This new update for PC Health Check Tool will help users who assumed Windows compatibility issues were TPM related.įor those unaware, the basic requirements for the new operating system include “TPM 2.0”, a processor with 1Ghz clock speed or faster, 2+ cores, 4GB of RAM, system firmware with UEFI and Secure Boot capable, compatibility with DirectX 12, and your device must have a 9-inch+ HD display (720p).Įven if you don’t meet the above requirements, you can still run the new operating system on devices with processors from Intel, AMD and Qualcomm. While this PC doesn’t meet the system requirements to run Windows 11, you’ll keep getting Windows 10 updates. The system disk needs to be 64 GB or larger.We recommend that you check if TPM 2.0 is enabled. TPM 2.0 is a requirement for running Windows 11.
It now provides more detailed info on requirements not met,” Microsoft said.Īccording to the updated tool, devices with the following issues cannot upgrade to Windows 11: If you don't want to waste time looking for your CPU and all of this sounds too confusing, let the PC Health Check app do that for you.“We just made updates to the PC Health Check App. Some of AMD's 2nd-gen Ryzen CPUs are whitelisted too.
Qualcomm's Snapdragon 850 or newer are also supported. But that will likely happen after the stable version of Windows 11 comes around.Īs of now, only selected Intel 7th Generation chips are eligible - Core i7-7820HQ, Core X and Xeon W series can run Windows 11 officially. And if not, it will include Intel's 7th-gen and AMD's 2nd-gen Ryzen CPUs in the officially supported hardware. Microsoft has taken note, though, and says that it will monitor if users participating in the Insider's program that run the said CPUs are having issues with Windows 11. Those are the CPUs from Intel's 7th Generation lineup and some of AMD's second-generation Ryzen chips.
However, there are a handful of ones that meet the minimal requirements but won't be supported by Windows 11. More limiting is the requirement for the TPM 2.0 feature that needs to be enabled via the BIOS settings if supported. You need 64-bit CPU with at least two cores and 1GHz clock speed, 4GB of RAM and 64GB of minimal internal storage. Now, it's available for download again and you can see if your hardware qualifies. It was taken down shortly after due to some controversy regarding the system requirements. Upon Windows 11's announcement, Microsoft shared a Windows 11 PC Health Check app that scans your computer to see if it's eligible for the major Windows update.
