Comment on Can’t upgrade your PC to Windows 11? Buy a new one, is Microsoft’s laughable solution
Trigger2_2000@sh.itjust.works 3 weeks agoI can’t see investing upgrades into HW that old (I know I could, just doesn’t seem like the best use of money in the long run).
Also, my partner’s SW is only available for Windows and I don’t feel like teaching them enough Linux to run Wine under it.

Well that hardware isn’t going to run a supported version of Windows anyway.
2 GB of ram should be enough

That was my original point: it is running Windows 11 right now. A bit slow, but it runs.

Windows 11 requires 4 GB of memory and a newer CPU. There is no way that’s officially supported by Microsoft.
However, somehow I think you know that. Just keep in mind it probably will have issues and updates may not apply. (No security patches potentially)
