This tutorial will show you how to do a repair install of Windows 11 by performing an in-place upgrade without losing anything.

If you need to repair or create a new recovery partition or having problems with the Windows 11 operating system on your PC, and the usual solutions will not fix it, you can do a repair install of Windows 11 by performing an in-place upgrade without losing anything.

You will keep all accounts, apps, and personal data.

You must be signed in as an administrator to perform a repair install of Windows 11.

You will only be able to perform a repair install of Windows 11 from within Windows 11. You will not be able to perform a repair install at boot or in Safe Mode.

You will need at least 20 GB of free space on the Windows drive to perform an in-place upgrade.


When you perform a repair install (in-place upgrade), the previous version of Windows in the Windows.old folder (up to 10 days after upgrade) will automatically get replaced by the current Windows. It is recommended to create a system image first if you would like to be able to go back to current previous Windows before it gets replaced.

  • Option Two: Repair Install Windows 11 using ISO or USB Installation Media


EXAMPLE: How to perform a Windows 11 In-place upgrade | Microsoft





Option One

Repair Install Windows 11 via Windows Update


This will download and install a repair version of the OS. This operation reinstalls the OS that you have and will not remove any files, settings, or apps.


Fix issues by reinstalling the current version of Windows - Microsoft Support

Learn how to reinstall Windows using Windows Update.

1 Open Settings (Win+I).

2 Click/tap on System on the left side, and click/tap on Recovery on the right side. (see screenshot below)

8 You will now be on your desktop in Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-15.png




Option Two

Repair Install Windows 11 using ISO or USB Installation Media


1 Disable or uninstall any 3rd party AV or security program you have installed first to prevent it from interfering with the repair install of Windows 11. You can enable or reinstall it again after Windows 11 has finished installing.

It may be required to use the removal tool from the AV program developer to fully remove it.


2 If the Windows drive is encrypted by BitLocker, then you will need to either suspend or turn off BitLocker for the Windows drive before doing a repair install. Once installation has finished, you can resume or turn on BitLocker again.

3 Do the step below depending on how you want to install Windows 11.
  • step 4: To Repair Install Windows 11 with an ISO file
  • step 5: To Repair Install Windows 11 with USB Installation Media

The Windows 11 installation media (ISO or USB) must be the same edition, same version, and same or higher build as the currently installed Windows 11.

The Windows 11 installation media (ISO or USB) must be for the same language as your currently installed Windows 11.


4 To Repair Install Windows 11 with an ISO file

A) If you have not already, you will need to download a Windows 11 ISO file.​

B) Mount the ISO file, and go to step 6 below.​

5 To Repair Install Windows 11 with USB Installation Media

This does not have to be a bootable USB.


A) Connect and open the Windows 11 USB, and go to step 6 below. (see screenshot below)​

Repair_install_Windows11-1.png

6 Run the setup.exe file to start Windows 11 Setup. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-2.png

7 If prompted by UAC, click/tap on Yes. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-3.png

8 Windows 11 Setup will now start preparing. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-4.png

9 Click/tap on the Change how Setup downloads updates link. (see screenshot below)

You can check or uncheck (default) I want to help make the installation better depending on what you want. This will send setup info to Microsoft to help improve.


Repair_install_Windows11-5.png

10 Select (dot) Not right now for "Get updates, drivers and optional features". (see screenshot below)

Choosing to "download updates, drivers and optional features" will only add unnecessary overhead during the repair install, and could cause the repair install to stall if there was an issue.

You can check for updates via Windows Update after the repair install has finished to avoid this.


Repair_install_Windows11-6.png

11 Windows 11 Setup will now start getting things ready. (see screenshots below)

Repair_install_Windows11-7.png
Repair_install_Windows11-8.png

12 Click/tap on Accept for the license terms. (see screenshot below)

Repair_install_Windows11-9.png

13 Windows 11 Setup will now check to make sure you're ready to install and have enough space. (see screenshots below)

Repair_install_Windows11-10.png
Repair_install_Windows11-10b.png

14 Click/tap on the Change what to keep link. (see left screenshot below)

After doing step 15, click/tap on Install when ready to start the repair install of Windows 11. (see right screenshot below)


Repair_install_Windows11-11.png
Repair_install_Windows11-12.png

15 Select (dot) Keep personal files and apps, and click/tap on Next. (see left screenshot below)

If you only have Nothing available to select, then the installation media is not the same version or language as what you currently have installed.

When you click/tap on Next, you will go back to step 13. When you get to step 14 again, click/tap on Install when ready to start the repair install of Windows 11. (see right screenshot below)


If wanted, you can close the Windows 11 Setup window at this point to safely cancel the repair install before it starts. It will be too late after this step.


Repair_install_Windows11-13.png
Repair_install_Windows11-12.png

16 Windows 11 Setup will now start the repair install of Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

Your PC will restart several times. This might take a while.


Repair_install_Windows11-14.png

17 When the repair install of Windows 11 has finished, you can dismiss the lock screen and sign in to Windows 11. (see screenshots below)

18 You will now be on your desktop in Windows 11. (see screenshot below)

That's it,

It's true! It's true...
This is from the Windows 11 (22000.xx)install media, (DVD) run from within Windows 10 Home.
I also tested it using the ISO method. The screenshots were the same so... :)

Thanks for the tutorial.
I have some doubts, can you please clarify ?
Does this 'in-place-upgrade' keep ALL the apps and programs that were installed before, including Office etc.,
And does this revert the changes made to the registry in the previous install ?
Thanks and regards

Hello, :-)

A repair install is basically the same as doing an upgrade install.

You will not lose any apps or programs.

Registry setting should remain unchanged as well.

If you modified any system files, those will get restore back to default though.

You could include updates if wanted, but it's just that I find it best to not include them when doing a repair install (in-place upgrade) to avoid any potential issues with the in-place upgrade from updates. Especially if you are doing a repair install because of Windows Update issues.

It's usually best to wait until the repair install has finished, and then manually check for updates instead.

@Brink, I'm wondering whether I should even attempt an in-place repair, given that I successfully installed on my i7-7700 (not on the list - yet) only by switching out the install.wim in an 11 iso for the install.wim from a 10 iso. As has been noted here on elevenforum, that looks like a 10 install right up to the final few screens, and then 11 appears. But mine appeared without any visible presence of MS Defender, and I want that repaired. Should I anticipate that a "real" 11 iso will stop the installation at Checking Your PC?

Hello mate, :-)

I'm afraid an official untampered W11 ISO will still check for compatibility.

If you had to use a workaround to install 11 on an unsupported machine, you can also use one to perform an in-place upgrade. There's no need to tamper with the ISO. Start the upgrade, when you get to Step 10, the screen where you choose how to get updates, delete: C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll before proceeding. The compatibility checks will be skipped.

Thanks, Shawn and Bree. I think I'll try that suggestion, Bree, but I'm not sure how I'll access C:\ without the desktop ... well, I'll see.

Easy-peasy. I'm now at 20% and I'd forgotten that the full-screen installation process wouldn't wipe my taskbar before I'd had the chance to get that pestilential file. Seems to be flying well, and well under the radar. At 60% now. Yay!

Yes, the full screen install process happens much later. Bur even when it does appear you can get the taskbar to reappear by pressing the WinKey. It's still there and fully functional right up to the first reboot.

I'd forgotten that, too.
I'm in, and my Defender is up front and fine. I'll spend a lot of time tomorrow, finding my way around. Exploring. Joy! :party::party:

If you had to use a workaround to install 11 on an unsupported machine, you can also use one to perform an in-place upgrade. There's no need to tamper with the ISO. Start the upgrade, when you get to Step 10, the screen where you choose how to get updates, delete: C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll before proceeding. The compatibility checks will be skipped.

The workaround removes all hardware checks for secure boot, TPM, GPT file system, or sufficient RAM. This applies whether you upgrade from 7, 8 or 10.

OS checks are a seperate issue, upgrading from Windows 7 is an unsupported upgrade path. You will only be allowed to keep user files, plus the upgrade will not get a digital licence. To keep installed apps and be activated through a digital licence you'd need to upgrade to Windows 10 first. The same may well apply to upgrading Windows 8, but I do not have a 64-bit W8 machine I can test that on.

Thx for checking.

There will likely be many end users attempting to upgrade with the above deletion of C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dl

If they are successful and have sluggishness or freezes or other problems an in place upgrade may be performed.

Once they have Windows 11 it seems that they would have to delete C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dl again to have a successful in place upgrade repair 11 to 11 ?

Upgrading to Win11 on unsupported hardware is not something I would recommend, or use myself except for test purposes. While there are no apparent problems at present, I expect there may be further down the line. For my production machines I will only be running Win11 on supported hardware, the rest will stay on Win10.

Yes, the workaround would be required every time an in-place upgrade was attempted.

    unsupported machine: Legacy bios, MBR, TPM 1.2, upgraded from W10 to W11 using W10/W11 hybrid install media workaround. In-place upgrade to 22H2 using ISO and a workaround. Feature Update to 23H2 by manually installing the Enablement Package. In-place upgrade to 24H2 using hybrid 23H2/24H2 install media. Also running Insider Beta, Dev, and Canary builds as a native boot .vhdx.

    My SYSTEM THREE is a Dell Latitude 5410, i7-10610U, 32GB RAM, 512GB NVMe ssd, supported device running Windows 11 Pro (and all my Hyper-V VMs).

    My SYSTEM FOUR is a 2-in-1 convertible Lenovo Yoga 11e 20DA, Celeron N2930, 8GB RAM, 256GB ssd. Unsupported device: currently running Win10 Pro, plus Win11 Pro RTM and Insider Dev, Beta, and RP 24H2 as native boot vhdx.

    My SYSTEM FIVE is a Dell Latitude 3190 2-in-1, Pentium Silver N5030, 8GB RAM, 512GB NVMe ssd, supported device running Windows 11 Pro, plus the Insider Beta, Dev, Canary, and Release Preview builds as a native boot .vhdx.
If you had to use a workaround to install 11 on an unsupported machine, you can also use one to perform an in-place upgrade. There's no need to tamper with the ISO. Start the upgrade, when you get to Step 10, the screen where you choose how to get updates, delete: C:\$WINDOWS.~BT\Sources\appraiserres.dll before proceeding. The compatibility checks will be skipped.

It's not possible for me it's not a "Back" button
