This is surprising news considering that Microsoft has spent three years continuously recommending users to upgrade to Windows 11. This is especially noteworthy as the end of support for Windows 10 is approaching, on October 14, 2025.
If you've used the 'trick' of installing Windows 11 on an incompatible PC, you should go back to Windows 10.
According to LaptopMag , things took a turn last week when Microsoft updated its official support page with the following information: "If you installed Windows 11 on a device that doesn't meet the Windows 11 system requirements, we recommend you roll back to Windows 10 immediately."
Microsoft supports Windows 10 users?
Despite the statement, this doesn’t mean Microsoft is endorsing users who are running an operating system it’s about to stop supporting. Instead, the company is trying to clamp down on users who upgraded to Windows 11 without meeting the minimum hardware requirements but used tricks to install the more demanding operating system.
The most controversial hardware requirement for Windows 11 is that users must own a PC or laptop equipped with a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) 2.0 chip - a security layer that encrypts and stores sensitive data. While this feature has become common on modern motherboards and processors, it was not standardized when Windows 11 launched on October 5, 2021, and has led to much controversy.
Many users have tried to bypass this requirement using third-party tools. Microsoft even provided an official way to bypass these requirements in a support article in September 2021. However, in early February of this year, the company withdrew the guidance and began blocking the installation of support tools, such as Flyby11, to prevent "bypassing" Windows 11's TPM 2.0 hardware requirement.
