    Hi all trying post to many times but I am just curious why this is not working for me. Below is what I am seeing and unlike many here I was able to get my computer to meet minimum requirements after activating TPM 2.0 and secure boot etc. What I cant get are any releases for Windows 11. The only thing I was able to download was Build 21390.co_release.210521-1658. This is what I see on my insider window.

    I did wonder also if it was one of these policies but I think these were all set by the insider program:

    Thanks for your picture.

    The rest of this is absolute total guessing, and apologies in advance:

    If a user's PC is good enough and even if it isn't, (Mine isn't) join the DEV channel which is pretty easygoing (if you make sure to only have ONE single Drive installed during installation.)

    As of a couple days ago (this doubtless isn't true anymore) there was no other version besides "DEV".

    Forcing your setting to "Release" when there is none, marks you as unworthy for "DEV" (see the chart).

    Conclusion:

    Go back to "DEV" and do the drive-thing,

    the TPM thing,

    and whatever-thing I forgot right now.

    You'll still be unworthy (probably) but it should install anyway.

    but I am speaking above my station, apologies to the people who really know this stuff.

    To no one (I just found this out, but where do I write it except here?)

    Known issues:

    Pretty biggie known-issues.

    Yes, apparently you cannot just clear the TPM in BIOS, windows must do it,

    Although I have not (1) figured a way to use "Device security" as an administrator,

    (2) "device security" is acting like some mean security guard and not even mentioning the TPM.

    But another DOS-tool is much more understanding:

    Do I have a good revision? yes

    Do I need to clear? no

    *Could* I clear if I wanted? yes.

    whatever it wants it's either a temp-guard telling everyone to go away, or it's being mysterious.

    I think it's a very temp-guard.

    I was able to get the Dev channel of windows 11 like a few days ago, but literally 1 day after me installing Dev win 11 my pc wasn't able to do anything and crashes within 1 minute after boot, so I had to speedrun to the settings page and get myself back to windows 10, after back to windows 10 I thought of trying out the Beta channel (since its more stable than the Dev channel) but as I try to do that from settings it said Your PC does not meet the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11. Your chancel options will be limited. My PC meets all the requirements but I just cant upgrade to windows 11(?) Pls helpImage
