Windows 11 has strict minimum system requirements, and it is said that many PCs currently in use do not meet these requirements.
Microsoft has published a way to install Windows 11 on such PCs, while testing desktops and settings apps to warn them that they don’t meet the minimum system requirements.
Show on desktop and settings app that the minimum system requirements are not met
Microsoft is testing Windows 11 Build 22557 to display a warning on the desktop if it does not meet the minimum system requirements.
It is said that a warning will be displayed not only on the desktop but also on the settings app.
These warnings are implemented as A / B testing, and some users will see the warning and others will not.
Even if it does not meet the minimum system requirements, it does not affect the operation in particular, and it seems that it is just a warning display so far.
Microsoft is said to release Windows 11 version 22H2 “Sun Valley 2” in late 2022, but Sun Valley 2 may be released with these warnings implemented.
Security updates may not be delivered if the minimum system requirements are not met
Windows 11 has strict minimum system requirements such as CPU and TPM, and research shows that many PCs used in enterprises do not meet these requirements.
While Microsoft has released an official way to install Windows 11 on PCs that don’t meet the minimum system requirements, PCs that don’t meet the minimum system requirements may not receive security updates.
Microsoft wants many users to buy a new PC as soon as possible with the warning display, but too persistent warning display may lead to leaving Windows on the contrary.
