I am guessing that my unsupported Laptop running Windows 11 22H2 will update to 23H2 without a problem. As MS has done with Windows 10 the new features will be installed during normal updates and then enabled when ready. We shall see in October.

I have an old Lenovo Laptop from 2013. It does not meet the requirements for Windows 11. It has an AMD A10-5750M CPU and no TPU. It was running Windows 10 Pro 22H2 with latest build. I replaced the appraiserres.dll with a blank version. Uploaded the Windows 11 ISO and did a repair install. It...

It was a MS error. Microsoft accidentally offers Windows 11 upgrades to unsupported PCs again

I have a program that I use to Install Windows 7 games. It worked on Windows 8, 8.1,10 and now on W11 I used an older version but here is an updated version of the program. Windows 7 Games for Windows 11, Windows 10, Windows 8.1, and Windows 8. Happy camper. Jim :cool:

All my 6 year old systems won't run Windows 11 as no TPM. I will stay on W 10 for a few more years (2025) or until they die. Jim :poop:
