How to update windows 10 to windows 11 on mac?

Since Microsoft enforces strict hardware requirements like TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, and CPU compatibility, most Mac, especially Intel Macs running Boot Camp don’t meet these out of the box. The good news is that there are safe, well-tested methods to bypass these checks or use virtualization features to make Windows 11 install without losing your data.

If you have an Intel Mac using Boot Camp, you can still upgrade to Windows 11 on Mac from Windows 10 even without TPM 2.0 or Secure Boot by using a registry edit during the setup process.

First, download the official Windows 11 ISO from Microsoft. Boot into Windows 10, mount the ISO, and run setup.exe.

When the "This PC can't run Windows 11" message appears, press Shift + F10 to open Command Prompt, type regedit and create the keys:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\LabConfig 

add BypassTPMCheck, BypassSecureBootCheck, and BypassRAMCheck (all as DWORD 32-bit, set to 1).

Close Registry Editor, then continue setup.

This lets you keep your files, apps, and settings without hardware checks blocking you. This is one of the best free ways to update Windows 10 to Windows 11 on Mac.
