If you want to install Windows 11 25H2 on unsupported PC. Using the Windows ADK (Assessment and Deployment Kit) or AIK (Automated Installation Kit) with a setupconfig.ini file is a more legitimate and less risky method to bypass certain hardware checks during Windows 11 installation, especially on unsupported PCs.
How the setupconfig.ini Bypass Works:
- You create a custom setupconfig.ini file that instructs the Windows installer to skip specific hardware requirement checks, such as TPM, Secure Boot, or CPU compatibility.
- This method leverages the Windows setup's built-in configuration options, making it a cleaner approach compared to file patches or registry hacks.
