windows Security.
Thanks CyberCPU, you bloody ROCK!!
🤘
I recently installed windows 11 on a 5-year-old Dell laptop. The most recent release of RUFUS has a setting where you can strip all this off while making the installation media. Works like a charm.
Question: wonder if I can modify the iso file with msmd - to make a more lean installation first and then run the github patch described in this video on that??? RUFUS does sth similar to MSMD right?
@@mainstreampropaganda7518 I don't know. All I know is I ran the most recent windows 11 downloaded in RUFUS removed the TPM and installed it on my older laptop. Runs great and so far I am not noticing any issues. I am also not noticing anything missing like the terminal. Looks like a clean install. I do understand that the RUFUS install MUST be a fresh install.
@@THE-michaelmyers Do your updates work?
@@OriginalMergatroid Yes, they do. In fact, I had several last Tuesday. The thing is, and I can't overemphasize this enough! Make sure you have the critical drivers that will work. Luckily the Dell windows 10 drivers installed correctly in 11 for me.
Clean Install or Upgrade ?
The question many of us have and have yet to see anyone really explain it is what exactly makes Windows 11 so much better than Windows 10 that we should even bother upgrading? It requires all this BS just to install it and all its other BS hardware requirements and from what I have seen does not really offer anything substantial to justify going through the pain to upgrade! Seems to me the reason no one is doing a side by side comparison is because there really isnt one! So I ask you CyberCPU Tech, what the hell is so damn special with Windows 11 that would compel me to suffer the installation of it?
Very valid point. Been wondering this myself.
I won't be downgrading to Win 11 because of even more built in spyware and control, I use win 10 pro that has most of the telemetry etc blocked now, but I already use Linux as well and will be moving over to that full time in a year or so I am still using win 10 for only 1 piece of software at the moment I think.
@@PhoebeAvro Totally on board with you! Sounds like we have almost the exact same philosophy, only difference is I have 3 programs that need Windows 10 and wont run on Linux. Hoping that Microsoft has finally pissed off enough people that a proper emulator is created for Linux to run our software or better yet developers wake up that its no longer in their best interest to continue to ignore Linux and start supporting it! I have been done and over Windows for a very long time and have been dreaming of the day it is dethroned permanently!
It's not worth the headache if something goes wrong and also can't update. I'll wait until I get a new laptop in a couple of years that will have it preinstalled anyways. Not in any kind of rush right now to have my OS look like a Mac.
Windows 11 is much better than Windows 10 for the only reason that it has an expiry date of 2031 while Windows 10 will expire in 2025. That is why one should change, unless you are keen to replace computers that work well just to follow the last computer trend. Besides everything that runs on Windows 10 will run on 11, just the desktop enviroment is different, as like many linux distros differ one from another.
My 10 year old PC ran windows 11 just fine and even had it running the day it was released. Only issues I had was with windows assuming I had uefi bios when it kept trying to run scan disk at startup after a power outage. There were fixes for this issue but it required some specific software booted from usb to scan the disk and reset the flag on the drive. I recommend using windows on systems at least with a uefi bios as it causes fewer issues with my testing
This was the easiest guide to follow I just added Windows 11 Step by Step and it looks beautiful. All features are working plus my finger print login. It's AWESOME! Thanks 👍
The explanation is so clear that a novice can follow easily. Good job!
Thanks so much for this video! It popped up in my suggested box this morning and after quickly checking it out, I decided to try it!
And I'm pleased to say that your excellent explanation and tutorial now has my 7 year old Alienware laptop running win11!
This is my first experience with win11 and I appreciate you showing me how to get it working on my old machine.
I also did this on my HTPC and had the same result!
Fun way to fill the day!
Thanks alot 🙂
Toad, how djew get the RGB lights to work on the Alienware after the win 11 hack? Mine won't do it...Please and thanks.
@@hessmir5270 from memory, I downloaded the windows 10 Instaler from the dell site, and installed as normal. If you're having trouble though, uninstall any version you have now, get the new one from the dell site (be sure to get your exact laptop model though) and reinstall. Also, dont let windows update try and get the software for you.... It never works.
Really appreciate the level of detail with your instructions, my Windows 11 is running fine and terminal fired up without a hitch!
Wow...from A to Z everything went great. Thank you so much for this video tutorial 👍
Glad it helped.
If somebody has a computer that doesn't meet the requirements for Windows 11, teach them the Linux environment. Let them put Ubuntu on whatever hardware they have. That hardware will be good for the next 10 years.
Followed instructions to the letter, but ended up only having the original Windows.iso file in the folder. I ran setup anyway and it worked. I now have windows 11 on a machine that previously failed the checks!
I think theres a much easier way to do this - worked for me a few months ago to u/g my win10pro to win11 - after downloading the win11 installer to USB, look for the \sources folder and delete the file "appraiserres.dll" - then when you run setup DON'T allow it to download updates during the install/upgrade (otherwise it re-downloads the check file and tells you you're unsupported again) - your system should upgrade fine - when its done you can use windows update as normal. works fine on my amd 6100 with no tpm etc and a couple of other older laptops. your mileage may vary, but I've had no probs.
The minimum CPU requirements might be an issue in the future. The kernel guys probably want to tweak the compiler flags to generate faster code, which may rely on CPUs newer instruction sets etc.
Nah. Newer instruction sets are makink maximum 10-15% difference in computing power according to Jim Keller... I have windows 11 on a 2010 Xeon... zero problems... duh, windows 11 is practically a windows 10 skin...
Does this method work for an i5 4200m?

Thanks Rich/CyberCPU Tech, this worked perfectly well, and I upgraded from Windows 10 Pro to 11 on a 7-year-old PC, in fact both Terminal/Powershell and Windows Security worked without the tweaks you mentioned around the end of the video. 👍👍

Glad it helped.
This is a great tutorial, and I'll probably give it a go on my i5-7400 system (approx 3 years old), as the processor doesn't meet Win11 requirements.
I have a feeling that Microsoft are going to push people into purchasing newer hardware they can ill afford. Not a good move by them, considering you've shown it can run on pretty much any reasonable system. 👍
It will run on anything that will run Windows 10 for sure. The hardware requirements are stupid.

Tip in powershell/command prompt:
Using the up or down arrow keys will cycle through the commands you've run recently.
This list stays until you close powershell/cmd.
Beautiful stuff you got going here - following your instructions, I hit a home run...
Though, in my case, I had to go through several tries - the issue was with failing updates. It finally worked after I chose the option to postpone updates till after the install... and now, I'm here on my sweet looking Windows 11 pro...
I'm running the updates wizard and all is going well..
The only issue with my HW is the CPU incompatibility...
Thanks, thanks, thanks...
It has been failing for me also. I chose not right now for the updates because I kept getting data error when it’s PASS HALFWAY TO BEING INSTALLED. So I’m doing this for by he fourth time and I hope it works.
It's been known for a while that pretty much anything dual core and up will run Windows 11. I've had it running on a 12 year old machine since they announced it. Of course many older computers will work better under W10 than W11. And Microsoft will supposedly put a watermark on the desktop of unsupported computers in a future update.
I don't really recommend a dual core. It will work but you will have high CPU usage most of the time. I don't even recommend a dual core in Windows 10.
@@STONE69_ A dual core i7 is still hyper threaded so it has 4 logical cores. With that said I have no idea why Intel made a dual core i7. I've seen that CPU before and it boggles my mind why they made it in the first place.

This is AWESOME!!! Thank you for the easy step by step video!!! I of course liked and subscribed =)
Dont forget that at anytime Microsoft could push an update which could disable a Win11 installed on unsupported hardware ...
So you probably need to disable any update on that kind of installation, and the risk then is far too high.
Risk of update bricking windows is always there... No problems running windows 7 today. And I know it's not the risk you were talking about, but it's not that hard to avoid viruses.
Really interesting, I have many Virtual Machines on a 4 years old Double Socket server that has CPUs not supported and this option may make me save a lot of money!
I have one question: what about Windows Updates?
Works well ?
Maybe in the future some update may lock your installation because of some incompatibility check ?
I think this issue is quite difficult to answer and may happend to be a big problem.
What's your opinion ?
good question
There is a simpler method. Once you have the Windows 11 .iso, use the free tool "Rufus" then when creating the bootable thumb drive you have the "Image option" to select a Windows installation with no TPM/no Secure boot.
This video might just set the world record for someone saying "go ahead" more than any other previous human being.
This is a highly educational video. However, I still have no desire to run Windows 11. Thanks. I've been running Linux Mint Cinnamon on my second PC, and I like it. Microsoft should get nervous. 😂
Linux mint cinnamon is by far the most polished distro in my opinion. Everything just works so seamlessly. Btw have you tried linux mint XFCE? it's way more responsive. Also i've found that peppermint OS is very very fast but it lacks quality of life improvements.
@@sifatullah7568 Thanks for the quick response. I haven't tried Mint XFCE, but I I'll try it next. What I do is to load different OS's on to external M.2 drives so whenever I want to try a new OS I only have to plug it into the USB port and reboot. 👍

2.Download Rufus tool
3.Plug USB
4.Open Rufus
5.Select ISO file
6.Under image option select extended windows 11 installation no TPM and no secure boot option and then click on start
7.Install windows 11 from USB and you are ready to go
should I leave everything else alone like the partition scheme as GPT?

Uhmm...Still testing it, I moved to windows 11 a couple of weeks ago and I already found a few problems like, I lost windows defender, lag on menus and task bar, Etc. All this trouble in a brand new PC, I don't know what other problems would I have on olders machines. I would not recommend to upgrade, not yet...I'm still thinking to go back to 10...wish I could go back to 7.
I show how to fix Windows defender in this video.
To restore your Security functions, open the PowerShell with administrative rights, then add the following commands
1) add-appxpackage -disabledevelopmentmode -register ((Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -allusers).InstallLocation + '\AppxManifest.xml')
2) Get-AppxPackage Microsoft.SecHealthUI -AllUsers | Reset-AppxPackage
Worked here. Cheers!
Thank you so very much! I was finally able to upgrade my HP EliteBook to match my Lenovo Yoga. Save me when running software for my client requiring an updated Windows OS. The instructions were easy to follow and the pauses were right on cue.
I tried installing Win 11 multiple times on my PC. It would not boot. This worked great on my Lenovo 720 with a AMD Rysen 1400. Terminal actually worked, didn't need to reinstall

15:59 "Vanguard is already notable for the low-level access it has to your system-it uses a kernel-mode driver that launches when Windows boots, whether you’re playing a game that requires it or not."

Win 11 cracks me up with these 'requirements'. You are 100% right, THEY SUCK! RUFUS was really quick to make removing them very easy. I have Win 11 deployed on several computers that have Legacy BIOS. One is an old AMD Phenom IIx4 system. One is running a Xeon E5-2430 CPU. One has an old Pentium III CPU. Honestly, I have less problems running Win 11 on Legacy systems than I did with Win 10.

Love these videos! They are so helpful. Wish I could find videos like yours on my other technical issues!
I don't know too much but I do know one thing unsupported device due to the fact that Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer and want you to throw away your old devices I would think so it's as if in the past I picked up a laptop that had a corrupted hard drive so I bought a a pre-install Windows 10 Pro on a computer and I wanted to run it on my laptop but every information I looked up online it says it's not possible mind you I placed it back on and it did work it's just a tactic that they want you just to buy a new computer so is it possible that Windows 11 is the same scenario sorry to make this story so long my question to you is this if I was to put Windows 11 but I wanted to build my own PC but would I need
Thank you, my old pc didn't have tpm or a suitable cpu, now I'm running Windows 11 Pro.
One comment I think is very important. If any of you are planning on installing Windows 11, it's defiantly advisable to do a full system backup. If anything goes wrong you don't lose what you've got. You can go back.
you would do that on any system 'upgrade' anyway, although I'd hardly call Windows 11 an upgrade
@@ant2312 If you're the type of user that spells "definitely" as "defiantly", then you "definitely" need to be reminded to make backups. 😉😃
I bought a computer with a core I5-6500 in it with windows 11 on it and couldnt install a bunch of drivers because i cant update. Thank you. This helps!
Thank you for the guide! It works (I have i5 4570) without any issues so far. I upgraded existing Windows 10 installation and I didn't even have to fix Terminal and Windows security. Everything works fine after upgrade.
I took my computer to a store to be repaired yesterday, and the guy who fixed it told me about this.
I would love the give this a try, but both of my computers have a lot of use.
My laptop can't be upgraded because of no TPM 2.0 and AMD Radeon R4 isn't supported.
I get that having Win 11 on older hardware that's 10 years+ could cause issues, as this is very much the case with my PC (APU and no TPM 2.0). But for a laptop/machine that is only 3 years old, I find it absolutely staggering.
Thank you. I am so pleased I figured out how to install Linux Mint alongside Win11! FTS.
This actually worked! Thank you sir!
