    GPT is better than MBR if your hard drive is larger than 2 TB.

    While we don't have any definite answer, my guess is that hardware meeting the minimum system requirements, even having an old CPU, will be able to get the Windows 11 update.

    Well here's my hardware specifications

    Intel Core i7-6660U 2.40 GHZ

    8 GB RAM

    Intel Iris Graphics 540 with Directx 12

    TPM is enabled and 2.0

    UEFI, Secure Boot enabled

    256 GB SSD (103 GB left)

    15,6 inch screen 1920x1080

    All this is of course super, but what about the fact that the assistant for switching to windows 11, when reporting that windows 11 is not compatible with this computer, does not write information in more detail? When I click on additional information, I go to the microsoft website, where they offer to buy a new computer! Is it possible that a computer that meets the system requirements for windows 10 will not get windows 11? The main thing is that it is not clear what requirements I cannot install windows 11 for. I used the updated assistant for testing, but there is no clarity. according to the minimum requirements on the site, and according to information from other sources, my computer is suitable for windows 11. I conclude that the computer should be 2020-2021? So I ask you to take the following steps: after the official release of windows 11, build a better tool into the installation wizard, checking for compatibility. or improve existing tools. The user should know why his device is not suitable. If that's what I'm talking about the application taken from this page: https://www.microsoft.com › ru-ru › windows-11 I apologize in advance for possibly not very competent English.
