P3d Minimum Requirements

[Arabella Kochanski]

Tohelp signatories understand what they need to do to meet the minimum requirements, we have produced a guide to the minimum requirements indicators in the Reporting Framework. This provides guidance for signatories to identify and report on those indicators.

Our recent signatory consultations and engagements, including the PRI in a Changing World consultation, have highlighted how important signatory accountability is to our mission and the value it brings.

The commitment we made in 2020 to strengthen our accountability mechanisms so that they deliver on our mission and cater to signatories remains but will now take a broader approach to more effectively achieve their purpose.

We look forward to providing more information on this work in the future and are confident that the existing minimum requirements deliver appropriate accountability across our signatory base and remain important considerations for investors in the meantime.

We are taking a more flexible approach to reporting this year and as such, reporting will be voluntary for a larger group of investor signatories. The minimum requirements continue to apply, however, and we will assess the information of all signatories that report in 2024 to identify those that do not meet the minimum requirements.

When the PRI consulted signatories on strengthening signatory accountability in September 2017, they showed strong signatory support for using reporting and assessment data to delist signatories whose progress in implementing the Principles is not sufficient. View an overview of the consultation responses (PDF).

The current minimum requirements and indicators were selected because they are applicable to all types of signatories. Feedback also indicated that these were achievable within the two-year engagement period and an appropriate place to start for newer and less advanced signatories. The process is intended to help signatories progress through use of PRI resources and networks.

The PRI informs all signatories that do not meet the minimum requirements confidentially. Following this, an engagement plan is agreed for the two-year period and signatories will be supported through the process with the appropriate resources.

To meet the oversight requirement, signatories must have senior-level oversight and accountability for responsible investment implementation. Individuals with oversight roles are those with management or governance responsibility for ensuring that the organisation implements its policies and achieves its objectives and targets in relation to responsible investment. Senior-level roles include board trustees, executive-level staff, investment committees, heads of department and equivalent.

Signatories that have been delisted and wish to relist will be required to report in the next available reporting cycle and provide evidence that they meet the minimum requirements in place at that time. The grace year will not apply to relisting signatories.

Signatories that revert to not meeting the minimum requirements (including after any relisting) will be required to address the requirements in a one-year timeline. If the requirements have changed in the interim period, the usual two-year period will apply.

Our current minimum requirements play an important role, ensuring that a baseline level of responsible investment is achieved across our investor signatory base, and these will remain in place for 2024.

Beyond 2024, we will continue to determine the most effective way to strengthen our accountability mechanisms so that they deliver on our mission and cater to signatories and in parallel to our Progression Pathways co-design work, we will set up a workstream to ensure that we embed accountability mechanisms within these.

Windows 11 is designed to bring you closer to what you love and is releasing at a time when the PC is playing an even more central role in the way we connect, create and play. When we made the decision on where to set the minimum system requirements for Window 11, we focused on three principles to guide our thinking to help ensure a great user experience:

If you are interested in understanding more about our minimum system requirements and how these principles helped guide our decision-making, please see this blog that provides a more detailed explanation of our approach.

Processors/CPUs (Central Processing Units): 1 Ghz or faster with 2 or more cores and appearing on our list of approved CPUs. The processor in your PC will be a main determining factor for running Windows 11. The clock speed (the 1 Ghz or faster requirement) and number of cores (2 or more) are inherent to the processor design as it was manufactured and are not considered upgradable components.

System Firmware: UEFI (for Unified Extensible Firmware Interface, a modern version of the PC BIOS) and Secure Boot capable. If your device does not meet the minimum requirements because it is not Secure Boot capable, you may want to read this article to see if there are steps you can take to enable this. Secure Boot can only be enabled with UEFI and this article helps you understand potential options to change settings to make this possible.

TPM: Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.0. If your device does not meet the minimum requirements because of TPM, you may want to read this article to see if there are steps you can take to remediate this.

Windows Version for Upgrade: Your device must be running Windows 10, version 2004 or later, to upgrade through Windows Update. Free updates are available through Windows Update in Settings > Update and Security.

For Windows 10 Pro, Education, and Enterprise, S mode is no longer available in Windows 11. Users who want to upgrade to Windows 11 will need to switch out of S mode and will not have an option to switch back again. Windows 10 Home can upgrade to Windows 11 Home in S mode without needing to switch out of S mode.

On the page that appears in the Microsoft Store (Switch out of S mode or a similar page), select the Get button. After you confirm this action, you'll be able to install apps from outside the Microsoft Store.

We know that some customers will want an easy-to-use process for determining if their PC meets the minimum system requirements for Windows 11 and is eligible for the upgrade. To help with this, we are providing the PC Health Check app for Windows 10 PCs. In addition to diagnostic checks, there is a push-button simple way to check upgrade eligibility for Windows 11. Once Windows 11 is released, Windows Update will also offer a way to assess upgrade eligibility. You will be able to access this from Settings > Update & Security. These options are designed for customer PCs that are not managed by an IT administrator. If your PC is managed by an IT administrator, you should check with them on options for assessing eligibility and upgrading to Windows 11.

For those who ultimately are not able to upgrade their existing PC to Windows 11 due to device ineligibility and are not ready to transition to a new device, Windows 10 remains the right choice. Windows 10 will still be supported through October 14, 2025, and we recently announced that the next feature update to Windows 10 is coming later this year.

What would be the minimum storage space required to run discourse? I understand that its based on user activity in the server. But do you have an idea how much a small community might require in the beginning stages?

I'm trying to upgrade my old PC to Windows 11, but I'm encountering a problem. The error message says, "This PC doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11." Despite having upgraded the hardware over the years, including adding more RAM and storage, the issue persists. I've checked that the processor should be compatible and have enabled both Secure Boot and TPM 2.0 in the BIOS. Despite these efforts, I still can't proceed with the installation. I'm looking for advice on how to identify and fix whatever is causing this incompatibility, so I can successfully upgrade my PC to Windows 11. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There is actually a way to bypass the minimum requirements of Windows 11, I use the WinBootMats tool myself and it works perfectly to bypass all the restrictions, including TPM, Secure Boot, CPU, and so on.

PS: You can first download and run Microsoft's PC Health Check tool (PC Health Check). This tool will detail the reasons for not meeting the "This PC does not meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11".

Actually, solving the problem "This PC doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11" is a bit more complicated. You should make sure that TPM is enabled and set to version 2.0 in the BIOS, and make sure that Secure Boot is enabled correctly, and sometimes you need to set the boot mode to UEFI mode instead of the traditional BIOS mode.

In addition, Windows 11 requires the system disk to be GPT partition style instead of traditional MBR, you can use disk management tools or third-party tools to convert MBR to GPT. please note that data may be lost during the conversion process, so please backup first.

One way I know of to bypass Windows 11 requirement restrictions is to modify the registry. It is possible to bypass some of the checks during the installation process by modifying the registry. This method is risky, so please proceed with caution.

By modifying the registry with the above steps, you can bypass some of the checks and solve the problem of "This PC doesn't meet the minimum requirements for Windows 11". However, please note that this method involves some risks, so please proceed with caution. If you have any other questions, please feel free to contact us.

Honestly, Microsoft, you could have done a lot better. You could have optimized the user experience by providing more detailed error messages so that users could resolve issues more easily. This would not only improve the intelligence of the system, but also reduce user confusion and frustration.
