Really? I haven't had any problems, even with computers that don't meet the official hardware requirements.
Download the Win11 Pro ISO, extract it to a USB drive and then execute the command below from it for a totally automated install that bypasses all the BS.
.\setup.exe /product server /auto upgrade /EULA accept /migratedrivers all /ShowOOBE none /Compat IgnoreWarning /Telemetry Disable
You're welcome!
PS: I know it says "server" but when upgrading a desktop machine, desktop is what you will get --- minus a lot of BS.
I believe you that that way works today, but once knowledge of it starts to spread, I expect Microsoft to break it, just like they previously broke Shift+F10 "oobe\bypassnro" and "start ms-cxh:localonly".
It has worked all along and MS can't break it because I have the ISO that it works with.
It's unlikely it can be broken without totally abandoning the server market and disrupting a lot of existing installations --- which would be a marketing disaster.
Thats exactly my point, they will keep closing loopholes but they will never truly stop people doing it without removing local accounts completely, which they cant do.
