Version 3.16 or higher of Rufus has an additional “Extended Windows 11 Installation” option that includes the necessary bypasses to install Win11 on unsupported hardware & w/out secure boot enabled: It still “doesn’t meet requirements” because of no Secure Boot capability, despite selecting “no secure boot” and BIOS rather than UEFI.Īnybody have a registry hack for bypassing the Secure Boot requirement? 😁 I used Rufus, but still couldn’t install W-11 on the old laptop. IMHO W11 is “Not Ready for Prime Time”, of course as always YMMV! I’ll be imaging this drive and restoring my W10 image I took before starting. I resorted to the PowerShell Mount-DiskImage command which worked great. This is because I’ve installed software which apparently replaced that option. As for mounting the ISO files I’ve never done this and attempting to do it via File Explorer per instructions on the net didn’t work as my context menu didn’t have a MOUNT option.It’s not entirely clear, at least to me, that you are modifying the Windows 10 Install files with the Windows 11 Install.esd or Install.wim file.Notes on the Preparation instructions in the OP: However, I want more than a pretty face for my OS! On the positive side it does look pretty with those nice rounded corners.
I absolutely hate the fact that I can’t have a user menu in the Notification Area! I had a plethora of shortcuts in there that I use all the time.The program now reports Windows 11 Pro and Release 2109. HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersionįor the Keys: ProductName & ReleaseID.
