It is noteworthy that Microsoft faced a similar problem last year when it offered to upgrade to Windows 11 on personal computers that were not officially supported. That incident did allow unsupported PCs to upgrade, but once once more highlighted Microsoft’s stringent and controversial minimum hardware requirements for upgrading to the latest version of its operating system.
Windows 11 officially requires that the PC contain the eighth generation (Coffee Lake) Intel processors and later, or (Zen 2) and later AMD processors, with very few exceptions. While there are ways to allow Windows 11 to be installed on unsupported processors, Microsoft is introducing a new watermark on the desktop on unsupported devices.
It is noteworthy that this error from Microsoft comes before the expected date in the coming weeks to provide some additional improvements to the Windows 11 operating system. In the update, which is called within Microsoft the name (Moment 2) Moment 2, the company is preparing to add a complete search box to the taskbar, and improve Start menu search, an improved taskbar for tablets, and a new system tray design.
