It has to be able to bypass the Windows 11 compatibility checking, so there would have to be some differences in setup files.

Rufus 3.18 is available as an app from the Windows Store, by the way. That doesn't guarantee its safety, but you normally can trust apps from the Store. Perhaps you could try that one and see if it behaves the same?

It's open source as well. Full code and compilation instructions are available on https://github.com/pbatard/rufus.

That sounds worrrying, but I don't see anything like that. 🤔 Could you provide a screenshot of what you're seeing?

On the thumb drive I used, there are two partitions, one NTFS containing the Windows installation files, and one FAT32 UEFI boot partition. Between them, they take up the entire drive space. There are no mystery partitions or even any free space. Both partitions can be mounted and are accessible with File Explorer. The contents of both look quite normal and appropriate.
[Windows 11] persona78:
Probably is becase NTFS.

Just create pendrive and try to zip it, you will see it inside the zip. Is hide. And if try to extract the zip to desktop you not be able to see it because it will be hide! So is better to not do it!

I try to create a ISO from zip and was a pain in the ass to find and delete it!!!!
[Windows 11] lpedia:
OK, now I understand.

This is normal. Windows always creates a hidden "System Volume Information" folder on the system drive and on all mounted partitions, including removable drives. If the partition is NTFS format, the folder will be inaccessible. The folder belongs to the Windows SYSTEM Authority and should not be accessed by anything else, not even the Administrator or Administrators group, because it contains data that the running system needs to protect - eg, system restore points (if configured), Indexing Service Database, Volume Shadow Copy, etc.

So it's OK, and to be expected, that a zip utility can't do anything with that folder if it's on an NTFS partition. You'd need a different tool for making image backups of Windows systems, if that's what you were trying to do.
[Windows 11] V0latyle:
This is an excellent resource to bypass TPM and hardware limits. Windows images are freely available, you just have to source your own activation, and in this case you'll need a 32GB USB flash drive.

Edit: looks like it's been mentioned before.

I'm an old timer so I'm pretty stuck in my ways. It took me forever to upgrade to Windows 10 from 7, and now I'm running IoT LTSC 21H2 because I want the long term support without the pushy upgrades.

As far as TPM goes...personally I'd advise disabling it as it's a potential privacy risk (unique identifier for your PC) and a potential hobble for those who like complete control over their PC.

[Windows 11] lpedia:
Where are these being reported? I haven't seen any mentions of such problems.
[Windows 11] :
instead of going through the installer, bypass this by deploying the system via dism instead
[Windows 11] Rares Papel:
To fix this without enabling tpm 2.0 do this, first download the windows 11 iso and rufus you will also need a 8 gb flash drive or bigger with no data on it then select the iso using rufus and where you select how you want it to be on the flash drive select windows 11 instalation without tpm 2.0 this is the only option i know this involves complete data loss
[Windows 11] lpedia:
You need at least Rufus 3.18 for this. Earlier versions don't have the Win 11 option.

If you do a fresh install using the flash drive Rufus has set up, it will wipe the existing data, just as it would if you were manually installing with the standard Win 11 installation media.

However, you can upgrade Windows 10 to 11 using the standard procedure for upgrading with installation media: boot your Windows 10 system as usual, plug in the Windows 11 installation media, and run the setup.exe that 's on the media.

If you boot from the installation kit and ask it to update an existing installation and keep user data, you will be told to do the above instead.
[Windows 11] Srarboymax97:
Ooh! I know what the issue is! You dont have the tpm 2.0 chip, it's a chip for encryption if I'm right and you need it to run windows 11

[Windows 11] lpedia:
Yes, you can add a TPM2 chip to a motherboard if it has the socket for it - but not all motherboards (especially older ones) have it. Check your motherboard's documentation first.

Depending upon your motherboard, the location to enable it in bios will differ. You have to search around and find the setting. It usually is under or near the Security tab.

With Rufus is easier, I tried with a i5 4..series and gigabyte motherboard with 1. tpm;

download iso from official Microsoft as described in previous post, download also Rufus here: https://rufus.ie

when open rufus, select iso and before destination, usb key select to install No TPM and NO secure boot version, and ...key is written and working with oldest pc, is running good, suggest, at least 4 gb ram...
[Windows 11] Jvr2022:
hello svetius what motherboard do you have
[Windows 11] &(*):
A very good idea, but I wonder how you would adjust the partitioning with the shift from mbr to gpt with dism? Write a tutorial @$cronos_ . It would take a bit more work but plopping the image in via dism would most definitely be a command line approach to installing 11.
[Windows 11] &(*):
I do wonder how everyone thinks subverting the TPM requirement is a good idea? @V0latyle mentions that the signing done with the key from the TPM supplies a UUID, but it is unclear how accessible it is for corporations to pluck it from your install or what use it would have other than identifiying the install as valid and the hardware that is running it (which they can already do). Encrypting your system partition provides safeguards. I think running 11 without the necessary hardware is like running a legacy install instead of a UEFI install. Seems like it's mostly not a good idea based on the algorithms now in play with boot. Honestly, why even use Windows 11 knowing it's even more vulnerable with this method?

I got the solution for your error and it will work definitely on your said system.

1. Restart your PC

2. Hold down the F2 key (FN F2 if no dedicated function keys) during boot-up to get to the BIOS menu.

3. Use the arrow keys to navigate to the Security tab

4. Find a listing for either TPM, Intel Platform Trust Technology (IPTT), or AMD CPU TPM

5. Toggle to “Enabled”

6. Finally, hit F10 to Save and Exit BIOS

Mention me in case of any further assistance in this regard.
[Windows 11] Concept48:
It's very simple , download latest RUFUS and create a USB that will support old bios you dont need TPM to run windows 11
[Windows 11] Concept48:
Rufus latest build will help .
[Windows 11] fleisch80:
Don't even concern yourself , or worry about Tpm , etc.

You CAN run windows 11 on ANY older computer.

What you do is get the windows iso , get Rufus the iso image creator then

Under Rufus settings choose create and remove windows 11 tpm , and other

windows restrictions.

After that let Rufus load the modified iso onto USB , now you'll have a win 11 that installs

on everything out there without checking for requirements.

I honestly can't remember if using Rufus , you still needed to include a registry bios

Text hack to work with initial windows requirement menu ,

I DONT think you do ,

Either way later today ill reply back and double check on that.
[Windows 11] fleisch80:
Theres a newer better method . you now don't need to copy any win 10 files to strip the

win 11 restrictions.
[Windows 11] fleisch80:
as previous members stated , theres no need for any hacked files ,hacked registry

entries , etc . use rufus and it will strip out any and ALL restrictions.

HOWEVER ////////////////////////////////////////////////

FOR PEOPLE ON WINDOWS 7 ,

YOU WILL NOT SEE THE RUFUS MENU OPTION TO SELECT REMOVE WIN 11

RESTRICTIONS ////////////////////////////////////

YOU AT LEAST NEED TO BE RUNNING WIN 8 for the rufus program to show you

the remove win 11 restrictions for iso option.

this glitch in rufus is because win 7 does not have the more updated necessary system files

that rufus needs to perform the modify iso functiion.
[Windows 11] fleisch80:
for everyone out there , i would convert and use rufus now to strip out the

restrictions of the iso. i have a feeling once too many people get wise on how to do it using rufus ,

microsoft will tell them to remove that feature .
[Windows 11] fleisch80:
i even installed win 11 on a chromebook .

the rufus tool does work great to strip restrictions and checks.
[Windows 11] mrcutiepatootie:
Since Windows 11 installer became available, I never liked how a lot of the guides modify the installer (reuse of Win10 installer, regedit, using modified files, etc) when really you don't even need to do anything to the installer. Leave it untouched and install Windows via DISM to get around the requirements. All this does is literally image Windows to your disk and is your best bet to installing Windows 11.

The easiest way I have found is download the latest 22h2 version of Windows 11 and flash it to a usb drive. Download Windows 10 or use your current copy that is extracted and copy the appraiserres.dll from the \sources folder. Paste the appraiserres.dll to the sources folder in your Win 11 on the usb drive. You now have a copy of 22h2 Win 11 that you can install on any computer that can run Windows.

[Windows 11] sepepper:
I have 2 PC's, both running Gigabyte motherboards and Windows 10. One is an AB350 with a 20 pin TPM header, the other is a newer B550 board with a 12 pin TPM header. I got a 3rd party manufactured 20 pin TPM board, it is recognized by the AB350 so I imagine it would allow it to upgrade to Win 11. I discovered the B550 board has the 12 pin TPM header so I just ordered the 12 pin board for it, so we'll see what happens when I enable the TPM security feature in BIOS. I have the CPU's TPM disabled in both boards' BIOS's.
[Windows 11] sepepper:
OK I learned some new things while updating my PC upgraded with the B550 board (I got the 12 pin TPM card, it was recognized in BIOS). First, I didn't realize my SSD's boot loader was MBR and not GPT-- I learned that when I changed the BIOS to secure boot (after disabling CSM) and the PC would not boot Windows, only kept returning to BIOS directly. So the workaround to get my SSD boot loader to GPT was to change back to CSM temporarily, start Windows, use the recovery tool in update/security to boot into Command line, then use a tool "MBR2GPT". Used the /validate extension first to check that it had no errors, then reran the tool with the /convert extension to complete the change. Then went back to BIOS to re-disable CSM and re-enable secure booting, restarted Windows, then ran the PC Health Checkup tool to see if it is OK to install Windows 11-- finally, it did report it is Windows 11 ready.
[Windows 11] alfaputra:
Hello, thank you so much for your development work
[Windows 11] JenniferPaterson:
It sounds like you are encountering an error related to TPM (Trusted Platform Module). TPM is a hardware component that is built into some computers and is used to store cryptographic keys and measure the boot process to ensure that the system has not been tampered with.

If you believe that the error you are seeing may be related to TPM, there are a few things you can try:

Check your BIOS settings to see if TPM is enabled. You can usually access the BIOS settings by pressing a key (such as F2 or Del) when your computer first starts up. Look for an option related to TPM and make sure it is enabled.

Check to see if your computer has a TPM chip installed. Some computers come with a TPM chip, while others do not. If your computer does not have a TPM chip, you will not be able to use TPM features.

Make sure that your operating system is fully up to date. TPM functionality may require updates to your operating system in order to work correctly.

If you are still encountering issues after trying the above steps, you may want to try checking for updates to your BIOS or contacting the manufacturer of your computer for further assistance.

If you cannot install Win11 in a normal Way then try to install images that doesn't need to match the hardware needings

I have such modified Images, or you try to make a bootable USB Stick with the actual version of "Rufus" (I think 3.21 is the newest). It's a portable App that doesn't need to be installed, but you have to modify some settings in the App.

Rufus can modify the windows image for installing on a device that doesn't meet the windows hardware needing.

[Windows 11] lukegonewild:
Tpm can be bypassed via rufus, which gives you the option to install an iso file on usb, remember that if your computer configuration is weak and windows 11 requires really good performance for optimal work and that it works without problems, that means it concerns the cpu and memory , I had an experience when I used 11 on a lower performance computer and I didn't like it, so without a doubt today for me Windows 10 is 🔥 don't force the upgrades, it's a $$ thing.

[Windows 11] prateekkumar1:
You should be happy that you're eager to try Windows 11! Nevertheless, since your computer lacks TPM 2.0, installing it can provide some difficulties. Despite the fact that there exist workarounds, it's crucial to remember that they might not always be dependable or secure. Also, even though the UI and Android app compatibility through the Amazon store are intriguing aspects, they might need more powerful systems to function properly. To fully benefit from the new features and advantages of Windows 11, it might be worthwhile to upgrade your computer.
