    • Download and install the PC Health Check tool from the official Windows 11 website to verify if your computer meets the compatibility requirements for Windows 11.
    • The tool provides a full report with links to solutions for any compatibility issues.
  • Creating Installation Media:
  • Installation Process:
    • Boot the computer from the USB drive, which may require changing BIOS settings.
    • During setup, you can skip entering a product key if upgrading from a properly activated version of Windows 10 or 7.
    • Select the option for a clean installation, delete existing partitions, and install Windows 11 on unallocated space.
  • Post-Installation Setup:
    • After installation, configure regional settings, keyboard layout, and computer name.
    • Choose to set up a Microsoft account or an offline account.
    • Adjust privacy settings and select backup options for files.
    • Optionally, install Office apps and subscribe to Microsoft 365.
  • Final Steps:
    • Open the Microsoft Store to check for updates and download necessary apps.
