Here are all the ways to fix the ‘This PC doesn’t currently meet all the system requirements for Windows 11’ error message on the PC health check app.
Ensure Your PC Meets The Requirements
Firstly, you should ensure that your PC meets the requirements of Windows 11. Microsoft has set a certain set of system requirements that will ensure whether you can install Windows 11 or not. Given below is a list of all the system requirements that your PC must meet to install Windows 11-

You can check on the official website of your motherboard for how you can enable TPM 2.0 or UEFI for your motherboard version.
Changing Registry Settings
If you are on an unsupported system ( without TPM 2.0 or UEFI), and you still want to install Windows 11, you will have to do this by making certain registry tweaks. To do so, follow the steps given below-
- In the Start Menu, search for Registry Editor and click on it to open it.
- In the Registry Editor, head to the following address-
- HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup
- On the left sidebar, select MoSetup. Right-click on it, and then click on New, and then DWORD (32-bit) Value.
- Name the new key-value you created as AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU.Double-click the new key you created, change its value from 0 to 1, and click OK to save the changes.
This will fix the error message, and you should now be able to install Windows 11 officially.
