    “It didn’t really leak. It was some early weird build,”
    Such a weird sentence, if it didnt leak, was it released on purpose or what?

    Your measurement is features. He may have a broader view of what's a serious build leak.

    Does DISM perform an upgrade install or a destructive install?


    no, he isn't.

    This reg entry will only bypass error during windows installation and let you install win 11.
    It can't change results of PC Health check or whynotwin11. May by you misunderstood the concept.

    IMHO this artificial CPU restriction is a very shrewd and calculated move on Microsoft's part.
    1. It boosts sales of new hardware. Keeps the manufacturers happy, boosts preinstalled OEM Windows sales.
    2. It generates a LOT of interest. Controversy is a great advertising gambit. So many people are talking about this who, under normal circumstances, would have just gone "Meh!".
    3. It drastically reduces Microsoft's support liability without making a significant dent in the installed base. Everyone with an older CPU is on their own - not Microsoft's responsibility. Okay, M$ tech support was always pathetic, but even so, this is a good move for the company. If you have a problem on older hardware, they can say "We told you you might have problems."
    4. It drastically reduces Microsoft's efforts to ensure compatibility with older hardware. Since the CPU establishes a cut-off date, older motherboard chipsets and codecs are automatically excluded as well.

    Why do you think so? I mean they did release several ISOs for kits (WDK, ADK..etc...) all for build 22000 lol.

    As for Monday, I do believe this is going to be one of those rare monday builds.
    As it's not just any Insider build...
    It's the first Windows 11 Insider build.
    I think they want testers on this ASAP.

    On the CPU, what I can work out that "in general", The CPU requirement bar is actually quite low to just run Windows 11. In other words most CPU's can run Windows 11. The problem seems the integrated graphics chip in most CPU's, and they may not be up to speed with what windows has available in its STORE in Windows 11. They will be allowing all sort of apps from basically anyone (ie to increase revenue), and for that to work in Windows 11 seamlessly, they need a base standard, ie only 8th generation and above, knowing many will need higher graphics demands.

    Seems its big brother looking over your shoulder and all Microsoft seems to worry about is that Windows 11 works perfectly. Why not do what we did in the olden days, only download programs that are compatible to your system.

    thanks brother, but I came to the following conclusion: I am in no hurry to keep updating my operating system to force at the right time our great mother M$FT will update my system automatically as it has always been since the days of Windows 7...:D
