Step 1: Check System Requirements

Minimum Requirements:

• CPU: 1 GHz or faster with 2+ cores (64-bit processor) — 8th Gen Intel / Ryzen 3000 or newer
• RAM: 4 GB or more
• Storage: 64 GB or more
• TPM: Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0
• UEFI: Secure Boot must be enabled
• Graphics: DirectX 12 compatible with WDDM 2.0 driver
• Display: 720p, 9” or larger

Step 2: Check Compatibility

Use PC Health Check Tool (from Microsoft):

1. Download from: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/windows-11#pchealthcheck
2. Run the tool → It will tell you if your PC is eligible

If not eligible, you can still install Windows 11 using a workaround (see bottom section).

Step 3: Upgrade Using Windows Update (If Eligible)

1. Go to Settings → Update & Security → Windows Update
2. If eligible, you’ll see “Upgrade to Windows 11 is ready”
3. Click Download and install
4. Follow on-screen instructions
5. System will restart several times

Alternative: Use Installation Assistant

If you don’t see the upgrade in Windows Update:

1. Visit https://www.microsoft.com/software-download/windows11
2. Download Windows 11 Installation Assistant
3. Run the tool and follow prompts

Optional: Create Bootable USB (Clean Install)

If you prefer a fresh install:

1. Download the Media Creation Tool from the same link
2. Create a bootable USB (at least 8GB)
3. Boot from USB and install Windows 11 (Note: This will erase your drive)

PC Not Compatible? Try TPM Bypass (Advanced Users)

If your PC lacks TPM 2.0 or Secure Boot:

• You can use tools like Rufus (bypass TPM/Secure Boot during ISO creation)
• Or manually edit registry during setup (AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU key)

These methods are unofficial and not recommended for production machines.

Before You Upgrade:

• Backup important data
• Ensure device drivers are updated
• Free up disk space (10–15 GB recommended)
