Best method I've seen & worked like a charm on my old XPS gen-1 i5 with a spanking new SSD! Even with only 8GBs RAM, the old Dell literally flies with a snappy response...many, many thx my friend!!
@@reginaldcortez8392 Lol, I love how they made up a bunch of bs to justify preventing people from upgrading. I just recently got a surface pro 4 and windows 10 on a mobile device just isn't as good as win 11. About to install as I'm typing this
Excellent, works! For UK folk, when you select language on Win11 download, you will want ENGLISH INTERNATIONAL option, else does not let you update whilst keeping apps and persi data. Updates on Win11 seem to be working too. No issues thus far, i5 chip.
Did this on my two laptops. i5 4th Gen and i5 7th Gen last night 12/08/ 24. Both succeeded and both received updates. Others doing it with long procedure but you did it with just a simple move. You really something else. God bless you. Hoping to see solutions video for windows hello (facial recognition errors)
Worked like a charm on my Dell OptiPlex 7050 mini tower, didn't need to do anything in BIOS either. Very simple and straight forward way. I felt a bit lazy to coment, but then again, I thought you deserve a "Thank you". Once again, many thanks!
Wow, this worked so smoothly. I've been looking for this fix for over a year. The explanation was easy and worked perfectly. Everything was saved and I didn't lose any apps or data.
@@NETVN82 Hello sir first of all thank you for this video that i manage to download the Windows 11 Home Single Language.. Further, I would like to ask on how to get back in the old version because there is a lot of devices that could not compatible and its hard for my PC to fix it., please help me sir thank you so much!
Upgraded correctly no issues. I can do windows updates with no issues. Also, the activation key is the same as I had before. So no issues at all. Great work!
This person is just a gem In this time we just need to download the second window 11 disk image which is not 23H2 and it will work absolutely fine Now i am enjoying windows 11
@@TheGOAT0326nope, it says "keep all personal files and apps" and it will install windows 11 home for me, maybe cuz I have a windows 10 home, just try it and you will probably not regret it.
Wow, thank you. thought i would try updating an 10 year old i5 laptop i don't use anymore to windows 11 pro. Your video & instructions were easy to understand & follow. It took a while but i'm happy to say old laptop upgraded to window 11 pro. I feel confident now to upgrade my pc & other laptop.
This really does work. I have just done this on my laptop which I have had since 2013, and had windows 8.1. Now installed Windows 11. Works great. The only thing it asked me for was to install English UK language pack after installing. So once Windows 11 was installed, I went about it with no problem. Super easy. Thanks as Windows 10 updates cease in October 2025, and it saves me buying a new laptop for the foreseeable future.😊
100% authentic process, I applied in two of my old computers, and worked completely fine. Even after I am able to update my windows and other essential updates.
Thank you! Used these instructions to upgrade an i7-7700 with succes. It took almost two hours, so just sit back and relax and let the PC do its thing.
Thank you so much!!! I'm from Colombia, I followed your steps, and it worked perfectly, now I'm enjoying Windows 11 on an unsupported computer 🎊🎊 Thank you so much!!! greetings 🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴
This method worked for me! And I just received an update as well. I have an i7 6700k with no tpm at all and it worked smoothly keeping my old files and programs in tact.
@Guna Sai Swejandude this literally works. I took a risk trying it but it worked smoothly. Once you're in windows 11 it acts as if everything is normal. I have had one update so far and I also did a full os reinstall just to see if it would still install windows 11 and it did through the built in method. I've installed apps and programs and various normal things. Zero issues. Bluetooth works. Wifi works. Audio is normal. Its surprisingly perfect for me personally. If you're system isn't super super old and you have a 64 bit os already(that's required) you should be good i believe. It went from windows 10 home to windows 11 pro and I don't know why. It is bug free so far and I'm glad I took the chance. Follow the video exactly!
Tried to install on an old (2011) pc. Everything seemed to be going ok......although rather slowly.....until it got the very end of the instalation......just after where it says ''Getting Your Devices Ready'' ...........so bassically waiting it for it to go into windows 11 for the first time......and it just hung.....with the circle waiting thingy......After a bit of effing around and reboots Windows told me something like '' we are undoing changes made to your computer '' and luckily this worked to get me back to windows 10........I have Sonny Liston as my wallpaper and I have never been so happy to see Sonny Listons face in my life lol. Clearly other people are having good luck with this method, so thank you for your work/help.
As with many of the other comments I tried several times using the procedures of numerous other You Tube channels all of which failed. I was about to completely give up when I happened upon this and since it was different from any others I had previously tried decided to give it a shot one last time. IT WORKED. My problems had all been related to the secure boot requirement, which the others did not address. This method provided a means around it. If it's a true Windows 11 OS or simply the Windows 10 OS wearing a 11 dress, I do not know, but it serves my purposes for now. It defiantly required some patience and I had to do some work to get where I wanted to be but it's effective. I did gain some efficiency and performance but that may also be, at least partly, a side effect of it cleaning up my some of system in the process. I've used it to update two older computer systems a Lenovo and a Dell, with equal results. I wanted to keep the older computers to use some older OSes offline that won't properly run on newer systems, but this allows me to dual boot the systems and keep the old stuff isolated offline and use Windows 10/11 for some online needs.
@@gbhalla It is generally on par with windows 10 but in some areas I found it to be even better than windows 10! For example the pc shuts down and starts up really a lot faster than windows 10
@@imdeepak9918 you don't need to install windows 11 this way. Your device is supported by windows itself. This is for unsupported hardware, that is for computers below 8th gen intel processors. 8th gen and above 8th gen processors support windows 11 officially
I follow this tutorial and work 100% My laptop specs are the same as the video this (but my RAM 16Gb and SSD 450 Gb). My data is safe nothing is deleted. My files are all safe. There are no errors when upgrading from Windows 10 to Windows 11 and I hope that will be no problem in the future. Thanks again this really helped me.
@@muhammadraihan6141 Yes,, I had a problem after I installed I'm having the problem of not being able to open my Windows Defender and there are a few things in the settings that won't open. But I have reinstalled again with another tutorial and it worked. quite simple by using Rufus version 3.16, because the Extended Windows 11 feature is available (no TPM / no Secure Boot). I followed this tutorial : ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-tdQ886lyfjM.html
Thanks for making this video because i was searching from so many days to update my laptop hp elitebook 8440p . Finally i am using windows 11 in my laptop 😊
i'm now trying to do it, from now on it works really good! i'm at the place where you have to put the .esd file in Windows 11 :) keep up the good work :)
If you are planning on upgrading to windows 11 and wanting to play valorant, don’t do it as valorant is asking for Tpm 2.0 and secure boot so if you don’t have those two, then don’t do it 😀
So far so good, busy upgrading 22% completed at the moment, had no luck with any other methods not even the "legit Microsoft regedit option", thank you very much! just in case anyone needs this info, my device im doing on first is a HP ProBook 4540s
This works fine but after doing so you will find out that you do not have any Virus or Malware protection from Windows Defender. The Windows Security app will be completely empty. It was on all 3 computers that I used the 2 ISO method on. I guess you could use a Third party virus program if you like but I prefer not to go that route. If anyone figures out how to fix the issue please post it.
One way of avoiding the Windows Security app being unresponsive or completely empty is to do the following. After downloading 10 and 11 ISOs, disconnect from internet, completely uninstall any third party antivurus apps and then follow the procedure given here to upgrade. Thereafter one can immediately connect to internet, update Win11 and any other drivers, etc. Third party antivirus apps are known to take full control of windows security, making it unresponsive.
This is the best windows 11 tutorial video ever in the entire universe, it's so easy. And work, other video I try either it doesn't work or i am too lazy to watch it, but yours work, I just wanted to say thank you so much for your help!
I have two drives on my laptop and I am booting windows from one drive and using the other one for storage so on which/what drive should I install the iso file.plz someone reply.........
choose any device u want but it will clear all data on that device and install windows, dont install it on storage because theres are "probably" have your datas
Not able to install it. After 100% loading windows 10 remains the same without update and shows the below message: 0xC1900101 - 0X20017 The installation failed in the SAFE_OS phase with an error during BOOT operation.
I'll be honest, if you have Windows 10 on a pretty old computer, i don't recommend you upgrade it, because: 1. You're literally wasting time, cause since it's a pretty old pc you won't see many changes in therms of performance 2. You're simply torturing the pc that way 3. Windows 10 still works just fine, so, if you have an old pc, wait until you get a new one and then you can install it
Very helpful video, thank you. If I run now Windows 10 Pro and upgrade using this tutorial will I still be running the Pro version of 11? When I upgraded my newer laptop that met the specifications the Pro version crossed over.
I was stuck on "checking your system" in the windows 11 installer. Now i used this method, replacing the windows 10 install file with the windows 11 one and the "checking your system" only took a few seconds! It's installing right now, thanks very much! I have an old laptop with a intel i5 7400, both TPM and the CPU are not supported. Tried to do the registry entry, but it didnt work. The method from the video fixed it!
I was my dream to get windows 11 but i dont have the TPM 2.0 but wit your solution i have now windows 11 thank you so much for reaching one of my dreams
this is unbelievable, nothing worked. I almost gave up, I am so grateful!!!! 2 years old solution, still works like a charm!!! Thank you! God Bless !!!!
I'm wondering about that as well. This seems suspicious, as he's actually installing the Win10 image and deletes the entire Win11 image except one little file...
I believe I've seen other methods to upgrade unsupported hardware PCs from Windows 10 to Windows 11. It'd be interesting to know the advantages, disadvantages to the various different methods. Also, some are saying not to update to Windows 11 yet at all? Again, it be nice to understand what the competing views are on this too.
it started installing. fingers crossed. I hadn't file install.wim in win11/sources folder. so I have copied install.esd to win 10/ sources folder. hopefully it will be done...
Thanks bro for telling me this tutorial, your the best! Also it still works till now guys you should try it, everything you had in windows 10 you get it in windows 11. Same account of the pc, everything is the same, but there is just somethings that are more cooler. You should try it if your pc is unsupported.
Thank you, the video helped a lot and I successfully installed it and it works like a dream but I ran into an issue where my Windows Security doesn`t open but instead is freezing up. Might you have insight on this and any fixes? I would appreciate the help
