    Disappointed with this tool. My Intel NUC8I7HNK, which meets all Windows 11 published requirements, shows as incompatible. But, the Health tool doesn't reveal what it thinks is incompatible. The tool needs a lot of work.

    My most wanted feature on W11 is full-screen start menu, where is it! where is it! I know it is not a popular feature, but at least leave us an option! Make it into software that anyone who wants start menu to be full-screen can install from Windows APP store is also acceptable! PLEASE!

    I've been hearing from a lot of computer enthusiasts on twitter that the TPM requirement is way too much to ask of them. People already cannot source computer parts and for some of them upgrading is near impossible to do, especially in other countries. Please tell me that this won't be so strict going forward. I've verified that a couple of them actually can't get TPM but they meet every other requirement.
