Years ago in the dark ages before you were born, I was writing BASIC algorithms which would fit into a small pocket computer and I could take these to any construction job site anywhere in the country and use them to fabricate all manner of piping connections with enough accuracy that the fit up and the welding times and the consumables were drastically cut with every single job.... I'm a working man. I put on boots and gloves to go out and earn my living. I don't sit in air conditioned offices in a suit and tie and nor do I spend time reading books or attending colleges or seminars or any learning institutions to stay up to date with the 'speed of light' technology of computing..... That's 'Your' job. My job is to be smart enough to have an idea which I can get up and running with the help of a PC using Microsoft products and then to use it as I choose to use it.... AS I CHOOSE TO USE IT.
Can you see the point I'm trying to make? For my needs, I would ditch every PC I have in front of me right now (4) because they are totally useless. I was able to do MORE 30 years ago than I can do today. I do NOT care the least just what new fancy stuff MS is shoving on to us because it gives me nothing to help me anymore. Can I travel the country to any work site and pull out my top pocket computer and then get to work as I once did? NO.

I have been with Windows since1985; the first time it was available. Deep disappointment my opinion. Not all of us can afford to upgrade computers on a daily, monthly, or yearly level. Retired folks, like me, are thankful Microsoft is giving Win 10 users a free Win 11 update. The slap in the face comes when you can't have it because your device is -inferior-. That is an insult I can not ignore. Microsoft, don't cut us out!

I was able to bypass the TPM and CPU checks on install. Even though my PC is -not supported- I find it works very well. Infact it works better than windows 10. I can easily install a TPM module but the CPU is an Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-4790K it is still not supported. I find that a little ridiculous. It's an i7 ! lol That is a sure fire way to lose customers. All operating systems should be backward compatible.

Cause my thinkpad have
-TPM 2.0 must be supported
-CPU Intel core i7-3667
-It supporting secure Boot
-It have 8gb of memory system
-System disk is 240gb
-The processor has two or more cores; processor cores 2
-The processor clock speed is 2.5GHz
The only thing that my PC isn't supporting is CPU. if I try to install it might work...

My pc runs genshin impact 4k 60fps smoothly. Windows pc health checker says my pc doesn-t meet the requirements. There could be a way around it. I have an i7 , 32GB ddr3, gtx1650 super. Yeah bit dated pc but an os should install.

It is ridiculous that Microsoft is forcing these stringent system requirements. I have older server-processor-based PCs (XEON E5 Series) that are still very fast and viable. Microsoft needs to completely reconsider.

Microsoft should lower the bar to include 7th generation intel processors (and possibly 6th gen). I would guess that the majority of PCs around the globe today would NOT fit their current support criteria for Win11?

I am trying to install WhyNotWin11 but it is saying -Windows protected your PC-
Microsoft Defender SmartScreen prevented an unrecognized app from starting. Running this app might put your PC at risk.- What to do?

My intel-pentium quad core is apparently 2nd generation its in a laptop so can not replace or upgrade the cpu and I only bought it at the close of 2017. Microsoft just want people buying computers they don't need.

I JUST bought two Hp Elitebook one for me and my wife., mine is a R7 2700u processor 16GB. And it can-t upgrade to windows 11. I love Microsoft Windows but I-m honestly looking at a Mac now. This is too sad.
