    I bought windows 11 to install on a laptop with windows 10 that had collapsed. I could not install win 11 on it since it was not possible. The seller told me about the possibility but I think he should have checked the model to find out if it was possible or not! Now I cannot install it and cannot return it.

    Depending on your motherboards onboard wifi capabilities, be sure you have an Ethernet cable ready. You wont be able to fully install windows 11 without it. After the installation be sure to update your windows 11 wifi drivers.

    I hate this OS. I have two programs that I need that only work on Windows, and for that reason I have to run it, but I never use it for anything else. Windows keeps changing my default setting every time it gets an OS update, and worse, I've started seeing ads in various places. This is irritating in the extreme, and I expect better for a piece of software that is this expensive. If you have to run windows and have the means, run Windows 7 instead. If you are lucky enough to not need Windows, then run Linux instead.

    I bought this but was not told it would not work on my computer! It would have been nice to know this in advance! Because when I took it back I was told because the wrapper was removed Best Buy would not take it back and return my money. That’s $89.00 wasted.

    Just because the workaround needed when installing on a new computer. It must have wifi . Great videos on youbtube. Basicly hit ctl f10 or in my case ctl,fn,f10 then type in. OOBE\BYPASSNRO i also had to click on the propmt with my mouse before i could type. Microsoft keeps making making it harder and harder on purposes ,hence the 2 stars.

    I asked the salesperson if this would work with my laptop explaining how old it was and that it didn’t have any updates. They said it would work and it didn’t. I’m out $150.

    Windows is windows. My problem with this product is I was building a new pc and bought the usb drive for ease. However it won't let you install without internet and my wifi drivers had not been installed yet creating an incredibly irritating process of not being able to install drivers before windows and not being able to install windows without the drivers.

    This item did not install on my ASUS LAPTOP. There was absolutely no help on the MICROSOFT WEBSITE to solve my problem.
