Microsoft surprised many people by updating its support page to officially permit the installation of Windows 11 on PCs that are not officially supported. This update came shortly after the company emphasized the necessity of TPM 2.0, which continues to be a requirement. However, Microsoft includes disclaimers about the lack of warranty for updates and potential compatibility problems despite the release.
Summary of essential information to understand.
- Windows 11 can be installed on PCs that are not officially supported, but there are potential risks involved.
- Updates or coverage for damages due to incompatibility are not guaranteed.
- The reverse feature for Windows 10 can be used within the initial 10 days.
PCs without support are now able to install Windows 11
Microsoft’s decision appears to aim at expanding the Windows 11 user community, given that Windows 10 is the most widely used system by the company and its official support will be discontinued soon. However, Microsoft does not make it easy as users trying to install the system on incompatible hardware will encounter a desktop watermark indicating that the minimum requirements have not been met.

The company warns about potential issues with performance and compatibility, stating that the user will be responsible for any problems. However, it also provides a guide for uninstalling within 10 days if the performance is unsatisfactory.
This initiative aims to strike a balance between increasing Windows 11 users and addressing the feedback received by the company following the system announcement, particularly regarding the necessity of TPM 2.0, which many older computers lack.
Keep in mind the risks when testing Windows 11 on a PC that is not officially supported, but note that the installation is now officially available.
