    Hello,

    The Windows PC Health Check App says that my PC can't run Windows 11 (image below).

    Currently, I'm opting for the Release Preview Channel of the Windows Insider Program. And the table below says that my PC won't eligible for Windows 11 Insider Preview builds, but it can still get Windows 10 preview updates.

    I have some questions to ask below:

    • Are there any more feature updates to Windows 10?
    • PCs that aren't compatible with Windows 11 can continue using Windows 10 and getting security updates. So when will my Windows 10 version stop getting security updates?
    • Can I install Windows 11 on a virtual machine?

    Thank you.

    感谢，已经解决了，的确要改启动模式为ufei，但是我的安全选项需要选择ptt,其他人一般选择tpm2.0。

    I don't know for sure, but this link implies yes if the incompatibility is only the CPU: Compatibility for Windows 11- Compatibility Cookbook | Microsoft Docs

    I'm hoping this is correct.

    Thank You so much chrisd-r redirecting me there. as it indicates it will be possible 🤩 Can you tell me what is this? Smode: Smode is false, or Smode is true and C_ossku in (0x65, 0x64, 0x63, 0x6D, 0x6F, 0x73, 0x74, 0x71)
