How to fix: "This pc doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11"
I've encountered a similar problem before, and it took me a long time to solve it. It sounds like your hardware meets the requirements of Windows 11, but the installation process is still stuck. This situation is sometimes not a hardware problem, but the Windows installer itself is too strict in checking the system environment.
I finally solved it with WinBootsMate. This tool is a bit niche, but it works well.

It can help you skip some of the detection steps of Windows 11 and make the installation process go smoothly.
I met this error a couple of days ago when I was trying to install Windows 11 on an old laptop that CPU is not supported by Windows 11. Fortunately, I managed to fix this error using the Win-Boot-Mate app suggested by this community member. Once I made a bootable Windows 11 with the app, the error (This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11) is gone during the installation process. You can follow the official guide to solve this problem by your own.
