Win 11 compatibility
My computer meets the written requirements but in running the compatibility test for win11 it is declared not compatible. It is an ASUS Z170 Pro gaming MB with an I7 6700k and and Nvidia GTX 1080TI....
- Great, you need to verify this with ASUS and they would be able to help you to enable and run it.
In case there is any issue when you want to upgrade to Windows 11, let us know and make sure file a bug report using Feedback Hub app.
TPM 2.0 plugin modules are available from asus which will work, TPM is baked into cpu's from roughly 2018 onwards, laptops have had them a while but may not be 2.0.

- The first two ($windows.~bt) should be in the same driver as the one Windows has been installed (e.g. C:) and the other, you may just enter them into search box or start menu and they will be open. However, like I mentioned, you might not see all of them.
- Thanks Reza, yes after trying to recover the installation twice, it restores win 10 which is working fine. Where are these files located? If I can find them I will include them in a bug report. I have already provided the above info to the feedback hub. Cheers Jeff
- Are you able to boot into your Windows 10?
If yes, make sure file a bug report and share this issue.
Try include the following files in your report:
$windows.~bt\Sources\Panther
$windows.~bt\Sources\Rollback
%WINDIR%\Panther
%WINDIR%\Inf\Setupapi.log
%WINDIR%\Memory.dmp
%WINDIR%\Minidump.dmp
%WINDIR%\System32\Sysprep\Panther
Some of above files might not be available in your PC, so only include the one which are available. - Quick update. the Asus TPM 2.0 module finally arrived and has been installed. Win 10 automatically recognised it as did my BIOS so no problem there. Tried installing WIN 11 but found the prior health check results were locked in and saying my PC was not compatible preventing me from downloading. Used Revo uninstaller to completely remove PC Health check and was able to download Win 11 successfully. I downloaded the Beta and tried to install. It fell over with an error "Tried to write to readonly memory." I tried using the download twice. I then downloaded the ISO file and burned it to a cd and tried to install from that. I got an error message that said my computer as not compatible and proceed at my own risk. My computer is now fully compatible and I chose to proceed. I do regular backups so not too worried. It installed to the same point where I got the Green screen of death and the same error message. BTW a word to MS if you tried to install WIN 11 with a different version of English than the one you had in Win 10 it does not allow you to save apps. When I downloaded the ISO I first downloaded English UK as English AUS was not available. I am from the U.S. originally had U.S. English on board. I exited the installation and downloaded the U.S. ISO which is what I used with the results described above. ATM I am thinking I will have to wait for the normal release. Any thoughts anyone?
