@ Orakels AGAIN Instead of all the will it work on my computer questions .......... and requests to be spoon fed ...... Try it yourselves and tell us ? ...... Thats the way everyone else here learns .
Actually, I'm not sure that you do understand some of the main points that are being made in this thread. Your points appear to be summed up as follows: "If you want to play, ya gotta pay! Otherwise, you must "settle" on using Windows 10. If Windows 11 doesn't run on your PC, then you should be satisfied with what you've got." I don't agree with this. Windows 11 looks like a scam to force users to buy new hardware, and that's just inappropriate.
>Windows 11 looks like a scam to force users to buy new hardware, and that's just inappropriate. Yes ........ but ........ the whole computer industry is based on that = Keep changing standards , requirements and introduce new sockets .......... so people have to continualy keep buying new computers , parts , software . Thats what capitalism is built on .
Yeah, the operating system has to keep up with the new hardware i guess. But theres seems to be some agenda also.
thats like saying windows 8 was a scam to force users to buy new hardware. Its not like microsoft went to printer manufacturers and asked them if they wanted the driver stack changed.
I'm getting that message in Windows Updates about not meeting minimum spec for the Dev channel but the health check app says everything is good to go. Are there different requirements for Insiders than there is for Windows 11 as a whole? Edit: just to add the PC I'm trying is a Surface Book 2, meets all the required specs including TPM 2.0 and Secure Boot
Windows 8 was a mistake. It resulted in tremendous losses to the computer industry. I don't think it was a scam, but I refused to use Windows 8 when it came out, for the same reasons that much of the world refused to use it. Going into all those reasons would be redundant. Windows 10 fixed much of that. But I didn't have to buy any new hardware to run Windows 10. I could just transition to Windows 10 with no hardware issues. I'm not seeing that with Windows 11.
