    I have joined the insider program and there is no warning that my computer is not meet the minimum hardware requirements but I still do not see any Windows 11 updates only windows 10 updates even though I am part of the Dev channel. What am I missing? The only thing i can think of is there is a Policy not allowing this to happen but I can't find one and it does not make any sense as this is a personal computer.

    all this means is that only a few will be able to upgrade and the other's will just go either to mac or linux

    and microsoft will be branded cheats and liars no one will trust them and from all the bad publicity they will go bust

    so will I get windows 11 update or not when it is generally available later this year?

    Unless Microsoft add to the list of supported processors - No.

    Microsoft are looking at the stability and performance of some older CPUs, but at the moment no decision has been announced.

    no problem with that I have been sending back data about MS software for years even before the insider program

    and what do I get from it no acknowledgement no freebees not even a rig that can cut the mustard

    that is why with windows 11 I decided not to help them see if they can work it out for themselves

    and when they get stuck they will no longer call on techienumber1 for help

    I was relieved that I did not have to offline my secondary drive like with the first update,

    But I noticed "Device security" still dismisses my W11 PC as unworthy, and

    "Core Isolation" is still emptied out.

    Brandon (the blogger) says they fixed "safe mode" so that's nice.

    ^^^^ "core Isolation"
