"Microsoft recommends 2 or more cores, so I'm gonna give mine 24" 😂 Another great video! I always get excited when I see the notification pop up in Discord... Now I just need to get a new server that can handle Rancher, Plex, Zoneminder AND Windows 11
Dont fill out the password field and you dont have to answer the 3 stupid questions. And after finishing the installation yout can press CTRL-ALT-DEL and there you can set a password..
In both your Windows 10 & your Windows 11 guides (Which I love, thank you for them) you miss 1 thing that is very important. It may be that it's a thing about old hardware (I'm on a 3rd Gen i7), I'm not sure, but when starting the VM to do the install I always have to make sure I'm in the console when it starts & fairly quickly hit a key to "Boot from disc" or else I have to reboot Proxmox because the VM won't stop. I consider this a fairly important step, but you've left it off both times, I assume because maybe it's not necessary if you are on more modern hardware, I'm not sure, but since the VM loads the Windows ISO as though it were an optical disc the Windows Images are designed to not boot automatically so you don't have to eject it midway through the install.
You need to add even though you mentioned in the beginning of the video that you need to have Proxmox 7 it needs to be 7.0-13 i had 7.0-11 and that version does not have the TPM option in VM creation.
@@blackthebanner when I try that, it just runs and tells me my system is up to date, even though it still says 7.0-11 in the banner. Do I need to have a subscription to get it to upgrade to 7.0-13. Also, I just downloaded PVE yesterday. Why isn't it already the latest version?
3:18 You can skip a step. Right click the link > copy link address > Click download from URL button in proxmox > paste the link This will have your proxmox machine fetch the iso itself instead of you downloading and uploading it
What is your reasoning behind using VirtIO Block vs SCSi? Everyone else (including you) have posted tutorials indicating the use of SCSI as a most. What changed?
7:50 perfect...install windows 11 here by selecting the windows 10 driver which is a red hat controller to run on a hypervisor built on debian...got it 👍
I'm not an "I hate change!" kinda guy, but I never upgrade to a new full version for a while - there are always bugs and changes, I'm happy to let the early adopters work them out for me and then join them later.
few extra tips too: 1. if you run the other setup thats on the root of the virtio cd, it will install the qemu agent AND drivers, 2. if you select the graphics as virtio GPU, after you install the drivers or select them during the windows install, it will allow resizing of your screens properly in the html console
Thank you very much. We just moved to Proxmox from ESXi. Loving Proxmox. Had an issue with Windows 11 boot loop after install. Could not shutdown the VM ~ had to kill -9 the vm in order to delete it and start over. Changed CPU type to Default and not to Host. Windoze 11 now installed.
Nice guide! Would you mind considering making a video on how to add SSD cache or tiered storage in proxmox? I am having a hard time doing it correctly. Thanks!
Been a life-long Windows user but to be honest, I think I'm done with it. The amount of invasive tracking and data collection is staggering. Next stop is Linux for me
Just to add one more bit of useful info. I'm running Proxmox version 8.1.4 and they added a new option under the OS tab when creating the VM that lets you add an additional drive for VirtIO drivers right from the start! So we can skip the additional step in this video of adding this additional drive.
your video is 4 days to late for me haha already found info to do it but it runs like crap because I messed some parameters so with the magic of virtualisation I will trash my VM and try again with your nice video! thank you very much. its very clear
Dude you have to edit out the part where you hit NEXT by accident BEFORE you install the nw driver. I saw you click it, I clicked it (before adding NW driver) and the whole process went for a while then bricked when it could not find a network driver and at that point, since it was a proxmox QEMU failure, you can't stop the VM and everything (yes your entire proxmox system) is borked, you have to reboot the whole thing to get that pesky Windoze vm to stop. Ha. UPDATE: I waited a bit and was able to kill the VM by opening the console and using the NOVNC shutdown button... then Shift-F10 to open command prompt... type OOBE\BYPASSNRO, then it reboots and lets you skip the network stuff, and you can update the driver and do a windows update. sigh! Other than that, VERY HELPFUL video, thanks much!
I just created a Win 11 VM in Proxmox a few days ago. I haven't had much time to mess around with it, but my initial impressions are positive. *knocks on wood*
I was just thinking of this! Amazing timing. Any chance you could make a video about creating a windows 10/11 vm video with OVMF and KVM? That'd be an amazing video! Thanks
@@TechnoTim If you make that video please mention Intel's GPU virtualization (GVT-d). With that, I was able to pass the Intel onboarded IGP through the VM with working HW acceleration and OpenGL. This thing makes the difference, cool stuff.
I'm on proxmox version 7.0-11 and it doesn't have the tpm option , I guess it may be upgrade or reboot time. Look like you need the latest version 7.0-13 for it to work ? , and my 7.0-11 is upgrade and rebooted and still no tpm option . Forgot to add the no-subscription repository , now on 7.0-13 and got the tpm option
Can you please do a video on setting up the audio or how to get the audio working for different OS's on Proxmox. A big thank you in advance as I'm new to all this VM stuff/world and have no idea what I'm doing wrong.
This is wonderful. With so many updates that have happened, would you update this? it would be so helpful as I like to follow proxmox specific recommendations but they are not directly clear on running windows (or they have reverted / changed info recently)
hi can you please answer my question, I would like to have windows 11 and mac OS in one computer, I have a 1TB SSD right now I have windows 11, so can I create a partition for proxmox and install it on it, will the data on my windows 11 get lost?
Followed this exactly, however on boot it tries to Start PXE over IPV4 and then start HTTP Boot over IPv4 and at the top it just says Press any key to boot from CD or DVD but that doesn't work.
Hello Tim. I've followed your guide. However my Windows 11 VM is unstable. From time to time I get a blue screen error, and then it reboots. It already happened while playing with GPU passedthrough, with no GPU passthrough, using VNC and even RDP. I've tried changing disk to scsi, ide and even sata. And the same happened. I've searched online, but hasn't seen anything really useful. At devices manager, I see two unknown devices with no drivers installed, looking at the devices, they show something like "UsbStub". Don't know if it could be related. Have you seen this scenario anywhere? Have any idea about what coult it be?
Like a lot of your videos, you tell us that you are choosing certain settings, but never tell us why. For example, why are you setting the machine type to q35? What does that mean / do?
Thanks a lot @TechnoTim! Even after more than 2 years, this is still relevant. Biggest delta to Proxmox 8.1 is the integrated VirtIO CDDrive dialog within the VM creation wizard. Cheers from the EU!
Thanks for the video. Is there a way to change the resolution in the consolve view? It used to be in Windows 10 that we could choose a virtIO display device driver but now this option isn't there anymore.
installed w11 today and checked the ceph pool i put it in, shows 33.72GiB usage(OS shows 28.0GB).. Now that is after it booted up and i had installed the virtio agent/drivers ( nothing else ). Note for other, suggest using the Virtio-gpu video driver so you can change resolution. Also, load the network drivers like he does otherwise you have to do the bypass thing which is a pain. Great vid!
Im waiting until its been out for about 6 months at least. they say it has crappy performance for gaming. I do have a beta running in a hyper-v vm on a hyper-v test server. I will definately make the task bar fill the screen. i hate it sitting in the middle. you maximize anything and have empty space on the bottom right corners. why, why does microsoft have to mess with things. they did this crap with windows 8 when it came out making it super annoying for desktop pc users with their full screen start menu and removing the classic start...such that you had to run classic shell to get it back (3rd party app) same with w11. the apps are already out there to make it better, aka normal to what we are used to. why cant MS make it better, let it be how its always been so they don't confuse the heck of the majority of people.
From the benchmarks I saw, there's little difference in average gaming performance in most games. In fact, the 1% lows seemed improved. People trash the new stuff every time a new edition of Windows is released. Just wait a few months to a year. It'll be fine.
I have a Beelink S12 Pro miniPC and I followed your video and it's really great but can someone tell me if I can output that windows VM on my TV thorough hdmi?
Hey bro, keep getting this...dsDxe: failed to start Boot0002 "UEFI QEHIJ DVD-ROH QH00003 " from PciR00t /Pci : Time out... im using a 7th Gen i5 mini PC.. can you help please?
Thanks for the video, I'd like to add that the skip the microsoft account button might had dissappear from the OOBE, if this is the case , shift + F10 > this will bring CMD > type: OOBE\BYPASSNRO This wil restart the system and allow you to skip
That's really useful, because even though I am not going to use a real Windows machine ever again once I moved away from Windows 10 on my newest rig, but I do want to test stuff in Windows, so it's useful to be able to virtualize it. What I am a bit puzzled about: shouldn't we have a separate TPM2.0 storage? If I happen to want to remove my hard drive, because I want a new blank one (or if I want to provision a system on demand), shouldn't I have TPM separate in order to not remove it, too? Great video though.
I personally find Windows11 to be a steaming pile of toxic matter. Sometime ago, I let one system update to 11 and waited too long before reverting back and had to re-install Win10. A little while back, I must have been half asleep and updated it. It is a system I use for special usage and only need it now and then. I boot it up several weeks later and was shocked to see Win11 running. Was too late to revert back to Win10. I am a techie and absolutely hate the new forced interface. Each update makes it even worse. The system is very customized and will take quite some time to rebuild. Finding the time to do so, is not easy. They keep moving and hiding stuff which is very frustrating. Would almost rather run Windows 3.0.
I still have no idea on how to route the ports do vms... i tried having proxmox then a windows 11 vm as my main pc passing the gpu to it, everything worked fine but when i made a lxc container for my docker containers and tried to route ports 443 and 80 i had no success and gave up... T_T
@Kodaology thanks! Nevertheless in my case it is a bit trickier since that needs to stop all current VMs and one of mine is pfsense virtualized... therefore i have to undo the isp's router bypass and do it again once proxmox is updated. I was waiting for the right time to update it but this could be a good excuse to do it finally
I believe we will need new video since Proxmox 7.1 change the setting and its now support Windows 11. My previous windows 11 installation broken upon promox 7.1 upgrade.
really nice video Tim, what cpu setting would you recommend on my 1950x threadripper because win 11 official does not support it because host will need a hack
Very nice 👍 fTPM is neat-o! 5:04 -- Is 'discard' for SSD storage too resource hungry? Noticed that it wasnt enabled. 5:18 -- Rather helpful to hear that it is Ok to leave CPU type as default/kvm64. Thank you. At the end, would we have installed QEMU guest agent? Kindest regards, neighbours.
Thanks TT. I used this guide to install windows 10, waiting until after the install to enable the network drivers allowed me to skip windows horrible mandatory requirement that I connect it to an account. Next up, GPU passthrough.
Win11's trying to catch up with MacOS on the TPM/Q35 change.. Guess I'm better off using Prox7 given it needs the TPM feature... Maybe Mr Sherlock might have some advice for 6 if he's into anything beyond Fruit like OS's on QEMU😏
Just made a new Proxmox server with updated hardware. Installed Windows 11 on it thanks to this video. Due to Windows 11 I have moved to POP OS as my main desktop, using Cinnamon. I am dual booting. A few months back I upgraded 10 to 11, but am very rarely in that side. This Win11 VM is to have a common VM regaurdless of wich machine I am using, Main desktop, mentioned before, or my laptop running Ubuntu. I plan on using Tailscale to have the VM accessible where ever I am. I was using Virtualbox on both Windnows and POP OS pointed to the same VM. Something happened in the last month, the Windows side has the VM running dog slow. This happened Sep 2023, when last I tried to upgrade to Win 11, I did reinstall Win 10 at that time. This time, I am moving forward, with a VM in Proxmox instead of Virtualbox. Also, one less system to update, 2 if you count the VM on my laptop.
Hello. If I understand well, for example, installing a windows 10 VM in the proxmox with off board video card passthrough the HDMI of the video card will work fine for a send the audio and video to a receiver like a dedicated windows machine already do? Thanks in advance!
hmm... Tim... There's something we need to tell you : you have a slightly creepy grin on your face when you said "24". No offense, but I thought we should inform you ^^. Thanks for your video.
This guide doesn't tell you that you end up with a ridiculous 1024*768 display resolution in the windows 11 VM. Useless. Conflicting solutions online. Argh
Hi Tim, thanks for this a great tutorial. I do have a question that is Proxmox capable to virtualize the the TPM hardware on my server for the guest OS instead of using an emulator?
In this video, you've shown how to virtualise Windows 11 using Proxmox 7. Question for you - how do you change the screen resolution? I am running Proxmox 7.3-3 using this "guide/tutorial" and I was able to finally get it up and running (it took a while), but now the display is stuck at 1280x800 resolution and there doesn't appear to be a way to change that (at least not through the normal means/methods). Your help is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Anyone experiencing Windows 11 shutting down on its own? Looking at event viewer I get a kernel-power error (41). That same thing happening on Windows Server 2019 Standard.
I totally new to proxmox and after a few hickups it is now running, sort of. Problem: Now don't have sound and no audio device. Suggestions are appreciated.
Why are people always installing the -gt.msi... 😂 The last one (the exe) is supposed to install that msi + some spice tools, like folder sharing and stuff that you would need to setup manually
Windows 11 is a new OS in the same way that 8.1 was a "new" OS when compared to Windows 8. Windows 11 is just the Windows 10 Sun Valley UI update with new name and some upgrade requirements.
If I wanted Mac or Linux I’d have them I don’t want a half assed windows version. Riding 10 out till I can get the hang of Linux then I’m done w giving Microsoft money period.
bro i can use this environment using on a single computer ( i7 10th Gen , 32 gb ram, 2 graphic cards and 1 monitor samsung G9 "49 ) and using macOS an linux at the same time ? or i need the second computer to acess?
I installed windows 11 on Proxmox 7 just like you instructed in the video. I can't change the default resolution from 800x600. I have windows 10 vm running on the same Proxmox server and with a 2560x1440 resolution. Any thoughts?
Tim, I was successful in loading Proxmox 7 natively , onto my laptop, a Lenovo Yoga 730. However, I cannot get either Wi-Fi or a USB ethernet adapter (USB C hub) running. Can you tell me the best way to do this? I imagine this is a driver issue. I don’t know who to contact but I haven’t been able to find anyone to help me. Thanks!
Unbelievable that 64GB RAM is recommended just to run an OS. I installed it with 32GB and it ate 96% of it before I even did anything. Talk about bloatware.
hey Techno Tim I am trying to run a windows 11 autopilot test on a proxmox VM, I am able to install windows 11 without any issue on proxmox 8 and a standard windows 11 iso from microsoft but I am running into an issue where windows system reset function fails to execute on the VM have you run into a use case issue like this before?
Fantastic job Tim! I have been contemplating about installing Proxmox for some time now and the BIG desktop was predestined to run multiple systems anyway. I tried the MS sub system method, but didn't like it and it was too messy while making mistakes. The only thing I'd like is to be able to use the Image I made with Macrium Reflect of the original Windows 10 and restore it into this Proxmox version. Is that even possible? I will be experimenting the next few days with this topic. Anyway, thanks for saving me AGAIN. Keep up the good work! Q: Which nut is worth the most? A: Cash-ew. Q: What kind of nut was on the moon? A: An astronut. Q: How do you catch an elephant? A: Act like a peanut!

24 cpu cores for Win 11 VM !!😮, Also what happens if your Proxmox server CPU is not supported?
Thanks for this excellent video.
It just tells you it can't start. Switch to a generic ones.
Perfect concise explanation ;-)
That's really useful, because even though I am not going to use a real Windows machine ever again once I moved away from Windows 10 on my newest rig, but I do want to test stuff in Windows, so it's useful to be able to virtualize it.
What I am a bit puzzled about: shouldn't we have a separate TPM2.0 storage? If I happen to want to remove my hard drive, because I want a new blank one (or if I want to provision a system on demand), shouldn't I have TPM separate in order to not remove it, too?
Great video though.
Don't see the need for Win 11. I have software that is held hostage on Win 7 and still working on moving it.
I personally find Windows11 to be a steaming pile of toxic matter. Sometime ago, I let one system update to 11 and waited too long before reverting back and had to re-install Win10. A little while back, I must have been half asleep and updated it. It is a system I use for special usage and only need it now and then. I boot it up several weeks later and was shocked to see Win11 running. Was too late to revert back to Win10. I am a techie and absolutely hate the new forced interface. Each update makes it even worse. The system is very customized and will take quite some time to rebuild. Finding the time to do so, is not easy. They keep moving and hiding stuff which is very frustrating. Would almost rather run Windows 3.0.
Great, was struggling with this. Followed this and now TPM detected. Thank you.
I still have no idea on how to route the ports do vms... i tried having proxmox then a windows 11 vm as my main pc passing the gpu to it, everything worked fine but when i made a lxc container for my docker containers and tried to route ports 443 and 80 i had no success and gave up... T_T
Amazing video! Thanks so much!
Glad you liked it!
Good thing that hacks do work with earlier Proxmox versions than 7.x
This is exactly what I'm looking for! I want to virtualize a pc for streaming media and was torn between windows 10 and windows 11.
I'm curious, what about Brunch/Chrome OS is installed on Proxmox VE?
You can if you use the x86 version
I tried this and realize its too much of a hassle, and ending up building a itx gaming pc
why limited yourself you could make a video on a windows 11 demo youll make more views, come on ;) !
Just for Proxmox v7? I can not see the TPM option on v6.4 of Proxmox ...
@Kodaology thanks! Nevertheless in my case it is a bit trickier since that needs to stop all current VMs and one of mine is pfsense virtualized... therefore i have to undo the isp's router bypass and do it again once proxmox is updated. I was waiting for the right time to update it but this could be a good excuse to do it finally
I believe we will need new video since Proxmox 7.1 change the setting and its now support Windows 11. My previous windows 11 installation broken upon promox 7.1 upgrade.
You can patch out the hardware requirements from the installer iso.
really nice video Tim, what cpu setting would you recommend on my 1950x threadripper because win 11 official does not support it because host will need a hack
Just use the default one, not host
@@TechnoTim thx for the replay, just curious if then also power states will work, or other features as you mentioned in the video.
Thank You works 🚀 but Win11 on this machine, needs to be auto boot of this vm/pc? // as a main machine only
Very nice 👍 fTPM is neat-o!
5:04 -- Is 'discard' for SSD storage too resource hungry? Noticed that it wasnt enabled.
5:18 -- Rather helpful to hear that it is Ok to leave CPU type as default/kvm64. Thank you.
At the end, would we have installed QEMU guest agent?
Kindest regards, neighbours.
Thanks TT. I used this guide to install windows 10, waiting until after the install to enable the network drivers allowed me to skip windows horrible mandatory requirement that I connect it to an account. Next up, GPU passthrough.
Win11's trying to catch up with MacOS on the TPM/Q35 change.. Guess I'm better off using Prox7 given it needs the TPM feature... Maybe Mr Sherlock might have some advice for 6 if he's into anything beyond Fruit like OS's on QEMU😏
Has anyone tried a gpu pass through with windows 11?
Just made a new Proxmox server with updated hardware. Installed Windows 11 on it thanks to this video. Due to Windows 11 I have moved to POP OS as my main desktop, using Cinnamon. I am dual booting. A few months back I upgraded 10 to 11, but am very rarely in that side. This Win11 VM is to have a common VM regaurdless of wich machine I am using, Main desktop, mentioned before, or my laptop running Ubuntu. I plan on using Tailscale to have the VM accessible where ever I am. I was using Virtualbox on both Windnows and POP OS pointed to the same VM. Something happened in the last month, the Windows side has the VM running dog slow. This happened Sep 2023, when last I tried to upgrade to Win 11, I did reinstall Win 10 at that time. This time, I am moving forward, with a VM in Proxmox instead of Virtualbox. Also, one less system to update, 2 if you count the VM on my laptop.
Hello. If I understand well, for example, installing a windows 10 VM in the proxmox with off board video card passthrough the HDMI of the video card will work fine for a send the audio and video to a receiver like a dedicated windows machine already do?
Thanks in advance!
hmm... Tim... There's something we need to tell you : you have a slightly creepy grin on your face when you said "24". No offense, but I thought we should inform you ^^. Thanks for your video.
😈
Good video. Thanks, Tim just got proxmox set up on my machine and created a Windows 11 Vm following your instructions. This was very helpful.
Is possible for you to make a video on how to enable intel turbo box on proxmox, well if is even possible. I couldn’t find any guides.
This guide doesn't tell you that you end up with a ridiculous 1024*768 display resolution in the windows 11 VM. Useless. Conflicting solutions online. Argh
You can configure this in the VMs BIOS or just use RDP. No one should use the web console for anything other than an emergency.
Hi Tim, thanks for this a great tutorial. I do have a question that is Proxmox capable to virtualize the the TPM hardware on my server for the guest OS instead of using an emulator?
In this video, you've shown how to virtualise Windows 11 using Proxmox 7.
Question for you - how do you change the screen resolution?
I am running Proxmox 7.3-3 using this "guide/tutorial" and I was able to finally get it up and running (it took a while), but now the display is stuck at 1280x800 resolution and there doesn't appear to be a way to change that (at least not through the normal means/methods).
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Thank you.
Hi. What about vmware vs proxmox and is proxmox for free (no payable licences except for support)? Thanks
Anyone experiencing Windows 11 shutting down on its own? Looking at event viewer I get a kernel-power error (41). That same thing happening on Windows Server 2019 Standard.
if ur running windows and using proxmox on windows, please tell me how to download it or atleast install it on my pc please
You don’t install proxmox on windows, you run windows on proxmox
@@TechnoTim oh, i thought you can use proxmox on windows
Haha! Your answer to my chat message at the end, love it! :D
Haha! I’m scared too!
I totally new to proxmox and after a few hickups it is now running, sort of. Problem: Now don't have sound and no audio device. Suggestions are appreciated.
Why are people always installing the -gt.msi... 😂 The last one (the exe) is supposed to install that msi + some spice tools, like folder sharing and stuff that you would need to setup manually
Windows 11 is a new OS in the same way that 8.1 was a "new" OS when compared to Windows 8. Windows 11 is just the Windows 10 Sun Valley UI update with new name and some upgrade requirements.
If I wanted Mac or Linux I’d have them I don’t want a half assed windows version. Riding 10 out till I can get the hang of Linux then I’m done w giving Microsoft money period.
Great video as always Tim!
Glad you enjoyed it
bro i can use this environment using on a single computer ( i7 10th Gen , 32 gb ram, 2 graphic cards and 1 monitor samsung G9 "49 ) and using macOS an linux at the same time ? or i need the second computer to acess?
Need to virtualize Windows 11 to run BlueIris on. thx for this. The TMP was the part i wasn't sure about.
I installed windows 11 on Proxmox 7 just like you instructed in the video. I can't change the default resolution from 800x600. I have windows 10 vm running on the same Proxmox server and with a 2560x1440 resolution. Any thoughts?
Trying installing the full virtio exe and then shut down and start up, not reboot. Otherwise use remote desktop to remote in
Tim, I was successful in loading Proxmox 7 natively , onto my laptop, a Lenovo Yoga 730. However, I cannot get either Wi-Fi or a USB ethernet adapter (USB C hub) running. Can you tell me the best way to do this? I imagine this is a driver issue. I don’t know who to contact but I haven’t been able to find anyone to help me. Thanks!
Unbelievable that 64GB RAM is recommended just to run an OS. I installed it with 32GB and it ate 96% of it before I even did anything. Talk about bloatware.
hey Techno Tim I am trying to run a windows 11 autopilot test on a proxmox VM, I am able to install windows 11 without any issue on proxmox 8 and a standard windows 11 iso from microsoft but I am running into an issue where windows system reset function fails to execute on the VM have you run into a use case issue like this before?
Hi Tim, how can i Install Windows 11 and Hackintosh on a Laptop with Proxmox? Is it possible?
Fantastic job Tim!
I have been contemplating about installing Proxmox for some time now and the BIG desktop was predestined to run multiple systems anyway. I tried the MS sub system method, but didn't like it and it was too messy while making mistakes. The only thing I'd like is to be able to use the Image I made with Macrium Reflect of the original Windows 10 and restore it into this Proxmox version. Is that even possible? I will be experimenting the next few days with this topic. Anyway, thanks for saving me AGAIN. Keep up the good work!

@bananafartmanmd8775 sorry 😞, I've been so busy with Proxmox and building new Truenas machines that I just haven't had time.
Win 11 isn't a redesign, just a new theme
