Whether you need a quick virtual chat with a registered nurse, or want to book a massage therapy appointment. But for more serious problems, like a processor that isn't on one of Microsoft's compatibility lists, your only options are to upgrade to a supported processor (not always an option but possible for some AMD Ryzen desktops in particular), replace the computer, continue running Windows 10, or run an 'unsupported' Windows 11 install that may or may not receive updates going forward. PC Health Check is a Microsoft-released tool helping users determine if their Windows 10 PCs can run Windows 11, the brand-new operating system. The PC Health app helps you get the care you need.

The new version of the Health Check app makes recommendations if your PC has easily fixable compatibility problems, like if there's a firmware TPM module that simply isn't enabled, if Secure Boot is turned off, or if you need a RAM or disk space upgrade. In our testing, it's still pretty bad at guessing the approximate age of the PC that it's running on, but it at least presents more detailed information when it's telling you that you won't be able to upgrade to a new OS. Further Reading Why Windows 11 has such strict hardware requirements, according to MicrosoftĪ new version of the PC Health Check app, now available via this official Microsoft link to people without Windows Insider accounts, fixes that problem.
