    Cannot get Windows to acknowledge system compatibility


    I recently went through the process of converting my OS drive to GPT, enabling TPM and Secure Boot.Now when I run the Windows Health Check App it confirms my PC is suitable for Windows 11. However in the Windows Update screen I keep getting the warning that my system is not compatible. How can I get Windows 10 to acknowledge that the minimum requirements are now met?

    :)

  2. Compatibility problems

    Hi,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting your query. Your interest in Windows 10 is much appreciated.

    This issue might be due to corrupted or missing System files.

    I suggest you to perform the below troubleshooting steps and check.

    Method 1: Run the SFC.

    System File Checker is a utility in Windows that allows users to scan for corruptions in Windows system files and restore corrupted files.

    Follow the below steps:


    • Right click on the Start button, click on
      Command Prompt (Admin).

    • Type “sfc /scannow” without quotes and hit
      Enter.

    • After the scan, restart the computer.

    • Now check for the issue.

    Also, I suggest you to check with the compatibility of the program on Windows 10.

    Windows Compatibility Center

    Hope this information is helpful. Kindly update the status of the issue, we will be happy to help you.

    • Download the updated driver from the manufacturer’s website.

      Properties then tap or click the Compatibility tab.
