minus-squaretobogganablaze@lemmus.orglinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up108·8 months agoI’m so glad I’m stuck with a “your hardware doesn’t support windows 11” message.
minus-squareSirEDCaLot@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up28arrow-down1·8 months agoJust disable TPM in your BIOS if you have that option. Win 11 needs modern TPM so it won’t upgrade you if you don’t have one.
minus-squarePasserby6497@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up26arrow-down1·8 months ago“Needs” lol It’s just in there to sell more hardware. Afaik, 11 does nothing that actually requires the newer tpm.
minus-squareSirEDCaLot@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up15·8 months agoYeah people who really wanted 11 back in the beginning found an easy process to bypass the check during the install. 11 works fine without it.
minus-squareCodilingus@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up6·8 months agoIf you make the bootable USB drive with Rufus, a little window pops up asking if you wanna remove some of the bullshit, such as TPM and secure boot requirements.
minus-squaresexual_tomato@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up22·8 months agoI disabled my TPM in BIOS so Windows would never upgrade
minus-squareImgonnatrythis@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up10·8 months agoI think this is a pretty big deal and they are shooting themselves in the foot with these unnecessary restrictions.
minus-squaresnownyte@kbin.sociallinkfedilinkarrow-up8arrow-down1·8 months agoSame, out of curiosity, I checked my system for that and got the message. Even if I didn’t, I’m not going to sit around all day as 64GB of “required” stora- oh I mean bloatware to install on my system. Windows used to function fine with 2GB of storage. It does NOT need 64GB and Microsoft can get fucked.
