为 Windows 11 Insider Preview 做准备(Preparing for Windows 11 Insider Preview)
将Windows 11安装在我们的主计算机上以查看它的运行方式很诱人，但请不要这样做。如果可能的话，把它放在一台不是你日常依赖的 PC 上，或者将它安装在像Hyper-V这样的(Hyper-V)虚拟机(virtual machine)中。
Windows 11 Insider Preview尚未完全出炉。它只是让我们知道会发生什么并提供反馈。它会有问题。
许多设备无法满足一些系统要求。(system requirements)没关系。Windows 11有一个版本或构建，称为Dev Channel构建，即使设备不满足要求，它也会尝试安装。但是，一旦Windows 11向公众发布，该版本将停止更新。
微软确实有一个PC 健康检查(PC Health Check)应用程序来验证系统准备情况。但是，如果设备发生故障，它没有解释原因。该应用程序还存在其他一些技术问题，因此，微软(Microsoft)停止提供它。他们可能会在Windows 11(Windows 11)公开发布之前再次提供它。

Windows 11的系统要求与 Windows 10 或任何操作系统略有不同。
最低系统要求(Minimum System Requirements)
不寻常的要求包括TPM版本 2.0、UEFI、Microsoft帐户以及与 Internet 的有效连接。安装后，Windows 11 Insider版本不需要互联网连接。如果尚未使用Microsoft帐户登录设备，请(Microsoft)注册 Microsoft 帐户(sign up for a Microsoft account)。
检查 TPM 2.0 和 UEFI 的设备(Check the Device for TPM 2.0 and UEFI)

- 选择开始(Start )菜单按钮并开始输入system。系统信息(System Information)将出现在结果中。选择它。
- 系统信息(System Information )窗口将打开以显示系统摘要(System Summary)。向下滚动到BIOS 模式(BIOS Mode )并验证它是否读取UEFI。如果不是，则需要将UEFI BIOS 模式更改为(UEFI BIOS Mode)UEFI。
- 在Find what字段中输入trusted并选择(trusted)Find。如果设备有TPM，搜索会找到它。
在这种情况下，它是在内存(Memory )子类别中找到的。
系统信息实用程序也是一种(System Information)查看计算机规格(see a computer’s specifications)以满足其他Windows 11要求的简单方法。

How to Get Windows 11 Now from Insider Preview
Has there bееn a more anticipated version of Windows than Windоws 11? From the myѕterious hints to the sсreen capturеs showing a huge departure from the traditional Wіndows look and feel, Windows 11 is intriguing. So how do we get our hands оn it to make our own judgments? Read on to see how to get Windows 11 now, as a Microsoft Windows Insider preview.
Preparing for Windows 11 Insider Preview
It’s tempting to put Windows 11 on our main computers to see how it’ll run, but please don’t do that. If possible, put it on a PC that isn’t one you depend on daily or install it in a virtual machine like Hyper-V.
The Windows 11 Insider Preview is not fully baked. It’s just there to let us know what to expect and for us to provide feedback. It will have problems.
There are some system requirements that many devices won’t satisfy. That’s ok. There’s a version, or build, of Windows 11, called the Dev Channel build, that will try to install even if the device doesn’t meet requirements. However, that build will stop being updated as soon as Windows 11 is released to the general public.
Microsoft did have a PC Health Check app to verify system readiness. However, if the device failed, it didn’t explain why. The app also had some other technical issues So, Microsoft stopped making it available. They may make it available again just prior to the public release of Windows 11.
Is My Computer Ready For Windows 11?
The system requirements for Windows 11 are a bit different than Windows 10, or likely any operating system.
Minimum System Requirements
The unusual requirements include TPM version 2.0, UEFI, a Microsoft account, and a working connection to the internet. Once installed, the Windows 11 Insider build doesn’t require an internet connection. If a Microsoft account isn’t already being used to sign in to the device, go sign up for a Microsoft account.
Check the Device for TPM 2.0 and UEFI
There’s a quick and easy way to see if the device has the TPM v2.0 module and is configured to run in Unified Extensible Firmware Interface (UEFI) mode.
- Select the Start menu button and start typing system. System Information will appear in the results. Select it.
- The System Information window will open to show a System Summary. Scroll down to BIOS Mode and verify that it reads UEFI. If it doesn’t, the UEFI BIOS Mode will need to be changed to UEFI.
- Enter trusted in the Find what field and select Find. If the device has a TPM, the search will find it.
In this case, it was found in the Memory subcategory.
The System Information utility is a simple and easy way to see a computer’s specifications for the other Windows 11 requirements, too.
Get Windows 11 Insider Preview
To get the Windows 11 Insider preview, you will need to join the Windows Insider Program. It’s a Microsoft-run community of Windows fans and professionals who want to see the latest and greatest and give feedback to Microsoft.

- The Pick your Insider settings window will show up to three options. If the device’s hardware meets Windows 11’s requirements, choose Beta Channel. If not, choose Dev Channel. Dev Channel will install on devices that don’t meet Windows 11’s requirements.
If the Dev Channel build is used, the device will stop receiving Windows 11 Insider builds once Windows 11 is released to the general public. To continue to receive new Insider builds, the device must have a clean install of Windows 10.
If the device meets the hardware requirements, it can be enrolled in the Insider program again and receive the next Windows 11 beta build. If it doesn’t meet the hardware requirements and it’s re-enrolled in the Insider program, it will only receive future Windows 10 Insider builds.
- An information band will show links to the Microsoft Insider Privacy Statement and the Microsoft Insider Program Agreement. Select Confirm to continue.
- On the next band, select Restart Now.
- After the device restart and login, go to Start menu > Settings > Update & Security > Windows Insider. Notice that the selected Insider Channel and Account are shown. Also, note the option to stop receiving preview builds.
