I'm so glad I'm stuck with a "your hardware doesn't support windows 11" message.

    Just disable TPM in your BIOS if you have that option. Win 11 needs modern TPM so it won't upgrade you if you don't have one.

    "Needs" lol

    It's just in there to sell more hardware. Afaik, 11 does nothing that actually requires the newer tpm.

    Yeah people who really wanted 11 back in the beginning found an easy process to bypass the check during the install. 11 works fine without it.

    Same, out of curiosity, I checked my system for that and got the message.

    Even if I didn't, I'm not going to sit around all day as 64GB of "required" stora- oh I mean bloatware to install on my system.

    Windows used to function fine with 2GB of storage. It does NOT need 64GB and Microsoft can get fucked.
