We need some folks to try the registry hack to upgrade to Win11 and report their experience. I don't want to be the first ![]()

My machine configuration:
Processor: Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-7500U CPU @ 2.70GHz 2.90 GHz
RAM: 16.0 GB (15.9 GB usable)
System Type: 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
OS Edition: Windows 10 Pro
OS Build: 19045.2604
I have tried thrice actually but had to roll back to Windows 10, these are points which I have noticed:
- Windows explorer was acting like crazy sometimes, hold-and-drag folders/files were looks like iPhone Slow Motion videos.
- Blue Screen and laptop restarts suddenly.
- Running lots of applications at the same time was crashing windows.
In my opinion, we should not run Windows 11 on unsupported processors.
