This manual method is a practical solution to the problem of can't install windows 11 on a amd processor by modifying the installation file to skip hardware compatibility checks:
Mount the Windows 11 ISO by double-clicking the file directly
Copy all files from the mounted ISO to a local folder
Navigate to the sources folder under the copied directory
Delete or rename the file: appraiserres.dll
Create a new bootable USB drive using these modified files
Proceed with the Windows 11 installation process normally
This operation skips the system's hardware verification step, effectively resolving the issue of can't install windows 11 on a amd processor and enabling normal installation on the corresponding AMD processor device.
