Windows 11 for 7th generation Intel

Thomas_Clark_tlclark23 

talk about synchronicity... just found this article same day you wrote me..

Tom's Hardware, my trusted go-to tech site for over 25 years, lists several ways to do this

and this is HOW I did it...

Started with a 7th gen PC (legacy bios) I was going to wipe out...

(wipe out would be done AFTER Win 11 was loaded and I confirmed activation)

(no, did not fear directly visiting the link, as was going to do clean re-install later)

(I'm paranoid, but doubt this kind of link has threats, but if you have AV active scan, do that)

Followed Tom's Hardware link to Github (see below or use script I pasted)

said link opens up a text file with script in English

you click the copy icon on the top right

then open notepad and paste the script into a blank file

then save the txt file to desktop

then change the .txt extension to .cmd

Right-click the file and RUN as ADMIN

You will see on top of the script shell whether the file is ACTIVE or REMOVED

and then it does nothing

each time you run the script it either toggles on or off

next, I downloaded the Win 11 23H2 ISO (its new) from Microsoft's site

make sure you select the original language from the Win 10 install

ran rufus to make a new USB install key

inserted the key into the USB slot and ran setup

it works!

link to script

https://github.com/AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat/blob/main/bypass11/Skip_TPM_Check_on_Dynamic_Update.cmd#L1

and below is the actual script if you fear visiting the link

--- begin script ---
