So I decided to download the bog standard Win11 24H2 ISO install disk from Microsoft and try and install it in a VirtualBox VM on my Win10 22H2 system. Turns out it installs and configures and runs just fine, just like Win11 23H2 did. My CPU has SSE4.2 and TPM 2.0 is emulated by VirtualBox. I had an extra Win11 pro activation code available, so I activated my Win11 pro 24H2 setup in VirtualBox and it activated and runs just fine (just a bit slow).
So on my desktop Win10 pro I now have Ubuntu Linux 22.04, Win11 pro 23H2, and Win11 pro 24H2 VirtualBox VMs all setup and running just fine. No hardware overrides required, no install tweaks used, except I did the tweak to install 24H2 using only a local account, no Microsoft account login.
