  1. Having a problem upgrading to windows 11 despite meeting requirements


    Hi there I have just recently upgraded my desktop pc and wanted to go with windows 11 for it since support for 10 is ending soon, however when I attempted to install it I was told I needed to enable TPM 2.0, makes sense as that is a requirement so I opened up my system bios found the setting for TPM 2.0 and turned it on, then I attempted to install again and was met with the same error, after a couple hours and a rather irritating headache I gave up and installed a copy of windows 10 to see if maybe I could direct upgrade from there, but when it got to the stage of checking system requirements

    Why can't my Processor meet requirement for a Win 11 Upgrade ???

    I'm confused about a notification from Microsoft about upgrading to win 11. The notification said my PC doesn't meet a requirement which makes 0 sense. It says my CPU isn't on an approved list of CPUs. But my processor is crazy fast. How is this possible? Below is a screenshot of what it claims I require although again it makes 0 sense. Can someone tell me if this is a joke from Microsoft or is this a mistake? Is win 11 all that and better than 10?

    My PC meets the requirements and still cannot upgrade to Windows 11

    If your device meets the requirements, you can use the Windows upgrade assistant. But if it does not meet the requirements, then do not upgrade to Windows 11.

    Having a problem upgrading to windows 11 despite meeting requirements

    PC doesn't currently meet the minimum system requirements for Win 11

    That's not the issue. This issue is that I've had this HP notebook since November 2019, and the only message I've seen about Win 11 has been that the computer meets the requirements Win 11. Then, today I get the message that this computer doesn't meet the requirements of Win 11. What's up with that? I'm not planning to upgrade to Win 11 on this HP notebook, but I'm wondering why the message changed.
