I always think ER is an Americanism - AE being the British equivalent - ER to me indicates the Queen
Nice little clue though ( if I'm right  )

You are, it is, and thank you.
ER is an Americanism, mainly (entirely?) since the TV series of the same name. But for the global audience that is CodeProject... 
YAUOM.

Is that when you scribble on the back of an envelope, to see if the ink still comes out?

There you go. I also can live without Weleven. And without Wten, without Weight...

Yep, the brand new company PC I got just over a year ago "can't run Windows 11".
Of course, it would be too much to ask for the app to explain why it can't run it. Just a generic "you can't run this" message should be enough for anyone.

I dare hope, for now, it's the state of the alpha preview and more platform support will be available on official release!

Same here - my Surface Go 2 "can't run it" despite Sysinfo telling me that it meets or exceeds the minimum specs.
I suspect the tool is buggy, or just plain stupid.

After digging around in the BIOS, I finally managed to enable the TPM and SecureBoot, and the tool now says I'm OK to run W11.
How any non-technical person is supposed to do that, I have no idea.

I couldn't find anything in the BIOS, but running tpm.msc it says the chip is ready for use. But the Windows 11 tool says my system is not compatible.
|

Same here. It really would be helpful if the tool told you which item(s) was the problem.

Seems that most new MOBOs have a connector on the MOBO for the TPM module.
I did a rebuild a few months ago and found the TPM module for mine, inexpensive as compared to new MOBO.
The less you need, the more you have.

I doubt this. TPM 2.0 chips have been shipping in PCs for about three years now. Finding a TPM 1.1 chip is nearly impossible. Unfortunately many PC makers are still shortchanging security by not turning on the security hardware they're selling. Likewise, the other requirements aren't an issue either unless you're really cheap.

TPM security chip.
I did not even know this was a thing until I read the Windows 11 hate articles yesterday on various tech forums.
My knee jerk reaction to this is: what a great way to force people to buy new computers (with the TPM chip, of course).
I see how-to articles on bypassing the TPM chip, but honestly, how many "regular" users will do that...zero.

TPM has been around for at least a decade. I was recently poking around a Lenovo ThinkPad X300, ca 2008, and it has one.
