I recently (9/8/23) decided to I wanted to break out my ThinkPad W520, bought in 2010 and running Windows 7. Missed the Windows10 upgrade window, and the Windows11 upgrade from Windows10 so bought a flash drive direct from Microsoft with Windows11 Home. Used the LabConfig regedit as described, and was able to install with no issues! 👌 Internet connection was required at the end, though I was fine with this and did not try to bypass. Microsoft Account is bypassable by entering invalid email and password. You’ll then be prompted to create a local account. Seriously works like a charm and OS runs well. Thank you Linus for your Tech Tips!

[@digitalclips]

Kudos Linus and your team: Your genius swap the .esd file from an 11 to a 10 installation USB even worked on my iMac i9 and created a bootable external SSD for Windows 11 on my iMac 27" i9 which already has an external Win 10 SSD. The Booted 11 also picked up the license I have for 10 on that Mac once I signed into my MS account after the installation. I'd gone with No Product Key assuming I'd be stuck at a trial version, but no... My iMac is now fully licensed 11 and updating like a champ.

I actually figured out this because when you ask windows for compatibility it shows what you’re missing

[@TheBigLou13]

TPM is used to identify a computer - no matter how many reinstalls. They call this "security and privacy" in all official documents. Its true. And can be used to bypass encryption - or rather reading out the key. The way TPM is used is a hardware safespace for spyware - undetectable by software. Its pretty much what the Stasi has done with telephones and buildings - but now with computer hardware - "for absolut security".

There's another way to get past the Microsoft account requirement for setting up windows 11 if you already set it up on the Wi-Fi or connected to the internet it will prompt you to put in a email to use for a Microsoft account if you just put [e-mail] and then hit enter and then type in a garbage password it will just shove you to create a local account

[@Pyroteq]

Or do what I did... Bring up task manager and then blindly open CMD and type in the commands to disable the wireless card. The window is hidden behind the setup window (or was on Win 10 last time I did it) so you can't actually see what you're typing.

[@evergreatest7644]

@@Pyroteq this is cool, but I like the main comment's idea more.

[@lekhakaananta5864]

Is that an actual local account? Because if not, and you're simply signing up with a "random" email you don't control, this is a known security flaw. Now whoever controls [e-mail] can use password reset to steal your stuff. Context: I recall a story where a hacker realized he could just register "[e-mail]" and get a bunch of random emails that were sent there, and used these leads to gain further credentials. (This is because some companies would send emails with that bogus address as their 'reply' address, so they wouldn't have to ever receive emails to stuff not meant to be replied to. But if the user actually replied, including having it on CC, then this unintentionally leaks email communication to whoever controlled that bogus address)

Honestly I kinda get it, for business environments we use TPM built into all our machines for security purposes. Having native support for this on every machine going forward makes sense in terms of security. Also this last year has been a massive change in the world in terms of security. So many things have happened which affected the future of technology. Now we need to go way beyond 60% more secure on systems.. we need better security.

I'm exaggerating a bit but everyone is complaining that what they have can't run it and will have to be thrown away despite that missing the point of what's going on entirely. They just want it because it's new and want exceptions for their systems despite the fact their build defeats the purpose of W11. I'm biased because I bought a new laptop but even if I was on 8 I'd basically still be using PC the same way.

[@DukeNukemFl]

@@edwardhoffenheim3249 true, but I don't think that will entirely be the point of it.. the average household user doesn't typically get attacked by malware unless they stumble across something online.. it's honestly pretty hard to do so still. Where as business and corporate environments have versions of windows the majority of the public probably wouldn't even know about, I don't think this is meant for those people. It's probably meant for system admins and companies who want advanced security... I get this working in IT for a large company, but at home on my gaming laptop.. couldn't really care less about it. I'm not torrenting or downloading weird files from online even.

[@edwardhoffenheim3249]

@@DukeNukemFl I don't see the point about caring about the new windows at all for regular consumers. Especially the complaints. It's mostly a cosmetic change for the majority of people. Everyone making articles on TMP kinda just inflates demand and gives the illusion that it's critical when the reality is most people didn't even need windows 10. I see people getting along fine with windows 8 or even 7. The only reason I was hyped for windows 10 is because I thought windows phone was gonna be a thing and I was young and thought it could give speed boost and I did get hype points for having it in my friend group. But meh, I guess it's just content creators using free/easy content to generate clicks and views.

I recently installed win11 in a vm to run some games that weren't supported on linux. I gave it enough ram/cores/disk space, but the installer (very helpfully) informed me that my pc "couldn't run windows 11" without saying why. I was able to just go into the terminal, run regedit, and add some bypass keys to disable the check for secure boot and tmp. It worked fine after that, but what's the point of having it in the first place? Needing to do all that just to install an operating system in a vm is so idiotic to me. What's the point in intentionally trying to limit the number of people who can use your software?
