For users who are receiving the following message in your Windows Insider Settings:

Your PC does not meet the minimum hardware requirements for Windows 11. Your device may continue to receive Insider Preview builds until Windows 11 is generally available, at which time it is recommended to clean install to Windows 10.

    If your system clearly meets the requirements but insiders page says that your PC doesn't meet the requirements, you can optionally go into dev channel to bypass this bug since it might not get fixed for a while. But be prepared for what dev channel means. Best to have a windows 10 creation point ready, as well as backups.

    Same here! Intel Core I7, 16GB Ram, 512GB SSD, DirectX12 Compatible Grafic, TMP 2.0, Secure Boot... Everything fits on the minimum Requirements. But the Tool says it doesn't... May its because i'm using already a Inside-Preview?

    Hi,

    I have a PC that's been on the Insider Builds for years but is showing as incompatible due to no TPM but has been on the Dev builds since they were called the fast insider builds. I also have another PC that is compatible that I have just enrolled in the Dev channel and would like to test 11 on.

    Is the release schedule tied to my Insider Account or the PC and is there a way to but the compatible PC on the Dev 11 Build?

    Thanks,

    I was wondering about that as well. Also on a preview build. Might be the issue.
