Plenty of time to fix and test stuff though. Along with updates to apps that few users have asked for, Microsoft warned of continuing issues with the new Start Menu and Taskbar and an ongoing bug check issue for Surface Pro X devices. The mega-corp also released build 22000.194 to its Beta Channel as well as commercial PCs in the Release Preview Channel. In the meantime, as well as the whizzy new Photos app, with improvements to editing and viewing, the Dev Channel build (version 22458) was more notable for its known issues, including bug checks for Surface Pro X users and a mystery DRIVER_PNP_WATCHDOG error when attempting to update to a recent build. Microsoft does and doesn't want you to know it won't stop you manually installing Windows 11 on older PCs.Windows 11 will roll out from October 5 as Microsoft hypes new hardware.Don't like the new Windows 11 Start or Taskbar? Don't worry – Microsoft's got your back.Microsoft releases new Windows 11 builds, confirms running on an Apple M1 'is not a supported scenario'.It's understood Beta and Dev Channel Insider builds of Windows 11 going forward will enforce hardware requirements on virtual machines, and most likely in the final release.
Hypervisors and emulators that satisfy Redmond's requirements, such as Parallels and Qemu, should continue to work with Windows 11. The Register asked Microsoft to comment on this, and we'll let you know if it gets back to us. One has to parse the text a bit like a lawyer reading a contract.
MS doesn't actually come out and directly say that Win 11 won't support VirtualBox or other hypervisors (unless and until their makers add TPM support). As noted in the VirtualBox forums, Windows 11 Dev Channel build 22458 rejects Oracle's hypervisor with the error: "This PC doesn't meet the minimum system requirements." Until VirtualBox manages to meet the hardware requirements that Microsoft said it wouldn't check, it can't run the OS.Īs some have noted, the wording from Redmond makes it clear VirtualBox won't work without directly spelling it out:
And that includes Oracle's VirtualBox, which for one thing doesn't provide the TPM chipset that Windows 11 looks for.
