Windows 10 end of life could prompt torrent of e-waste
You can use Rufus: https://rufus.ie/en/
To modify the ISO to turn off hardware check and TPM support for Windows 11 to install it on an unsupported PC.
https://github.com/pbatard/rufus/wiki/FAQ#user-content-Help_...
Besides Linux and BSD Unix there is: https://reactos.org/ https://aros.sourceforge.io/ https://www.haiku-os.org/ and https://www.arcanoae.com/arcaos/
I know some third-world nations still use DOS and the BORLAND DOS compilers because people donate old computers to their nations.
With the right OS, old computers are still usable. Please don't throw them away, e-cycle them so they get used by poor nations that cannot afford new PCs.

Ventoy
3. NVMe drives may not gracefully handle sudden disconnections, because USB connections are inherently unreliable interfaces prone to physical disruption and loss of power.
If your drive decides to stop showing up, first try loading up the boot device selection screen in the UEFI, and then insert the drive. It may take several seconds to show up. If trying that a few times doesn’t work, the drive may be stuck in a bad state, and might be recovered with the power cycle technique https://dfarq.homeip.net/fix-dead-ssd/
Always set up automatic backups if you actually have non-replaceable data on the drive. They can and will just suddenly die forever with loss of all data, just like thumb drives. You have been warned.
All that said, there are generally less issues if you are simply putting ventoy on it to install from a loaded iso.
I have a dual raid1 sata enclosure that I use to boot a windows to go install created with Rufus (https://github.com/pbatard/rufus), which makes testing and benchmarking so much nicer to deal with. I’ve even stuck games on it, and other than relative filesystem slowness it works pretty great.

Time to move my desktop to Linux I guess
You can use Rufus to install Win 11 on PCs that don't officially support it. I've done it before (my PC doesn't have a TPM 2 chip).
