📎 AI Summary:
The thread discusses the idea of copying Windows 10 modules into a Windows 11 distribution, with some participants questioning whether this is a good approach. Contributors express skepticism, emphasizing that such hybrid systems may not be genuine Windows 11 and could cause hardware compatibility issues, especially with newer security requirements like TPM 2.0, which might restrict older hardware from upgrading or running Windows 11 properly. The overall sentiment suggests concern about potential hardware limitations and the implications for users and organizations.

Not really sure on that point. Just posted it as it seemed an interesting idea. Would be cool if it worked . I am still on 10 .

Not a good idea since 11 will just be built on 10 to begin with. I would hold off with the doom and gloom about the system requirements though. We have to find out what the finalized minimum requirements are, as I doubt they will really limit the silicon for security reasons - I could be wrong though. The "rules" could merely be "guidelines" for now. Surely if a system could run it and does have TPM 2 they would be crazy not to let it run on that CPU. Its not immediately clear if these are rules requested of OEMs to use 8th gen Intel or over. It could still "work" with older hardware, but we don't know if the soft limit is really going to be enforced until there are "clarifying statements"?
