Preparing for Insider Preview Builds of Windows 11 - ***UPDATED 6/28***

Apparently my rig cannot run windows 11. Good luck everyone else.

RTX 3080

3700x

32 gigs trident z 3600 cl16

ASrock x570 Taiichi razer edition

1tb 970 Evo pro

1tb HDD

1000w Supernova G2

Remove (diskpart: offline) the drive that is not a boot drive.

Having two drives made my installation impossible and offlining my second drive made it work perfectly.

Most of the posts here focus on TPM, but no one mentions the drives!

(nice system)

Had nothing else todo or change ... after i was on Dev Channel all worked with the update. Not one problem while downloading or installing it. Was already back on Windows 10 yesterday to try again if i´ll get it again since many people got problems and can´t download it.

And for the thing with many computer/notebooks wont work, dunno we just have to wait with what Microsoft will come up. I mean just look bout the specs with 1GHZ ... even our Toaster have that much power already xD... Think more this is just a try to get many people into the Insider for checking what needs to be done on Microsoft side or the other Companys (like ASUS ... ) to get all working. For example my Notebook shows me in Win10 all bout TPM 2.0 in Hardwaresecurity, but in Windows 11 Preview it doesn´t show up. Only Microsoft knows that for know. I just don´t think they will risk to **** to much people off, that would not not end well for them.

if the device does not meet the specs at the time windows 11 is launched you will need to clean install windows 10.

from the blog mentioned in the op

"Once Windows 11 is generally available, these PCs will be opted out of flighting and will not be able to receive future Windows 11 Insider Preview builds. These PCs must clean install back to Windows 10"

"I just want to use better software."

then wait until it is launched. pre-release versions are likely to contain bugs and issues that could result in data loss.

windows 10 will be supported until (at least) 2025 and, of course, will continue to work beyond that.

Trojaner,

Well I was able to select dev option, but after 10% of dl it went to pc check. I failed, it stopped.

How were you able to dl and install?

I have read about the reg edits to use but I have yet to try them out. I am afraid that farther down the road, MS will force me to return to w10. This was mentioned in another article. MS will use you then divorce you after they get the intel they want.

I just want to use better software. I have nothing on my machine to really worry about security wise. I have never trusted pc's enough to become that dependent on them. If my machine gets compromised, I just erase drive and re-install OS fresh.

For the switching back from Beta, had the same issue. But, as it was written you can change back on the Beta/Dev Channel if that happens ... But with the Beta Channel i got nothing, no chance for the 11 preview. When i switched to the Dev Channel i got it asap with the next Update search. And yes, my used system (ASUS K751LB Notebook with an I7-5500U) doesn´t meet the standarts for win11. But it works just fine on this system, even better then Win10. They just have to find out on witch systems Windows 11 will run well enough so they can work on it and do needed changes. I mean: They can´t just deliver another Vista to End-Users again,
