Rather than go through my customizations all over again, I restored the image of Windows 11 Pro I had created as backup.Īs for the Windows 11 UI, StartAllBack is one alternative.īut my point is that upgrading on unsupported hardware is still a thing. Yesterday (October 18) I created a fresh drive image of Windows 11 Pro OS partition, then restored Windows 10 Pro to that partition, and ran my upgrade method on it again using the install.wim file from a freshly downloaded Windows 11 ISO. So there may be some more life in this experiment after all. I ran an offline Edge installer and this re-installed/fixed it. The only failure I saw so far was that the Edge browser was now broken (it had been OK previously). (The “Reset” took account of the Patch Tuesday updates – no further update occurred when I connected online again.) I can now see the Windows Security settings, the Settings app does not lock up and more Settings app windows are now visible, and program installers do not cause network connection failure. After this “Reset” completed W11 looked in much better shape. Before finally abandoning this experiment I decided to perform an offline W11 “Reset” (I could still reach the Reset window in the Settings app).
