    My PC is running i7-9700k, 32GB RAM, 1tb SSD of which 720GB is free and 1080 GTX, which is Direct X 12 compatible, I cannot spot anything in the system requirements that say why my PC shouldn't support Windows 11.

    Helppppppppppp please.

    Seems to be something amiss. Settings app indicates "does not meet minimum hardware requirements" but the downloadable tool from the Windows 11 landing page says I do.

    After reading blog I can see that Dev channel will able to install windows 11 without even meeting requirements. So I am moving to Dev channel.

    Keep reading. There's a GIGANTIC caveat to that considering the general availability will be later this year...at which point you'll be screwed.
