    Upgrade to Windows 11


    Hi,My current PC cannot be upgraded to Windows 11 because the older hardware is not compatible. I am forced into buying hardware to build a new PC. My current PC has Windows 10 Pro "installed from 'OEM' media". I know the Product ID, CD Key, and ProductKey. Will I also be forced to buy Windows 11 for my new PC, or is there a way to install Windows 11 on my new PC using my already purchased Windows 10 on my old PC? Thank you, Dave

    :)

    Upgrading to windows 11

    I have a few questions about windows 11...

    1. How many GB it is? when my pc suggested the upgrade yesterday, it said it's about 4GB just want to be sure.
    2. I'm using a windows 10 pro so if I upgrade, will it upgrade to a windows 11 pro?

    Upgrade to Windows 11

    I want to upgrade my OS from Windows 10 to Windows 11. I have run the compatibility software and got the message that says my Windows 10 software is not compatible with upgrading to Windows 11. I'm looking for a point & click application that will make my Windows 10 OS upgradable to Windows 11 or a file that will provide step-by-step instructions on how to accomplish the upgrade to Windows 11. I expect a list of files/applications that will not run in Windows 11 because my PC is not capable of running the new applications w/o hardware upgrades.
