Windows 11 Support Thread

It’s a 6th gen Cpu.
I’m not getting offered the 24H2 update even after allowing "Get the latest updates as soon as possible"
My other pc has been offered the 24H2 literally last month already.

Ok that CPU is fine ... anything pre-2010 will not be able to upgrade to 24H2

The machine I upgraded via USB was also not offered the upgrade via Windows Updates.

Maybe Google for reasons ?

I tried using an ISO to do an in place upgrade and it failed with the usual error - no TPM2.0 and CPU not supported :cautious:
Yassis the tech support on this website is up to sht!!
The CPU is an i5 6300u 6th gen

Like I said, you need to run a reg file to bypass the requirements. Do you know how to create one ?

Microsoft had the info on their site.

Registry Key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup
Name: AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU
Type: REG_DWORD
Value: 1


Check out this video .... might help a little (it's from 10 to 11 tho)

If the above doesn't work, use this batch file ... that's what I used to upgrade 23H2 to 24H2

I actually couldn't remember which route I took, but it rang a bell now :p

Here's a new glitch - the Weather app in Windows 11 has decided that - even though 'South Africa (English)' is set as the default system region / language in the app - that the text is displayed in Asian hieroglyphics... ;)

Looks like Windows 11 did an update to the Weather app yesterday, which has restored the correct language again...

For people with really old 'unsupported' hardware who wish to upgrade to Windows 11. I mean where SSE4.2 isn't met. You can still do 23H2, however this means that you likely have a pre-x86-64v3 system. Do disable Link State Power Management. Firmware, BIOS and drivers that aren't up to date don't play along too well. It is almost best to stay with Windows 8.1. Disabling it makes Windows 11, and 10, a much nicer place. I won't recommend disabling it on mobile devices and supported systems as it works as intended.

For those needing older ISOs or direct upgrades/downgrades to previous versions, here you go. It is all direct 'unadulterated' downloads, the script is inside.

And people bitch about having to edit the odd text/conf file on Linux.....
 
Man i hate this OS. It's been stuck on this rubbish for hours. Restarting just brings me back to this.

Had to role back to a previous system restore point. All good now. Looks to be some security update as that was the last update from Windows before the issue.

Man I hate this company.
 
You know, my Surface Pro is now about five years old but it still takes every update without any issues, boots up in about 20 seconds and works as it should.

I don’t know what machines some here are using. @RedViking are you sure what you got is a Dell and not some Chinese counterfeit Dill PC?
Who knows
 
Most of my experience with Dells and failed updates/freezing etc have more to do with the drivers/utilities from Dell than the hardware.
Yeah, the drivers are unreliable, specially that optimisation app thing.

Anyways, I'm grateful I have a good laptop to work on.

I also suspect there is some registry or file that might be syncing with my windows account and that is why I experience similar issues on all my windows machine, even though I do set it up from scratch.

I know I'm grasping a straws here.... Maybe I just have badluck.
