However, Microsoft has warned that these machines may (or likely will) be blocked from updates (including important security updates) due to compatibility issues.
It involves downloading an official ISO online or creating a bootable media disc or thumb drive using a machine that does have Windows 11 installed. There are ways that users can download Windows 11 onto an older PC that doesn’t have the security requirements.
It is a powerful system we ran it on, but the processor and motherboard are around 5 years old and missed the requirements by a single generation. An example of the latter can be seen in the below image. If not, it will give you a checklist of detailed reasons why not, and hopefully ways of fixing them. If your system does meet the strict requirements of the OS, it will be able to tell you. If you do want to give it a try, you can find it here.
