problem with PC hardware not supporting windows 11
I get a message that my PC does not meet the min hardware requirements but no specifics. How can I see what exactly is not met?
Hello Lachezar2205,
Following are the basic requirements for Windows 11:- Processor: 1 GHz or faster with 2 or more cores on a compatible 64-bit processor or System on a Chip (SoC)
- RAM: 4 GB or above
- Storage: More than 64 GB
- System firmware: UEFI, Secure Boot capable
- TPM: Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
- Graphics card: Compatible with DirectX 12 or later with WDDM 2.0 driver
- Display: High definition 720p display that is greater than 9” diagonally, 8 bits per color channel
You can manually check, if your system meet all of these requirements. Most of information can be confirmed from System summary available by running msinfo32.exe command.
Hope this helps!
Do you see a message preventing you from the upgrade?

Yes, I see the message about tpm2 and I think feedback brought me here or on the path to here. Anyway, close this case. I just wanted to know why tpm 2 is required for PC. It makes no sense to me, maybe for laptops yes, but PC...
Lachezar2205 Hi!
I have good news for you confirmed by Microsoft - Windows10 updates for 5 more years are provided and there will be no need for TPM 2.0.
so you don't need to install Windows11 with new requirements.
