How to upgrade your Windows 10 to Windows 11 for FREE (using your existing Windows 10 license) keeping your data. This process is Effortless, even on unsupported PCs!

This tutorial covers everything from downloading the Windows 11 ISO from the official Microsoft website, to installation, including the necessary parameters to add the Windows Setup utility to complete the installation on unsupported hardware.

With Microsoft Windows 10 becoming End of Life (Eol) in October 2025, and will no longer receive updates, now is a good time to look at upgrading your Microsoft Windows 10 to Windows 11.

Note, it's not recommended to install Windows 11 on unsupported hardware, the choice is of course yours. Future updates released by Microsoft may break Windows 11 installations on unsupported hardware! You have been warned.
