Computers on which Windows 11 is installed must meet clear system requirements. However, users have been able to find workarounds to allow the operating system to be used on devices that do not meet Microsoft’s requirements. Now the software giant has begun to close the loopholes that allow this to happen.
At the time of the release of Windows 11, there was some confusion with system requirements. Users could not install the OS on sufficiently powerful computers, for example, due to the lack of a TPM 2.0 module. Quite quickly, users found several workarounds, one of which was skipping the system requirements check step during the OS installation process. To do this, it was enough to add the “/product server” parameter to the Windows 11 installer executable file.
Although this method of installing Windows 11 has been around for over a year, it looks like Microsoft has decided to block it. According to the source, after installing one of the recent patches for the beta version of Windows 11 on the Canary channel, the mentioned method stopped working. Microsoft developers are probably monitoring workarounds to install the OS and blocking them. Since blocking installation on incompatible devices is currently only relevant for beta versions of Windows 11 on the Canary channel, you can still use this workaround on stable versions of the OS. However, the emergence of this innovation means that it will soon be widespread.
