I think the first time I tried it, it got held back in the same way yours did, I ended up leaving the inside program and was able to get an install of windows 11 just to find nothing but issues about, " my administrator has blocked.... blah blah blah". The problem with that error is I don't have an administrator other then me. I am a 100% Service Connected Disabled Marine, I'm not employed so who is my mystery administrator? Well this seems to be a question nobody can answer, seems zi have one of these mystery administrators on Google and Apple. If anybody has any advice on finding out who these mysterious administrators are, please let me know. The only way I could get my machines back to being in a working condition was a clean install back to windows 10. As far as the paid software, I sent an email to Corel explaining what happened and they let me re-download my software which I saved on my NAS server (a highly recommended device I recommend you get), more as I struggle through these upgrades at least I have a copy of all of my paid software and other software for like my CNC all saved on my NAS server. I don't know if this helps but maybe it might. One of the other changes I had to make to get windows 11 to my laptop was to increase the size of my partition that windows users to install files on, I'm not positive but it seems you need enough room to not only save these files but also enough room to execute them. I wrote that all up on how to do it in the windows insider under one of the updates that do may windows insiders aren't able to do because of it failing because it didn't have enough room. I hope Microsoft published it because it really cleaned up allot of errors I was getting. But I'm still stuck working around my mysterious system administrator. Hope the last part helps. And don't forget to go into your bios F2 or F12 at boot and enable your TPMS 2.0 then go into your windows settings under security and enable it there. I'll keep the thread updated on the progress I make.
