Don't install another Windows if you don't meet the requirements

(Before I start, I just want you to know that I put a lot of effort into looking for information, I love doing this, but I spend a lot of time researching, searching for information and writing, I don't use AI like others, I write everything from my heart, so please, I would appreciate your Kudos, please share this blog with other people who like computer science and write a nice comment,  That would help me a lot. Thank you)

Today I'm here to talk about something that has really happened forever and that is that very surely on the internet you have come across a YouTube tutorial where they explain how to install Windows without meeting the requirements, this has really always been on the internet, let's say, you want to have Windows 11 on your PC, but it doesn't meet the requirements,  It doesn't matter because on YouTube a random guy uploaded a video about how to crack Windows 11 without meeting the minimum requirements!

But, this really is bad, VERY BAD, and here's why:

Well, starting with why you won't get Windows updates, although I'll tell you the truth, this doesn't seem to be true, because in the past I installed Windows 11 without meeting the requirements and still had the updates, so... Is it fake?

Well, now if starting with the real thing, one of the things that you are going to experience will be slowness, Microsoft for a reason puts those minimum requirements, I tell you one thing, I explain it to you: The operating system, in this case Windows is programmed to be with a specific hardware, that hardware is the minimum requirements, but if it realizes that that hardware does not exist then it will be slow,  you must understand that, you may have the latest Windows, but while another guy who has his PC with the minimum requirements this Windows is doing wonderfully, ati for not meeting the requirements is going to go like crap, even more so when the operating system is heavy (example: Windows 11). Researching on the internet I found a lot of people complaining to Microsoft because Windows was slow, but sometimes this was because the person did not meet the minimum requirements, and for some reasons, the operating system was going to be slow.

Another thing we might encounter is incompatibility, as it seems that the PC that has a Windows that doesn't meet the requirements could experience incompatibility glitches, causing the device to malfunction. I found a comment on an internet forum where a person said that because he had installed Windows 7 on a PC that did not meet the resources, this caused the sound to be disabled and that once he returned to Windows XP the sound returned. A very strange case, but the truth is that yes, it can happen, maybe it was due to an error in the audio output device, the truth is I don't know, let's continue.

Well, I found those 3 things, but hey, I'll tell you an anecdote:

At the end of 2023 I decided to install Windows 11 on my PC, but my PC is low-resources, in fact it is the same PC with which I write this blog, but I have Windows 10 because I got back, My PC Resources: 

Device Name DESKTOP-CCK2UUR

Intel(R) Celeron(R) CPU N2830 Processor @ 2.16GHz 2.16GHz

Installed RAM 4.00 GB (3.88 GB usable)

Device Identifier 64DAE273-C4E6-4C20-A074-ED8885C116F8

Product ID: 00327-30000-00000-AAOEM

System Type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor

Pen and Touch Touch Touch or inking is not available for this screen

And in fact I made it, my pc was left with Windows 11, I was very excited to try it, but it was extremely slow, I had to disable the transparencies, animations, shadows, etc. In fact I got into the registry to make it faster, I optimized it myself to the maximum, but it was still slow, I lasted with it about 4 months and I was not really impressed, an operating system like Windows 10 but with a different design, the truth is that I went back to Windows 10, I bought a solid disk and it works wonderfully,  but as you can see in my story, this was very slow, I didn't know what to do with it, I switched back to Windows 10 (an operating system which did meet the minimum requirements) and it was fast again, even more so with the solid disk.

Moral of the story: Don't install a Windows on a computer that doesn't meet its minimum requirements... NEVER
