***UPDATE***

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.

We've made an update to Settings to resolve some issues. Please reboot your device to ensure you have the latest update.

    Reminder

    this discussion is about preparing for Insider Preview builds.

    if you want help with a problem in windows 11, please start your own thread, with details of the problem

    if you have found an issue or something not working as intended in windows 11, please use the feedback hub (winkey+F) to bring it to the attention of the development team, they will then get the diagnostic data as well.

    for the outlandish conspiracy theories, please start your own thread providing evidence and citing sources.

    Windows 11, is being tested by insiders, there may be bugs and issues that may result in instability or loss of data. Regular backups are essential

    To leave the Dev channel at any time you will need to clean install the released version of Windows.

    to test windows 11 on unsupported hardware the device needs to have been in the dev channel prior to 24th June. you cannot now join the Dev channel on unsupported hardware.

    when windows 11 is launched, devices that do not meet the minimum requirements for windows 11 will need to clean install the release version of windows 10.

    To join the Dev channel now the device must meet the currently published minimum specs.

    Thank You for the Update !

    At this point I have two builds that were up to date and on 21390 on June 24 .  One has received  22000.1 and will not update further (Shows the TPM 2.0 screen).  The other will not update to Windows 11 at all.  Interestingly, when I ran the PC Check utility it reported my builds as (2009)  which is not what I see in the 'about' screen.  Have learned a lot about TPM during this time and am currently unable to get (out of stock) a TPM module right away .  This appears to be the only issue with getting the  'provisional' Windows 11 to preview. 

    Thank You for explaining some things that others may have missed during these posts.
