    health check tool says my PC meets all requirements for windows 11, but insider program settings says it doesn't meet the minimum hardware requirements recommended for windows 11... this must be a bug of some sort for the 2 programs to be saying opposite things

    Similar, on my Ryzen 3700X build I had to go into the firmware and enable fTPM in CPU Settings. On my Intel i7 5930k system I just need a 20-Pin TPM R2.0 module.

    I see this tactic being used on Mountain Bike Trails all the time, if you can't ride the first obstacle maybe you shouldn't be running BETA software.

    My system is Acer Predator Helios 300 (G3-572), It checks all boxes of compatibility for windows 11.

    but still, the PC health Checkup shows error.

    My theory is that 8th generation Intel procs are required. 7th gen and below don't seem to meet the specs even though everything else does. Wish someone from MS would confirm this.
