can i keep my windows 11 install now without reinstalling on launch?

With Windows 10 you could do that. Never saw how it worked exactly, but there was an option for moving you from a certain milestone insider update channel to the Semi Annual Channel (RTM, basically) once it was released to the masses.

EDIT: Yeah, first you need to move to Beta/Release Preview Channel (so do that now before more updates for Dev arrive). Then you have to check the section "Stop receiving preview builds". The option will be available once you're in Beta/Release Preview.

Hi,
Not win-11 but took most of the day to get a old m-series gateway laptop core 2 duo 3gb memory from 2009 from 1909x86 to 21h1x86 lol
Windows update failed so I had to mount each build and make a system image after each one so I didn't have to start over if it failed

Couldn't skip a build either I tried and it failed lol
64 bit is way too bloated is why it's x86 only good thing is ssd.

If that doesn't work and since there's no beta ISO available to my knowledge

The 22000.100 beta is available in ISO form. To my knowledge, a new update has not been released since. So you need only find a download of it.

Hmm I'll have to see once my WiN10 SSD is done then I'll install 11 on my other

Can't find it anywhere, apart from the odd sdk site. Any hints?

I'm not seeing any lag moving the CPUZ window around the screen. Tried both the 32bit and 64 bit versions. Might be a driver issue.

Forum policies restrict discussion of such. You'll just have to do some deep digging. Try the following search in your favorite search engine(DuckDuckGo is good): "windows 11" "22000.100" iso

Eh I give up. I'm sticking with Windows 10 and 11. Did the same thing as I installed windows 10. Once tried to boot to 7 it did the recovery process crap

When you partition the drive you're installing 7 to, are you remembering to reset the MBR and set the partition to active? GPT drives don't require these steps..

Hi,
It wouldn't keep happening if 7 had it's own boot loader.
Remove 7 while installing 10 or 11 it's been said many times.

What I've learned with Windows 10, is that they are hitting storage way to hard. I consider a fast SSD as the absolute minimum.

Is Windows 11 the same?

I'm on windows 11, using a crucial 2.5" 500gb ssd to boot. Windows boots from button to login in less than ten seconds.

I am asking about a HDD installation, not SSD. I know that on a good SSD Windows 10 boots fast and in desktop is pretty smooth. But from my experience with Windows 10 on a HDD, it's a nightmare. So I was wondering if something changed with Windows 11, or if it is the same with Windows 10.

Has anyone installed and worked Windows 11 on a HDD?

Yes I just installed on a laptop based IDE Drive. Amazingly once everything is set and loaded runs fine

Cheers for your help, mate, but this is was a fiasco.
I assumed Win 11 Beta 22000 would require TPM 2.0 which my motherboard has, so I enabled it. (disconnected all the other drives except the NVMe, obviously.)
Booted to pendrive for which I had used Rufus which used EUFI:NTFS and the same old blue screen error came up that I have seen before when trying to boot the insiders version of Win 11 (currently installed over Win 10).
Rufus advises disabling Secure Boot when using UEFI:NTFS by the way.
I then disabled TPM and miraculously arrived at the install stage, but was then advised that the PC does not meet the requirements, blah, blah, clearly because TPM is disabled.
EDIT
In the end I used the registry hack at the install window to bypass the TPM check and the install succeeded.

Huh, you never mentioned a HDD in your post I replied to, only a SSD being the minimum. Just get a 2.5" SSD, you even said a SSD is minimum.
