    Windows 11 Upgrade tool that bypasses Microsoft´s requirements

  • Interesting. If I understand correctly, the bypass is https://github.com/coofcookie/Windows11Upgrade/blob/1.0.0/Wi... which appears to be a copy of https://github.com/AveYo/MediaCreationTool.bat/blob/main/MCT... which appears to be intentionally cryptic.

    It appears to set HKLM\SYSTEM\Setup\MoSetup\AllowUpgradesWithUnsupportedTPMOrCPU=1 which is mentioned by Microsoft in https://support.microsoft.com/windows/ways-to-install-window... so it may be a reasonable option.

    However, I don't understand what the rest of the script is doing and would be hesitant to run this on my systems. Could someone who understands the trick explain what it's doing?

  • > No doubt MS will have their subsidiary Github remove coofcookie's Windows11Upgradetool and soon it will only be available for pirate users.

    Extreme doubt really considering they haven't even removed MAS https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts after nearly 2 years.
