Are you ready to upgrade to Windows 11 but finding Microsoft’s restrictions to be a major roadblock? Microsoft’s latest operating system comes with stringent hardware and security requirements that may leave older PCs out of the loop. Additionally, setting up a local account during a Windows 11 installation has become nearly impossible due to Microsoft’s overshadowing push towards Microsoft accounts. So, how can you navigate this and tailor your Windows 11 installation to fit your needs?
Discover how to upgrade your ‘incompatible’ Windows 10 PC to Windows 11.
Enter Rufus, a practical and free Windows installation tool. Rufus specializes in running or installing Windows from a USB drive, allowing you to bypass many of Microsoft’s strict requirements. By using Rufus, you can navigate around hardware constraints, eliminate the need for a Microsoft account, and select the type of account you prefer.
Whether you are upgrading your existing Windows 10 PC or installing Windows 11 from scratch, Rufus can help you avoid hardware restrictions. With an upgrade, your account type will align with what you set up in Windows 10, whereas a fresh install using Rufus can grant you the local account option that Microsoft does not readily offer.
