not even time for Microsoft to release the latest Build i. e. the 24H2 of Windows 11 which thanks to daring adventures as you will see we managed to make it work even on PCs that do not meet the requirements as if this were not enough this Build can be installed without the need to format the computer and therefore allowing you to keep all your programs intact but above all all your data and it works both on Windows 11 of course and also on Windows 10 what more could you want so fasten your seatbelts because if you feel ready let's start this morning I was working on a server of a client who had to update his operating system which has absolutely nothing to do with Windows 1124 H2 However it was about installing a system on a server which did not have the requirements and the client Unfortunately he wanted to I really wanted to have the latest version so I did an operation that is usually done on servers and at that moment I had a flash of genius I said.
Look, this thing also works on Windows 11 24 hours a day. I couldn't believe it but I had to finish that job so I wrote on a forum via telephone and a couple of colleagues confirmed that they had carried out the test and that this procedure actually worked and so I rushed to the laboratory as soon as I finished and tried it on three machines, two of which were not they had the requirements and one like the system that we will use today even used Windows 10 and the operation was perfectly successful and therefore I am here to present it to you Also because I really couldn't wait but before we start we must not forget our apotropaic ritual to calm the divinities of the tube disclaimer the contents of this video are exposed for purely informative and educational purposes let's move on before starting a necessary clarification to carry out these operations you will need a nice pen drive so keep it aside because we will need it very soon but in the meantime let's open our browser on this machine I don't have Chrome so we'll go with Microsoft EDGE and inside we'll type download Iso Windows 11 we'll carry out our search and we'll refer to the Microsoft domain here www. microsoft.
com in the entry that says Download Windows 11 so let's go to this page and go down a little further down where it tells us to create the installation media for Windows 11. Once we get here, click on the Download Now button and we will see that our media Creation tool is downloaded onto our device. At this point, we click on Open.
Acc file we allow changes to be made to our system and we will be able to close the browser page that we no longer need it's time Now instead of inserting our pen drive That's it we are asked to accept the license terms so we click on the button accept We await the completion of the preliminary operations Then we can leave In fact I advise you to leave this item checked or use the recommended options for this PC we click on the next button as you can see the minimum size of the pen drive to use is 8 GB we select USB Flash drive and click again on the forward button our pen drive that we have just connected is detected, we click on forward and wait a few minutes for the operation to finish Ok I ate the whole banana but since it seemed bad to show you the peel I took another one but only for shape I only ate one I swear As you can see our USB drive is ready and at this point we just need to click on the end button to proceed with the operations that interest us very well our USB drive is ready at this point what we have to do is go here below to open our File Explorer and take us right to the USB drive that we have just created if you remember mine had the letter F and here is the drive prepared directly by mother Microsoft with all the files needed to carry out an installation of Windows 1124 H2 Normally we would just need to click on this file called setup to launch the installation or rather the over-installation of Windows 11 on Windows 10 without the need to format the PC However, this machine is not supported so let's see what it happens if we try to carry out the PC integrity check we can type it directly here Here it is PC integrity check this with the little heart tells us if our PC is compatible with the installation is fine Not of the 24 H2 But even of Windows 11 itself if we click In fact on the Check button now the checks will be carried out and as expected we are told that this PC does not currently meet the system requirements of Windows 11 so not only can we not install I repeat the 24 H2 but theoretically we cannot even install Windows 11 on this PC we close our integrity check and at this point we return to our installation window because here we will have to do a very particular operation we should In fact go back to the pen drive that we have just prepared and inside it move to this folder called sources, double click to open it and from inside we will have to implement a mandrac that we learned in a video from a few days ago in case you missed it I'll leave it linked here at the top for the moment you just need to know that this is what we need to bring us here at the top of the address bar click inside any empty point and instead of F2 back sources simply type CMD, press enter and this will allow us to open a command shell or a Dos prompt already inside our pen drive under folder S and at this point we will have to give a very particular command, very particular because it is a command usually intended for updating the servers As I explained to you at the beginning of the video The command is this setup prep space back product server space But why on our computer we are going to launch a command usually intended for servers because this command, put in very simple words, allows, first of all, an installation that is almost completely unattended, that is, not supervised by the user, which in short requires very little interaction on our part but above all much more streamlined and in this case which skips a series of checks including that relating to the minimum requirements to install both Windows 11 and Windows 11 24 H2. In this case we then press enter. We are asked to accept with the yes button that the appropriate changes are made to our device.
After that we will be asked to install Windows Server, don't worry, the computer thinks that we are installing a server version but in reality we are installing a very banal 24/7 version, in this case on Windows 10 we click on the next button to continue. We wait a few minutes or a few seconds, it depends on the case. that some operations are carried out to search for available updates plus the usual esoteric operations reserved for Microsoft at this point we will be able to accept the license conditions choose what is very important to keep If we want the files, the settings and all our apps otherwise we can choose to keep only the personal files or nothing and then do a clean installation losing.
I recommend in that case all of our contents but if we want to save everything we will just need to keep the first item checked and click on the forward button we are asked to wait a few minutes what which we will do patiently Here we are everything is ready for our installation at this point we click on the Install button and wait for the end of this operation which could be quite long and here we are done this time I finished the banana Sorry I'm Windows 11 24 H2 is installed on our system you don't believe it let's go and see let's go and type Win R we write winver we press enter and here we have Microsoft Windows version 24 H2 installed on a machine not even supported by Windows 11 starting from a Windows 10 and above all keeping our files but they will have been kept these files to find out let's go and check the Download folder where the two files that I downloaded for installation and to check compatibility with Windows 11 should be present so I would say exam passed as I said at the beginning I tried this method only on a handful of machines. Also because frankly I couldn't wait to present it to you, of course it is a method that has absolutely no contraindications, we use only and exclusively tools provided directly by Microsoft. And in any case we will have the opportunity to carry out all the tests in the Community in the chat and of course also in the comments.
So please let me know your impressions and experiences on the matter. I remind you that I'll also leave you the command To use in the description of this video and so if you want you can make a copy paste directly from the command that I leave you below But let's get to the thanks of the day because today I have to thank Dr Andrea Militello oino 2 Giovanni Iazzetta Giovanni menegaldo Daniele Di Stefano Fulvio cappellatti and Daniele rec Cecconi who have subscribed or renewed their subscription to the Gentlemen's Community and therefore I willingly give you the Welcome or the well remained on board but A special thanks is what I must address to Dark Player 84 tvl etc.
