Can I install Windows 11 without secure boot and tpm 2.0?
I tried the Registry hacks found on the web. But it didn't work on in-place upgrade from Windows 10. It still went through the Windows Update hardware check. I finally stumbled upon a solution. The easiest way (perhaps the least known way) is to run the Windows 11 Setup.exe with the switch "/product server". It bypasses all the hardware checks. You can add that switch to the exe's run property or run it on command line.
>Setup.exe /product server
Hope this help save people some time searching!
Can you receive the latest updates?
(I don't mean security updates; I seek feature or cumulative updates.)
BehradBahrami Yes, it appears so... At least, so far so good!
But, it seems that the latest Windows 11 install downloads have disabled the server workaround - even servers now need those security features.
But I hear that it can still be done using the free Rufus install utility which allows those requirements to be bypassed.
Download an older version of Windows 11 iso that didn't have the hack patched and install it with the switch. Then update to the latest afterwards. Just an idea 🙂
From where?
I've been looking for a couple of hours without luck. BTW I don't trust unofficial sites, that's why....and only 22H3 version is available now 🤔
