Can't install windows 11 even though my PC meet requirements
I can't stress this enough : check that TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot are enabled in your BIOS settings. It’s like the bouncer at the club that keeps out anyone who doesn’t belong. If these aren’t turned on, your PC’s literally saying, “Nah, you can’t come in.” So make sure to find those settings and flip the switch. Sometimes, your motherboard needs a little pep talk. An outdated BIOS can be a major roadblock. Check the manufacturer’s website for a newer version and update it if needed. Just be careful with this one—updating your BIOS can be a bit risky if you don’t follow the steps right.
If you still get this error "Can't install windows 11 even though i meet requirements? " If you're booting off a USB, make sure it's formatted correctly (think FAT32 if you're using UEFI). If it’s not, your PC might look at the drive like it’s a foreign object and just refuse to recognize it. Format it properly using Disk Management.
