Update on Windows 11 minimum system requirements and PC Health Check app

Today’s blog post provides two updates. First, an update on Windows 11 minimum system requirements based, in part, on feedback from the Windows Insider community. Second, information on the updated PC Health Check app that is now available to Windows Insiders. Since the introduction of Windows...

If you’d like to see if your current PC meets the minimum requirements, download and run the PC Health Check app.


This tutorial will show you step by step on how to clean install Windows 11 on your PC with or without an Internet connection and with a local account or Microsoft account.


It is required to be connected to the Internet if you want to set up a Microsoft account during Windows Setup.

It is not required to be connected to the Internet if you want to set up a local account during Windows Setup.


If you set up a Microsoft account during Windows Setup, your user profile folder in the "C:\Users" folder will be named with the first 5 characters of the email address used for your Microsoft account.

If you are someone that cares what the name of your user profile folder is in the "C:\Users" folder, then you will want to set up a local account during Windows Setup so your user profile folder will have the same name you give as the local account name. When Windows 11 has finished installing, you can switch to a Microsoft account from the local account (if wanted) without the user profile folder name getting changed.




Here's How:

1 If you have not already, you will need to create a bootable Windows 11 installation USB that supports UEFI mode.

2 Temporarily disconnect all non OS hard drives until Windows installation has finished for the following reasons:
  • To avoid you mistakenly deleting or formatting the wrong disk or drive.
  • To prevent Windows Setup from installing the boot configuration files (bootloader) to a different connected hard drive instead of on the disk Windows will be installed on.
3 Boot to the UEFI firmware settings for your motherboard, and enable UEFI or disable Legacy BIOS (CSM) mode.

Usually it will be set to UEFI mode by default if supported. You may need to read your PC's or motherboard's manual for its specific instructions on how to change this setting.


4 Boot from the Windows 11 installation USB flash drive on your computer.

5 Select your language, time and currency, and keyboard or input method preferences, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-1.jpg

6 Click/tap on the Install Now button to start Windows Setup for the installation. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-2.jpg

7 Enter your Windows 11 product key, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshot below)

The product key you enter will determine which edition of Windows 11 gets installed.

You can enter an official Windows 7, Windows 8.1, or Windows 10 retail product key (OEM keys will not work) not currently used to activate Windows on another PC, and click/tap on Next to activate Windows 11.

If you do not have a product key available right now, then you can click/tap on the I don't have a product key link to be able to manually activate Windows 11 later when you do have a product key.

If you wanted to select an edition of Windows 11 to install, then click/tap on the I don't have a product key link. You can manually activate Windows 11 later after the Windows 11 installation has finished.

If you want to activate with a digital license linked to your Microsoft account, then click/tap on the I don't have a product key link, and add your Microsoft account at step 20 below.

You will not be asked to enter a product key if installing Windows 11 Enterprise. You will need to manually activate later after installation has finished.

If this is an OEM PC that has a valid product key embedded in its UEFI firmware chip, then you will not be prompted to enter a product key. Windows 11 will automatically use the embedded product key if its valid for the edition being installed. If needed, you can change the product key after installation has finished.

8 If you clicked on I don't have a product key in step 7 above, then select the Windows 11 edition you want to install, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshots below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-4.jpg
Clean_install_Windows_11-5.jpg

9 Check the I accept the Microsoft Software License Terms box, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-6.jpg

10 Click/tap on the Custom: Install Windows only (advanced) option. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-7.jpg

11 Perform one of the following actions to select a drive or disk to install Windows 11 on: (see screenshots below)
  • Delete all partitions on the Drive # (ex: Drive 0) you want to install Windows 11 until that Drive # shows only as one Unallocated Space, select the unallocated space, and click/tap on Next.
  • Select a Primary or unallocated partition on a drive you want to install Windows 11, Delete the partition/volume if not already unallocated, click/tap on OK to confirm, and click/tap on Next.

If no drives can be found during Windows 11 or Windows 10 installation (Intel 11th Generation processors)


Clean_install_Windows_11-8.jpg
Clean_install_Windows_11-8B.jpg

12 The installation of Windows 11 will now begin. (see screenshots below)

During the installation process, your screen may flash and the computer will restart a few times.


Clean_install_Windows_11-9.jpg
Clean_install_Windows_11-10.jpg

13 Select your country or region (ex: "United States"), and click/tap on Yes. (see screenshot below)

If you would like to set up this PC to have an OOBE (Out-of-box Experience) so another user/owner can pick up at this step to finish setting up Windows on the PC with their own account and preferences the next time the PC it turned on, then:

1. Press the Shift + F10 keys when you see the screenshot below to open a command prompt.
2. Type C:\Windows\System32\shutdown -s -t 0 -f into the command prompt, and press Enter to shut down Windows.



Clean_install_Windows_11-11.jpg

14 Select the keyboard layout (ex: "US") you want, and click/tap on Yes. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-12.jpg

15 Select Add layout or Skip depending on if you want to add a second keyboard layout or not. (see screenshot below)

Clean_install_Windows_11-13.jpg

16 Windows Setup will now check for an Internet connection. If an Internet connection is not detected, it will prompt you to connect and select an Ethernet network and/or setup and connect to a wireless network (if available), and click/tap on Next. (see screenshots below)

It is required to have an Internet connection if you want to set up a Microsoft account, or work or school account.

If you have an Internet connection, you will be able to set up a local account (if wanted) when you get to step 21.

If installing a Windows 11 Pro or Education edition and you currently do not have an Internet connection available, click/tap on I don't have Internet, and go to step 21D to set up a local account. (see bottom screenshot)

If you don't have an Internet connection and none of the above worked for you, then press the Shift + F10 keys to open a command prompt. Copy and paste the OOBE\BYPASSNRO command into the command prompt, and press Enter. This will restart the computer, and take you back to step 13. You should then be able to click/tap on I don't have internet when you get back to this step, and go to step 21D to set up a local account. (see bottom screenshot)

If the OOBE\BYPASSNRO command doesn't work for you, then copy and paste the MSOOBE\BYPASSNRO command into the command prompt, and press Enter. This will restart the computer, and take you back to step 13. You should then be able to click/tap on I don't have internet when you get back to this step, and go to step 21D to set up a local account. (see bottom screenshot)

17 Type a name you want for the PC, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshot below)

You can always rename the PC at anytime if needed.

Your PC name cannot have more then 15 characters.

Your PC name cannot have spaces or any of the following special characters: " /\ [] : | <> + + ; , ?

18 Select Set up for personal use (home PC) or Set up for work or school (domain) for how you would like to set up this device, and click/tap on Next. (see screenshot below)

You will not see this step if installing a Windows 11 Home edition. Go to step 19 instead.

If you want to set up a local account you will need to select Set up for personal use.

If you selected Set up for work or school, go directly to step 20.

19 Click/tap on Sign in if you selected Set up for personal use at step 18, and go to the step below depending on if your want to set up a local account or Microsoft account to sign in to Windows 11 with. (see screenshot below)

One thing that is definitely cool in Win11 clean installs is that you get to name the PC during the setup phase, versus having a generic name assigned that you have to later change and then reboot to have it take.

Hello John, :)

It depends on if you have digital activation for W11 or not.

If you do, you could skip entering a product key, and set up the Microsoft account during setup that is linked to the digital activation.

Ok I might just skip for the time being as I have to see whether or to my main desktop will accept Windows 11 as it does have an Ivy Bridge CPU which I think could handle OS. Currently waiting for a TPM module I managed to find on eBay only problem is that it has to come from New Zealand.
As well just how do you get that digital activation for Windows 11??

As a matter of interest why do they insist on the later CPU's as my Ivy Bridge seems to handle anything I throw at it??

I did a clean install of Windows 11 (using 22000.51) on a machine that had a digital license. It activated online automatically.

This is just speculation, but it may be for a supported security feature by CPU.

I agree.. it's not about processor performance it's about the security features built into the processor. I opted to go from the Ryzen 3 2200G to the 3200G and they perform the same but the security features in the 3200G are greater than the 2200G

Ok Shawn well to be honest I am not that savvy enough to understand all that as I am of the thought that having TPM and a good security suite plus Windows security stuff would cover all that. It is a shame because the CPU is working really well. :(

Sometimes you may encounter a problem on step 11: select a drive to install Windows 11. The drive you selected is refused because the installer detects is as write protected (read-only). This strange situation happened with my new SSD Samsung 870 EVO when I tried to make a clear Windows 11 22000.160 installation; at the same time Macrium Reflect was able to write a previously saved image on this SSD without problem.

How to solve: open Command Prompt (Shift+F10) and launch the Diskpart
Code: 
DISKPART> list disk
(Diskpart shows the list of available disks, for example, you need Disk 0)
DISKPART> select disk 0
DISKPART> attributes disk clear readonly
Then return to previous Installer screen and select Custom install again, this should solve the problem (if not, use Diskpart to delete all volumes and partitions; you can also create a new partition, volume and use a quick format to be sure that drive is no longer write protected). Then exit Diskpart, close command prompt and continue the installation.

The alt+f4 trick to get to enter a local account does not seem to work if trying to install W11 Home in Hyper-V as a Hyper-V vm does not respond to alt+f4 on my laptop.


So I tried going through oobe again natively rather than in vm but alt+f4 still did not work.

I tried shift+altf4 as well.

I know it is not keyboard drivers as I am using it ok on oobe.

I dont think you need any trick to get to it. It should be visible in the list during installation. It's a bit hidden so scroll down.

@Brink, @NavyLCDR, I managed to setup as a local account in Hyper-V.

Something has changed as I did not need to disconnect from internet (I reread tutorial and saw that was no needed if you connect to internet), and after I clicked next on the "oops something went wrong message", it jumped straight to following screen instead. If you compare it with the screen in tutorial, you will see it is similar but not identical - it has advice re. child accounts.

So the steps are simpler now as far as I can tell.

I also tested installing on Host, and it was the same.

I suggest you try it with latest iso, and test if this change is "universal" and update tutorial as required?

cheers
