Use this option and download Media Creation Tool if you want to create bootable USB media to perform a clean install on new or existing hardware. To get started you first need a license to install Windows 11 or have a Windows 10 device that qualifies for an upgrade to Windows 11.

To get started, you will first need to have a license to install Windows 11. You can then download and run the media creation tool. For more information on how to use the tool, see the instructions below.

If you are installing Windows 10 on a PC running Windows XP or Windows Vista, or if you need to create installation media to install Windows 10 on a different PC, see Using the tool to create installation media (USB flash drive, DVD, or ISO file) to install Windows 10 on a different PC section below.

Note: Before you install Windows 10, check to make sure your PC meets the system requirements for Windows 10. We also recommend going to the PC manufacturer's website for any additional info about updated drivers and hardware compatibility.

After downloading and installing, the tool will walk you through how to set up Windows 10 on your PC. All Windows 10 editions are available when you select Windows 10,except for Enterprise edition. For more information on Enterprise edition,go to the Volume Licensing Service Center.

If you have Office 2010 or earlier and choose to perform a clean install of Windows 10, you will need to locate your Office product key. For tips on locating your product key, check Find your Office 2010 product key or Enter the product key for your Office 2007 program.

If your PC does not automatically boot to the USB or DVD media, you might have to open a boot menu or change the boot order in your PC's BIOS or UEFI settings. To open a boot menu or change the boot order, you'll typically need to press a key (such as F2, F12, Delete, or Esc) immediately after you turn on your PC. For instructions on accessing the boot menu or changing the boot order for your PC, check the documentation that came with your PC or go to the manufacturer's website. If you do not see the USB or DVD media device listed within the boot options, you may need to reach out to the PC manufacturer for instructions for temporarily disabling Secure Boot in your BIOS settings.

If changing the boot menu or order doesn't work, and your PC immediately boots into the OS you want to replace, it is possible the PC had not fully shut down. To ensure the PC fully shuts down, select the power button on the sign-in screen or on the Start menu and select Shut down.

If you downloaded an ISO file for Windows 10, the file is saved locally at the location you selected. If you have a third-party DVD burning program installed on your computer that you prefer to use for creating the installation DVD, that program might open by going to the location where the file is saved and double-clicking the ISO file, or right-click the ISO file, select Open with and choose your preferred DVD burning software.

If you want to use the Windows Disk Image Burner to create an installation DVD, go to the location where the ISO file is saved. Right-click the ISO file and select Properties. On the General tab, click Change and select Windows Explorer for the program you would like to use to open ISO files and select Apply. Then right-click the ISO file and select Burn disc image.

If you want to install Windows 10 directly from the ISO file without using a DVD or flash drive, you can do so by mounting the ISO file. This will perform an upgrade of your current operating system to Windows 10.

Dropbox was installed before the upgrade to Windows 11. It has run completely fine but with the recent update to dropbox I was told I needed to update to the latest version in order to continue using Dropbox. However, despite my attempts to install the update it never starts.

I have since completely uninstalled Dropbox and downloaded the Full Off-line Installer for Dropbox which is having the same issue and will not start. I have tried compatibility mode, running as administrator. I get as far as UAC prompting me to approve running the app and then nothing. No error codes, no failure messages. Just nothing. I do not have an AV running besides built-in MS stuff and I have tried disabling all of that. Same results.

I am trying to upgrade my Windows 10 PC to Windows 11 as Microsoft asks me to do that from time to time. I downloaded the Windows 11 Installation Assistance but it tells me that this PC can't run this version of Windows 11.

Later, I downloaded the PC Heather Check app and it says my PC is missing TPM. I'm really eager to upgrade, but I'm stuck at this roadblock and not sure how to proceed. Has anyone successfully installed Windows 11 without TPM?

If so, could you please share the steps or any workarounds you used? I would greatly appreciate any suggestion on how to bypass this requirement. I'm open to trying different methods or tools to make this upgrade possible.

It is now 2024 and there are dozens of ways to help you install Windows 11 without TPM and Secure Boot, even for very old PCs. I managed to install Windows 11 on a 10-year old ThinkPad laptop (No TPM & Secure Boot) with the help of this step-by-step guide: -windows-11-without-tpm

However, there are some unofficial ways to install Windows 11 without TPM, but this involves modifying the installation media, which can be risky. For example, future Windows updates may detect this bypass and may cause compatibility or security issues. If you are willing to try, I can provide a rough guide of the steps, but please be aware that doing so may violate Microsoft's terms of use and may have an impact on the security of your system.

Step 2. Modify the ISO file: Using some tools (such as Rufus or other third-party software), you can disable the TPM check when creating the installation USB. Tools such as Rufus provide an option to bypass the TPM check when creating the boot disk.

Again, this method may bring risks, including system stability and security issues. If your PC is mission-critical or data-sensitive, it is recommended to consider upgrading the hardware or using a device that meets the official Windows 11 requirements.

I remember one time, I had a friend who wanted to install windows 11 without tpm 2.0 and secure boot. His situation was similar to yours, his computer did not have TPM 2.0, and he also received an upgrade push from Microsoft.

He first tried to find out if he could enable TPM in the BIOS, but had no luck. Then he considered replacing the hardware, but felt that the cost was a bit high and not worth it. Finally, he decided to use a tool like Win-BootMateto try to create an installation media that bypassed TPM check. The process was a bit complicated, and he was a little worried about what problems he might encounter, such as future updates might be affected.

In the end, he decided to take a risk and followed the online tutorial step by step, and finally installed it successfully. Although the system ran smoothly, he was a little nervous every time he updated, worried that it would be incompatible one day. He later told me that if it was really necessary to upgrade the hardware, or considering long-term stability and security, he might choose to buy a new computer, or at least upgrade the motherboard.

I can tell you about a time I helped a user set up a virtual machine to install windows 11 without tpm 2.0 and secure boot. This user was in a similar situation to you, his computer also failed the TPM 2.0 check, but he was eager to try out the new features of Windows 11. He decided to use a virtual machine to bypass TPM check.

First, we chose VMware Workstation and VirtualBox, both of which are very popular virtual machine software that support most operating systems. To ensure everything goes smoothly, we downloaded the official ISO file of Windows 11.

During the installation process, Windows 11 installed smoothly in the virtual environment because the virtual machine itself simulates the required hardware environment, including TPM. After the installation is completed, the user can start exploring Windows 11, and all new features can be used, just like running in a real environment.

Although the system response speed may not be as fast as on a physical machine, especially when running some resource-intensive applications, but overall, the experience was successful. The user was very satisfied with it because he did not need to change any hardware to experience Windows 11.

Docker Desktop's functionality remains consistent on both WSL and Hyper-V, without a preference for either architecture. Hyper-V and WSL have their own advantages and disadvantages, depending on your specific set up and your planned use case.
