Windows 10: windows 11 saying apps that previously ran just fine are now unable to run on this pc.

ok I'm running a dell g15 and i just upgraded ram to 64gb. I know the ram has nothing to do with it but now any program i download will either not run the setup for it or windows will say this app cant run on this pc. now the app ran perfectly fine before and i have done the compatibility thing, sfc, redownloaded, repaired, and even moved it. but windows is still not letting me run it. it is also doing the same thing for a few other programs and apps i got from Microsoft store some came from else where too

:)

 

Splash screen says "this PC is unable to run windows 10" - Compatibility report says "You're Good to Go"

I have a weird issue where the Windows 10 App is giving different information depending on what screen I am on.

When I first open the app it says "Unfortunately, this PC is unable to run Windows 10" (See screen shot below)



So I click on the "View Report" to check the compatibility issue and I get a clean bill of health saying "You're good to go, Your PC will work with Windows 10"



What gives? I have not seen the temp folder showing that any files are getting downloaded in preparation for an install.

Background:

• The first time the compatibility report ran I had the widely reported issue of the CPU being reported as incompatible. I followed the instructions for forcing the patch for the App to be installed and I forced the compatibility checker to be re-run by following
  the steps over here https://www.infopackets.com/news/9619/how-fix-cpu-not-compatible-windows-10-error (steps that are also suggested on this forum)
  • for whatever reason I got a confirmation saying that the compatibility checker had run in the command prompt but when I opened the app the last run day was from over a month ago and it still listed my CPU as being incompatible
  • Tried several more times with the same result
• When the Launch date happened the App must have run itself as the "last run" date changed to 7/29 and the compatibility check says I am all good. But the splash screen still says this PC is unable to run windows 10
• Uninstalling the app and re-downloading the necessary KB's doesn't fix the problem

System info:

• Lenovo W520 4270CTO
• CPU: i7-2960XM @ 2.70 GHz
• Video Card - Intel HD Graphics
• Video Card Discrete - NVIDIA Quadro 2000M
• Windows 7 SP1 64 bit

Any thoughts / suggestions? Thanks!

 

Windows 11 says compatible, but in instalation says it isnt?

The very first step, before running the buggy PC Health Check app, is to see if your CPU is on the approved list for Windows 11. Is it?

 

Print Management for Windows 11

Hi Robinson,

Thank you for your help. I tried the method you suggested and get the following results:

Step 1: Run Windows Terminal (Admin) -- OK

Step 2: I ran the command and get the following error:

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

Version: 10.0.22000.1



Image Version: 10.0.22000.376





Error: 87



A Windows capability name was not recognized.

Step 3: I assumed the Print Management console was not previously installed on my computer, and ran the installation command. I received a message saying the installation was completed successfully.

Step 4: I ran the command to check and get the following error:

Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool

Version: 10.0.22000.1



Image Version: 10.0.22000.376





Error: 87



A Windows capability name was not recognized.



The DISM log file can be found at C:\WINDOWS\Logs\DISM\dism.log

I tried the other command and the Print Management console was listed as "Staged" and not "Installed".

I'm still unable to run printmanagement.msc from Windows Run.

Are you familiar with this error? Can you help me with it? Thank you so much!
