First: you can upgrade almost any decent PC to Win11 if it has Win10 running. (Win 7 & 8 may not do an automatic licensing anymore, depends on your Bios; but can also get upgraded this way)
Copy the Win11.ISO (download from Microsoft directly!) onto the PC, mount it with Doubleclick. Then open CMD with Admin-privilege, change to the mounted drive and then do SETUP /PRODUCT SERVER This switch disables all checks for TPM etc and then installs a Win11 Home or Pro (depending of your existing Windows variant). Works with all x64 CPUs from 2008 onwards. This commandline switch doesn't work with Win11 version 27xxx anymore, thus grab your Win11 ISO now!. Even if you install an older ISO, the regular Win-updates will still get you to the current version. If there are problems with the Upgrade, Windows either reverts itself to the original version, or you can manually go back. If everything is working ok, then run CleanMgr with Admin-privilege, and select all options to get rid of that OldWin-backups.. I have successfully upgraded more than 10 PCs (even 15 year old DELLs) this way; sometimes added RAM to get at least 4GB and changed to an SSD, those boxes are then still useful for Students and Officework. wOOdy -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ProFox <[email protected]> Im Auftrag von Kurt Wendt Gesendet: Montag, 21.
