Controversy over Windows 11 requirements, artificial and without much meaning to many, continues to hinder the adoption of the latest version of Microsoft’s system by preventing millions of computers, can easily move it around and run apps and games, are updated. No wonder Windows 10 continues to be the “king of the desktop”.

All this officially, because bypassing the hardware requirements has been child’s play since launch. As the situation is overwhelmed, Microsoft itself hacked its own hardware requirements and finally took a pragmatic stance because it cannot control the huge Windows ecosystem. In addition, he is keen to see an increase in system adoption (lower than expected).

Bypass Windows 11 requirements with a single command

Already in the past we have seen tools like Ventoy or Rufus capable of preparation installation media that bypasses the minimum hardware requirements, TPM, UEFI and more. These media are especially suitable for “clean” installations of Windows 11 and are created on official ISO images provided by Microsoft. They work perfectly and keep the device on even though they don’t officially exceed the requirements.

We also know the manual ways to avoid them and now we have another, even easier one. He showed it user in X and consists simply of add a simple command (rather as a parameter) during installation.

All you have to do is run the installation with the /product server parameter. One way to do this is to open a command prompt window, switch to the Windows installation media drive, and run settings/product server to start the process.

Users who have already installed Windows 11 on incompatible hardware through other means and have problems installing dynamic updates also have tools to resolve them. one of them is MediaCreationTool.bat available on GitHub, allowing new feature updates to be installed, even on devices with incompatible hardware.
