noob with win 11 upgrade

I've installed Win 11 in all kinds of old hardware. You just need to mKe a usb stick as you can't use the upgrade
assistant. You can then either boot from USB for fresh install and do the reg key trick during install, or set a reg key in windows and run the setup from the USB.

Can you do this easily to upgrade from Windows 10? I’m a little unsure as there is so much conflicting advice out there!!
 
For future reference @BUDFORCE
Just use Rufus to make a W11 USB installer, it is very simplistic yet does everything that you need :)

When using Rufis, once you goto click 'start', a new menu will pop up, giving you various options, one of them is to remove the requirement for TPM ;)
You can also remove the requirement for an online Microsoft account :D

Yeah, I did it on my Dad's laptop. Just create installation media or extract the ISO to C: and go in sources folder and run setupprep.exe /product server

Awesome, thank you. That sounds like an easy fix, rather than some of the stuff I’ve seen elsewhere!!
