    Hi Sibro,

    I found a way around the latest nail and error 0x80888002, but not a solution that I like...

    MS will probably add a new nail to block it again.

    New game, but it is just a waste of time. 😜

    Hi Eddie,

    Pretty rare error isn't it? doesn't even show up in a Google search.

    Hi Sibro,

    Looks like MS finally added another nail in the road to prevent installing Windows 11 on machines that do not meet the requirements.

    The other variation is this new error 0x80888002 on W.U. download.

    This maybe the end of the game for unsupported boxes, unless somebody finds where they added the new check. 😉

    Maybe, but you don't necessarily have to use Windows Update 😁

    The 1st message is with the ISO while offline.
