So I have a 8-year old #Windows Win10 desktop that Microsoft states will not support Windows 11. Fine. (gnu.gl)

So I have a 8-year old #Windows Win10 desktop that Microsoft states will not support Windows 11. Fine.

So why does it let me spin up full #Hyperv Windows VM running Win11? Guess I'll turn it into a HyperV host when Win10 goes EOL.

You'll need to Google the current process, but I have at least 8 machines running 11, and I think only two of them support 11 according to Microsoft. Should be a fairly easily solvable problem if you are comfortable installing an OS and maybe tweaking a couple of registry entries or installer files.

Virtual machines bypass some hardware requirements including tpm2.
