Windows 11 Home Upgrade - Pretty Good
#1
Awesome!  I followed these steps and how upgraded my laptop to Windows 11, it runs so much faster/smoother! 

I didn't have to update the registry as the item already showed up.  I think it showed up automatically when I ran the Windows 11 compatibility check, it failed and mentioned I don't have a supported CPU. 

I then ran the upgrade as per instructions and the menu popped up again about unsupported CPU, I click Accept and continued with install.

Overall, very happy with the upgrade! I am on 8GB and a SSD, very snappy... I can't imagine people using 4GB ram with this, I highly recommend 8 or more like 16 for ram intensive applications.

Since I use my laptop to work from home, I am reluctant to upgrade. That has bitten me in the butt in the past.

My understanding (though I haven't looked into this) was that this statement is in reference to users making use of workarounds to install win11 on non-supported hardware. If that's the case, that makes sense.

If it's a blanket statement in their policy for all installations, then yeah that's bad news.
