If using the "tweaks" to bypass the System Requirements of Win11 one must keep in mind that future Version Upgrades and/or Build updates may cause those to revert to default in turn preventing Win11 running on unsupported hardware. Because I have to see what my clients will see I had to get new computers as none of my several will properly run Win11, newest was from 2016. Bottom line, consider the warning that was given to the Insider Preview folks [formally was Technical Preview when I got into it], don't use on a Production or Only computer.

Windows 11 Education to Windows 11 Home

Hi, My daughter had a laptop set up by her school which now has Windows education 11 on it. In my attempts to swap the computer to me (she has since been issued with a new school computer), windows is now de-activated on it. I purchased Windows 11 home but am unable to install or swap to that...

I discovered a long time ago, that if I'm going to do anything out of the ordinary, with Windows (any version) that I should shut off MS Updates, because an update may just shoot me down.

For instance, I could get Windows Mail to work just fine on Windows 8.1 (it's not supposed to, according to Microsoft) but a MS Update would disable it. So the only fix was to shut off Windows Updates.

Just a thought......

Running Windows 11 on a computer with an unsupported AMD APU can lead to various issues and performance issues. While you may be able to bypass the compatibility check and install Windows 11, it is not recommended, especially on your main machine

OH my gawd! If that advise were followed, we'd all be in the poor house. At least some of us can't afford to go out and buy a new computer every time a new OS comes out.
My own PC, is so old that if it were any older it would run on steam. But defying all the nay-sayers, I've installed Windows 11/Pro/64 on it and it's running beautifully! (with Windows updates permanently disabled)
And, it's FAST too!
