​​​​​​​​​@@dreaper5813 As a former linux user, i don't recommend linux to anyone, unless you have a really old computer that doesn't work well with Windows anymore. I used multiple Linux distros (basically versions, or editions. For example, linux mint, arch linux, debian, etc) for a year, and then I switched back to Windows. Sometimes i did really enjoy using linux, but often times it was just a whole bunch of frustration because Linux has too many compatibility problems. Linux has some driver problems/shortcomings with certain configurations. Linux has a ton of problems with other software compatibility too. It was very annoying having to run most of my favourite games and programs with weird compatibility layers that would make the performance most often worse than on Windows. Most developers of most programs don't bother too much with creating Linux native versions, because there's just not enough demand, and it's also often difficult to do. There's not nearly enough demand for developers to want to go through all the trouble that comes with making Linux native programs. Also, i'll never forget how tedious it was to install some of the distros... Overall i don't recommend Linux desktop operating system to people who just want things to work, and i especially don't recommend Linux to people who are new to computers.

I bought a key for less than $2. It's been 4 years now. Maybe I got lucky.

[@alwaysemployed656]

Fun Fact: I actually discovered that a 3rd generation non-TPM PC can actually boot and run Windows 11 perfectly fine without any issues. I was getting ready to install W-11 on a brand new build I made, then realized I forgot to retrieve the product key off the prior build. I connected the prior ssd boot drive to a 3rd gen pc, not thinking that ahead that it may not boot because 3rd gen PCs don't have TPM, it booted perfectly fine and normal, it even automatically downloaded drivers for the 3rd gen PC and kept on working fine. CAN you install Windows 11 on a 3rd Gen PC? The answer is no because the install will detect the 3rd gen PC not having TPM. CAN you pull the boot drive with Windows 11 off a 4th gen and 5th gen PC then connect the boot drive to a 3rd gen PC and have it work? The answer is yes.

One note - you don't need a Windows machine to start this process. If you go to the microsoft windows 11 website from a non-windows machine, it will allow you to download the iso directly which you can burn to a bootable USB using a tool appropriate for that OS. I did it from a raspberry pi.

One thing Marcus hasn’t mentioned in the video is the usb flash drive needs to be no bigger than 32GB. I tried to install it using a 64GB drive and it wouldn’t install it. Ended up using a 16GB drive to do it. Once it was under way the install was lightning quick. 👍🏻👍🏻

You CAN install Windows 11 without being connected to the internet and WITHOUT signing into a Microsoft account, thereby giving them all your data. Definitely recommend just using a local account for privacy.

[@IamSavoiiMusic]

Another option if your wifi or Ethernet is not working during the install process (mobo drivers not making hardware work) you can get a USB wireless adapter that you simply plug into USB and it will pick up your wifi for around $10. Chances are this will work because it's a more basic driver type that is available in the Windows 11 install files. Once you get the initial OS setup, then you can go get your fancy driver for your fancy (likely very new model so not supported yet by OS install media) mobo! Good to go.

I very recently upgraded Win 10 to Win 11 using the assistant and you have forgotten to mention a step which if you have not performed will cause your Win 11 instillation to fail! (ok over dramatic, it might fail) Check your BIOS settings before the install.. First off I have a ROG Strix X570-E Gaming and I updated to the very latest BIOS the day I decided to upgrade. Unlike the old BIOS the new version turns on the Trusted Platform Module 2.0 by default. What I didn't know and after Day 2 of Win 11 failing to install (after hours of waiting to 99% and stuck at > research > do a reboot as MS Forum suggested)... Now with an error code 0xc0000005 I eventually researched that code which mentioned memory access can be blocked, it was jargon to me ?? but I dragged myself back to the BIOS again where there was a section about memory access which was had choices of auto or generic or Windows. Changing that to Windows and Win 11 installed without a hitch. So check the BIOS first bro :)

When it comes to keys, I don't think Microsoft care very much about this. They upgraded people for free with Windows 10 keys for ages as well as other schemes to get people upgraded.

What other things/files should one download and transfer over to the new PC? Like what is safe to delete vs not

[@JJFlores197]

That's a tough one to answer as there is a ton of stuff you can potentially remove. In most instances, its best to leave your PC as-is. If you really want to customize your system by removing unnecessary files and programs, I strongly suggest that you make a system image first. That way, if you accidentally delete or modify something critical, you can re-image your system and back at the point of the backup.

[@JJFlores197]

Lookup Chris Titu s Tech ' s Windows Utili ty. Its a good all-in-one solution to perform many optimizations and install multiple programs at once. There are many other programs and scr1 pts tha do similar things, but there's always the potential to accidentally delete or modify the wrong file. Again, make a backup BEFORE doing any of this. I'm trying to avoid the youtube censors, so that's why some of the words are intentionally misspelled or cut in half.

If you are building your own PC and you want it to work correctly, then yes. A PC you build has no operating system installed. An OS is important as that is the main way you interface with the computer. Without one, your computer won't do anything useful. Its like trying to drive a car that has no powertrain. If you buy a pre-built gaming PC, then everything should be done for you. Its pretty much plug and play.

You unplug the USB drive after you install Windows and the computer reboots.

[@helin4441]

what are the product keys for if u dont need it for the installation?

[@JJFlores197]

The product key is used to activate your Windows installation. Windows is not technically free software. Microsoft expects you to pay for Windows. When you do so, you get a product key that you enter at the time of installation or after installation in the Settings app. This product key is used to activate the version and edition of Windows.
