The next major iteration of Microsoft's flagship operating system is almost upon us. Windows 11 launches October 5th, as a free upgrade to Windows 10 users, yet with under two weeks to go, there's still plenty of uncertainty over which PCs will officially support the upgrade.

Microsoft has moved the goalposts in recent weeks, and at this very late stage there's now a new-and-improved PC Health Check app designed to let you know if your system can run Windows 11 as intended. Want to know if your machine meets Microsoft's requirements? Download the app and let us know how you fare using the comments facility below.

I can't run the tool, I just get a “Your organisation manages updates on this PC” message.
I presume & neet to run O&O Shutup10 and re-enable a bunch of the things I turned off to make this work.
I'm on 1st Gen Ryzen so I guess not, but after so many changes on the requirements I'm not sure. I'm sure I'll be able to get over it and install W11 anyways
I haven't bothered checking, and have no plans to upgrade to it any time soon if I do at all, but I'm sure that my system is well within the specs supported before too due to it being a 3rd generation Ryzen.

EDIT: I would obviously have to enable the fTPM in the BIOS first though.

I'm on 1st Gen i5 so I'm pretty sure I'm out :D
Yes x 2 but it'll remain as a VM due to dev commitments
