---

Windows 11 for Everyone! , Bypass TPM/SoC checks and install Windows 11 safely on your unsupported device.

About

• Starting with Windows 11, Microsoft made several requirements necessary to "officially" upgrade or install Windows 11, some of requirements are :-

  • TPM >= 2.0 ( https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11-specifications?r=1#:~:text=1%20gigahertz%20(GHz)%20or%20faster,on%20a%20Chip%20(SoC).&text=4%20gigabyte%20(GB).&text=64%20GB%20or%20larger%20storage,%2Ddate%E2%80%9D%20for%20more%20details.&text=UEFI%2C%20Secure%20Boot%20capable. )
  • Intel Core 8 Generation or above ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-intel-processors )
  • AMD ( https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/design/minimum/supported/windows-11-supported-amd-processors )

• Hence due to these limitations, even high end, older Generation Laptops/PCs were not able to get taste of Windows 11, some other ways required a clean install or a modded ISO which everyone does not prefer.

• This repo will help you Bypass Win11 checks, and install windows 11 officially via Media Creation Tool or Windows Update without loosing data/using a modded ISO.

• Replace appraiserres.dll in the folder from the one you download from this repo

• Microsoft for appraiserres.dll binary (from W10), Media Creation Tool and everything
• Reddit/Telegram where I learnt to bypass Win11 checks in July '21

Notes

• This method is tested on Windows 10 v2004 > Windows 11 v21H2
• Hence it should ideally work on Windows 11 v21H2/Windows 10 21H2 > Windows 11 v22H2
• Will this work on future Windows 11 Updates? Yes, Until Microsoft Patches it.
