Windows 11 is visible this fall!What are your PC conditions that can be upgraded for free?

Windows 11 can be seen

　On June 24 (local time), Windows 11 was announced.Of course, the successor OS of Windows 10 is officially scheduled around the fall of 2021.In this series, we will use Windows 11 Insider Preview to introduce where Windows 10 has changed.First of all, I will introduce a PC that can use Windows 11.

　In the first place, Windows 10 should have appeared in 2015 as the last Windows, but what is it?In fact, it does not mean that a new OS is released as in the past and asked to buy it again.Once the conditions are full, if you are currently installing Windows 10, you can upgrade to Windows 11 for free.As for the content, it feels like a large update of Windows 10, but it is probably a strategy that Microsoft wants to refresh to the image that it has evolved greatly here.

　However, this condition requires a little attention.The CPU is 2 or more, 1 GHz or more, memory is 4GB or more, and storage is 64GB or more.The system firmware requires a secure boot -compatible UEFI, and BIOS does not support.Basically, if Windows 10 is currently working, there will be no problem.

　What is likely to be a neck is the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) version 2.The point that 0 is required.Tpm 2.0 is a module used for encryption functions.It is used in Bitlocker, which encrypts storage as a theft measure.Tpm 2.If 0 is not installed, you will not be able to upgrade to Windows 11.

　That said, on the Internet, we are looking for workarounds actively, and for countries that cannot use the encryption function TPM 2.It seems that there is room to install even if there is no 0, so it seems that the installation range may be expanded in the future.

　By the way, in this series, Windows 11 Insider Preview is installed on the tablet PC "Surface Pro 5" released in 2017 and the virtual OS software "VirtualBox" and the screen is captured.

"PC normal check" tool that was released before

　In order to diagnose whether the PC you are using can upgrade to Windows 11 for free, the "PC normal check" tools were released.However, Microsoft interrupted the tools because the reason was not displayed in detail when the NG was determined.Currently, it is displayed as "prepared".I want to wait for it to be re -released soon.

Windows 11 system minimum requirements on Microsoft's website

　If you are thinking of buying a PC now, you should definitely check the minimum requirements of the system.I'm worried that the tools are not available, but in light of the requirements and specifications, choose a PC that can be upgraded to Windows 11 anyway.
