The company also announced that users on unsupported systems will be able to install the Windows 11 with ISO if interested. But this will leave them with a system that is not officially supported by Microsoft.
The company has said that this unsupported status may still mean that those computers won't receive critical updates security.

Recall that the minimum requirements hardware were changed in late August by Microsoft due to public backlash. So it is still possible that the requirements will change again before or even after the official release of Windows 11.
