Windows 10: app incompatibility upgrading win. 10 to 11 ---- frustration.

Spent hours upgrading from w.10 to w.11. Each time the install process got to over 90%, but then stalled. Searched this forum and the web, then tried suggestion A, then researched some more and tried B, C, etc.. FINALLY the upgrade worked after un-installing 3 apps:Team ViewerNitroVM playerThen ran the troubleshooter for updates, which automatically fixed something have no idea???. Finally, W.11 is now installed and working well. I wish this process would have been easier.

Win 11 incompatible with my computer

You can check the compatibility of your PC with either a tool from MS or a 3rd party tool. These are widely documented here and elsewhere. Methods of installing Win 11 on incompatible PCs are also widely documented. I remember reading that there then may be a risk upgrades would not follow. As to whether you actually think there would be any practical benefit of upgrading... given Win 11 still has to receive the next upgrade for its taskbar not to be missing features familiar in Win 10 for example.. well, that's your choice of course.

 

Upgrading to Win 10 - after upgrading incompatible graphics card


I've managed to upgrade some of my home PC's from Win 7 or Win 8 to Wn 10 without any significant problems, but I am having major difficulty upgrading one of my PC's.

It is running Win 7 Home 32-bit and when I originally ran the Windows 10 upgrade advisor, it indicated that I could not upgrade as my NVidia GEForce 6600 graphics card was incompatible with Windows 10.

I tried various workarounds, using suggestions on this and other sites, to upgrade with the GEForce card but none were successful. So I purchased and installed a new graphics card - an AMD Radeon R7 240, which should be Win 10 compatible.

I then re-ran the Win 10 upgrade advisor - it still said that I couldn't upgrade as the "GeForce 6600 card" was incompatible - even though it was no longer installed!

I checked the Device Manager and the graphics card was clearly showing as being the AMD card. I then explicitly uninstalled any NVidia drivers/software using the Control Panel/Program uninstall - still unable to upgrade to Win 10. I also ran the Wagnard tools "Display driver uninstaller" and removed any NVidia software/drivers - still unable to upgrade. I am using the latest drivers from the AMD website.

I also tried to upgrade using the Media Creation tool and a Win 7 image from DVD (previously this also failed to work and gave the incompatible graphics card error); this seemed to work up to a point, but after a reboot it wanted me to select a keyboard layout but neither my usb keyboard nor mouse would function and the installation froze. On rebooting the OS reverted to Win 7 (and the keyboard/mouse worked ok).

I want to upgarde to Win 10 rather than do a fresh install, but am now unsure what to do - I keep getting the "Incompatible GEForce graphics card" message anytime I run the Win 10 advisor tool (even after downloading it again from the MS website).

Any suggestions as to how I can resolve this issue and finally upgrade?
