Windows 10: PC Upgrade for WIN 11

I am replacing my old non-WIN-11 compatible motherboard and processor in order to update to WIN 11. After the update can I re-install the current WIN 10 SDD and boot back into WIN 10 and then update to WIN 11? I am assuming a reactivation of WIN 10 will be required first.

is hardware OK (Win 7) for upgrade to windows 10

I think in one of the other PC with win 7 or win 8.1 I run media creators tools and in some step prompt/found graphics card not supported... for win 10. I didn't found alone reading specs of win 10, but the tool says me... after changed graphics card the tool said all OK and continued OK with upgrade... That I ask to reach this step in this current PC - win 7 - must be all OK for the upgrade? Or must continue to upgrade to show this?
and got to point

• UPGRADE this PC now
• Create media(DVD, USB stick, ISO)

is hardware OK (Win 7) for an upgrade to windows 10 for this PC???

 

Upgrades needed to be compatible for Win 11

As you know, only PCs meeting certain hardware requirements can be upgraded routinely to Win 11. Most PCs can actually run it- and people have installed Win 11 on 'incompatible' PCs- see below. There are two tools to check compatibility that can identify issues- given below. How to check if your PC will get Windows 11 update | TechRadar - try running the app listed there. Not sure if your PC is compatible with Windows 11? Here's how to check - CNET - gives another tool and a list of requirements. The two tools are conveniently listed here: I thought my computer has unsupported CPU for Windows 11 installation? - post #6 Note: which generation of CPU you have is key to whether you will be able to upgrade routinely or not. Even if you can't fully meet Win 11 hardware specs (imposed by the installer rather than the O/S itself in some respects) there are work arounds to effect Win 11 installation. Example: I thought my computer has unsupported CPU for Windows 11 installation?

 

Upgrade to Win 11

Trying to upgrade laptop to Win 11. My processor is listed on Microsoft compatibility list as one that will work with Win 11, but the health check says it won't and therefore will not allow upgrade. All other items on list are ticked green. Any advice please?

Thanks.
