We just made updates to the Windows 11 PC Health Check App. Your i7 processor from 2011 might have more than enough power, but it may not support all the necessary modern features, for instance. For one, not every processor that meets the specs above is actually compatible, and Microsoft had to put a list together. That processor requirement is only slightly more than Windows 10, except for the lockout on 32-bit CPUs.īut other requirements are heftier. A 1 gigahertz (GHz) or faster with 2 or more cores 64-bit processor isn’t a steep hill to climb, nor is 4 GBs of RAM and 64 GBs of storage. Windows 11 will have some pretty low requirements and some pretty steep requirements. To start, Microsoft says the tool is just for Windows insiders, but anyone can download the updated tool from a direct link. If you need to change a setting in your BIOS, the app will indicate that, which is a helpful addition. Update, 8/27/21: As promised, Microsoft brought back the PC Health Check app, and now it includes more information.
DOWS 8 COMPATIBILITY CHECKER UPDATE
We’ll update this post if and when the tool returns.

Update, 8/1/21: After publishing this article, Microsoft decided to ‘temporarily remove its PC Health Check app. Good news, now the update checker tool will give you a clearer reason, and you may an easy fix. If you’re excited for Windows 11, you may have already downloaded Microsoft’s compatibility checker app dubbed “ PC Health Check” only to get a hard “no” with no clear reason why. After pulling the app, Microsoft brought back PC health check.
