If you have already installed Windows 11 version 21H2 on a system that does not support TPM, Secure Boot, or the processor doesn't supported for Windows 11, you may have noticed that the latest version of Windows 11 22H2 does not appear for installation in Windows Update. Having to deal with Microsoft throwing watermarks on the screen or harassing users to upgrade perfectly good hardware is annoying - especially when newer laptop hardware is so thermally constricted that it can't perform to the level of older hardware.This guide step-by-step instructions on how to update to Windows 11 22H2 on unsupported hardware (with no TPM, Secure Boot or a supported CPU for Windows 11). I really hate the UI design of Windows 11, but I use my laptop so infrequently that I'm fine with 11 being on there. The note about an unsupported driver or process design is not applicable to the 7600 through 7900 series CPUs. TPM firmware has nothing to do with it - the cutoff is arbitrary. The only issue is that Microsoft marked the CPU as unsupported even though they support a few other 7000-series CPUs. There's no technical reason why it cannot run Windows 11 without the watermark.

Why is the biggest disappointment- the 7700hq laptop the only one with the watermark? Because the TPM 2.0 firmware is out of date and ASUS made the laptop for W10 and never thought to put out an update. Rluker5 said:But as far as this watermark: it show up in my 7700hq laptop
