Upgrading Windows 10 to Windows 11 on unsupported systems

WARNING

This is not supported by Microsoft, most of the methods listed here didnt work for me on the first system I updated, Windows is not my primary operating system and my Windows was in factory reset state so it not working wont affect me.

What works

Sedric, Tassu and Zaldaryn have no TPM or currently supported CPU, while the health check app says they are only two to six years old.

Registry files here

I think the first method is likely the best, but I cannot rule these working on another system out yet. They didnt work on my first system tried.

  • 00-AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU.reg - the official Microsoft recommendation and the only one that should be used. If after reboot nothing happens, maybe try the rest rebooting every failure.
  • 01-LabConfig.reg - widely reported to work
  • 01-Setup.reg - ^
  • 02-DevRing.reg - after joining the Insider program, this should enforce joining to Dev ring which should offer Windows 11 instantly. It may be advisable to leave after successful update.
