Windows 11 Will Have New Hardware Requirements

The Windows 11 operating system, which is scheduled to be released next month, has hardware requirements that prevent it from being installed on older devices. While there is a loophole that allows users to install Windows 11 older systems, Microsoft has indicated that users who choose to run Windows 11 on unsupported devices will not receive updates through Windows Update. Windows 11 is scheduled to begin rolling out in early October; Microsoft expects the rollout to continue through mid-2022.
